Sony HVR-Z7E handheld HDV 1080i camcorder with interchangeable 1/3inch zeiss lens (Includes MRC-1K memory recorder)

Sporting three 1/3" CMOS sensors, true 1080/25p mode and an interchangeable Carl Zeiss lens, this new camcorder will deliver unprecedented performance and flexibility to the HDV market.

The camcorder also has HDMI output and is compatible with L-series Li-Ion batteries as used on the V1E / Z1E camcorders.

The new camcorders use Sony's new 1/3-inch 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system enhanced by the technology of Exmor. With its 45-degree rotated pixel layout, the 3 ClearVid CMOS Sensor system offers sufficient pixel surface area while it keeps high resolution. The technology of Exmor features a unique column-parallel analog-to-digital conversion technique and dual noise canceling, resulting in high quality digital signals with extremely low noise, similar to the imaging technology used in the PMW-EX1 camera.
