1/6" Advanced HAD™ CCD Imager,
Step-up
680K Pixels Gross
1/6" Advanced HAD™ (Hole
Accumulation Diode) CCD with 340K
(effective) pixels provides stunning
detail and clarity with exceptional
video (up to 500 lines of horizontal
resolution) and still image
performance.
MiniDV Recording
Offers up to 500 lines of horizontal
resolution, 3X the color bandwidth and
a significantly higher signal/noise ratio,
to provide spectacular video
performance.
20X Optical/800X Digital Zoom
The optical zoom helps to bring the
action close up from far away. In
addition, the Digital Zoom
Interpolation means that extreme
digital zooming is clearer, with less
distortion than previous types of digital
zooms.
Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® Vario-
Tessar® Lens
Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced
optical multi-layer coating that offers
less glare and flare with increased
contrast. This results in vivid image
brilliance, true-to-life color saturation
and perfect renditions of subtle tones.
Super SteadyShot® Picture Stabilization
System
Picture stabilization system that uses
motion sensors to detect and
compensate for camera "shake"
without compromising picture quality
like some other digital stabilization
systems.
2.5" Touch Panel SwivelScreen™ LCD
Display (123K Pixels)
Provides excellent viewing clarity with
improved resolution. The high resolution
123K pixel LCD screen rotates up to 270
degrees for multiple viewing angles
providing sharp, detailed images for
monitoring or playback.
5
USB Streaming
Stay connected to family and friends
by broadcasting live video with audio
over the internet using the USB interface.
You can even playback your favorite
recorded scene on the camcorder's
tape. It's like having your own video
conferencing system.
1
i.LINK® DV Interface
A digital high-speed bi-directional
interface which provides Audio/Video
communication between two
compatible devices. This connection
allows for pure digital transfer between
devices equipped with an IEEE1394
interface, such as camcorders, digital
VTRs, capture cards and PCs.
Digital Still Memory Mode with Memory
3
Stick Duo™ Media
Capture still images at 640x480
resolution, directly onto Memory Stick
Duo™ Media for easy transfer to PCs for
emailing, printing or sharing with other
compatible Memory Stick™ devices.
InfoLITHIUM® Battery with AccuPower™
2
Meter System
Charge the battery at anytime because
unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium)
batteries, Sony's rechargeable Lithium
Ion batteries are not subject to a life
shortening "memory effect". Sony's
exclusive AccuPower™ meter displays
the battery time remaining in minutes, in
either the viewfinder or on the LCD
screen.
Tele Macro Function
Useful for shooting close up shots, but
without having the camcorder casting
a shadow on the subject. Images shot
in the Tele Macro Mode will have the
subject properly focused with the
background unfocussed so that the
subject stands out.
MiniDV Handycam® Camcorder
NightShot® Plus Infrared System
With Sony's NightShot Infrared System
you can capture natural looking video,
even when shooting in low light. Record
subjects up to 10 feet away using the
built-in infrared system, but without the
overall monochrome color common
with earlier low-light recording systems.
Manual Focus
Allows the user to manually adjust the
focus of the camcorder using the touch
panel. Manual focusing also allows the
user to control the focus in difficult
situations where either the environment
or the subject does not allow the
camcorder's auto focus to perform
optimally, such as when shooting
through a window or in a crowded
environment.
On Screen Zoom and Record Controls
For additional control of the
camcorder, the DCR-HC36 features
Zoom and Record buttons on the frame
of the LCD screen. This allows the user
more flexibility when holding the
camcorder, especially in overhead or
low angle shots.
Stamina® Battery Power Management
4
System
Using the optional NP-FP90 InfoLITHIUM®
Battery, the DCR-HC36 can continuously
record for up to 9 hours (viewfinder) or
up to 7 hours (LCD) on a single full
charge, providing extra long battery
life.
Program AE (Auto Exposure) Modes
Program AE modes make recording
easy even when filming in challenging
situations. Choose from Beach & Ski,
Landscape, Portrait, Sports Lesson,
Spotlight or Sunset & Moon modes.
Picture Effects
Get creative when recording or playing
back your videos with Sony's Picture
Effect Modes. Effects available in
Camera mode: Mosaic and Pastel.
Effects available in Playback mode:
Monotone, Negative Art, Sepia and
Solarize.
Easy Handycam Button
Using a camcorder can be intimidating
for some people, so with a press of the
Easy Handycam button, most of the
advanced features of the camcorder
are "locked out" leaving only the
buttons essential for recording
operational.
