Sony HVR-MRC1K CF Memory Recorder

Manufacturer: Sony

  • Overview

    The HVR-MRC1K consists of the HVR-MRC1 main unit, HVRA-CR1 cradle, cold-shoe adaptor and an i.LINK cable. Extremely compact and lightweight, the HVR-MRC1K can be mounted on a HDV / DVCAM camcorder, thereby converting it to a 'hybrid' recording system with CompactFlash solid-state memory and tape. It allows the user to record video on a tape and CompactFlash (CF) card simultaneously.

    The widely available CF card can be used to offer secure recording, removable media convenience, high durability against external vibration, and high-speed file transfer to a computer. It is possible to record for about 72 minutes on a 16-GB CF card.

  • Items Included

    • When the built-in down-converter of the connected HDV camcorder is active, SD images can be recorded on a CF card while HD images are recorded to tape.
    • With connection to a video device (such as a VTR or NLE system) via i.LINK, it can be used to input/output a HDV/DVCAM/DV stream.
    • The file format is M2T for HDV mode and AVI or RawDV for DVCAM/DV modes. In the same fashion as HVR-DR60 operation, these files can be edited using popular NLE software.
