SONY USHERS IN NEXT WAVE OF HIGH-DEF


At a press conference in New York on July 18, Sony was first out-of-the-gate to release camcorders using the new AVCHD format with two new models. The HDR-UX1 records AVCHD signals to standard 8 cm (min) DVD discs and the HDR-SR1, which records up to 10 hours to a hard drive.

"Sony’s new HD camcorders bring home movies fully into the home theater fold. They feature HDMI™ outputs for simple, one-cord connection to an HD television with no data conversion and subsequent degradation of picture quality."
