PXW-X180 1/3” 3CMOS Solid-State Memory

The PXW-X180 is the latest addition to the XDCAM™ Series. Ideal for broadcast and professional video production applications, it features three 1/3” Full HD Exmor® CMOS sensors and a newly developed 25x optical zoom G Lens with 26 mm wide angle. The PXW-X180 records in MPEG HD422 at 50 Mbps, a format widely preferred by broadcasters and production houses today, and XAVC Intra and Long GOP, which enables 10-bit sampling for high-definition recording with rich tonal expression. It can also record in MPEG HD420 at 35 Mbps, AVCHD™ and DV.

Newly developed 25x optical zoom Sony G Lens with Variable ND filter 26 mm wide angle The PXW-X180 is Sony’s first professional camcorder to The new camcorder‘s lens offers Sony G Lens quality, a 26 mm wide-angle feature a variable ND filter. A new filter device has been view, and a 25x zoom range (35 mm equivalent 26 mm to 650 mm), which developed to electronically control density and make it versatile enough to handle a wide range of shooting situations. enable continuous setting adjustment from 1/4ND to Independent manual zoom and focus rings with end-stop and iris control 1/128ND with simple dial operation. Using this filter in are provided, and a slide mechanism on the focus ring enables easy conjunction with different iris and shutter speed switching between auto and manual focusing. settings to adjust depth of field and brightness allows the use of shooting techniques such as slow shutter shooting in daylight and other bright light conditions.

Multi-Interface Shoe An accessory attached to the Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe can be controlled by the PXW-X180. If the new HVL-LBPC video light, launched alongside the PXW-X180, is attached to the MI shoe, video light power can be switched on and off from the camcorder. If an optional UWP-D11 or UWP-D12 wireless microphone receiver is connected, power supply and cable-free audio signal input are possible, minimising the need Compatible with XAVC and a wide range of for extra batteries and removing the need for other recording formats additional cabling. In addition to XAVC Intra/Long GOP, the PXW-X180 records in MPEG2, AVCHD and DV. When recording in XAVC, it uses the MXF file format, efficiently Wireless functions*1 for file transmission and remote control compressing full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution using the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 Near Field Communication (NFC*2) functions allow easy, one-touch wireless CODEC.
