VIDEOCRAFT have recently taken delivery of a brand new Sony HDCAM SR production system, putting the highest quality HD format into the reach of Australian DOP's and producers. The 2/3" HD camera produces full 1920 x 1080 resolution images at up to 60 frames per second progressive scan. The camera can be fitted with a broad range of production accessories including a range of HD cine style lenses, but it is small and light enough to be used handheld if required, as there is no recorder in camera.
