Sony PXW-Z200 Solid State Memory Camcorder
Description
Capture stunning 4K HDR footage, with colours, textures and details that stand out. The Z200’s powerful 1.0-type Exmor RS™ stacked CMOS sensor delivers images with high sensitivity and low noise, at up to 120fps in 4K, 240fps in FHD. Preserve every detail with full-pixel readout and real-time BIONZ XR™ image processing, while compatibility with 709tone and S-Cinetone™ makes colour-matching to Cinema Line and Sony system cameras easy.
Intelligent features for smarter shooting
Depend on Sony innovations that help you to capture the best content possible. Sony's advanced AI Processing Unit can recognize human subjects, while the Fast Hybrid AF system tracks your subject and maintains precise focus at all times. An Electronic Variable ND Filter means you can achieve the best exposure for your shots, in a wide range of lighting conditions, or the Auto ND function will automatically set optimal exposure for you.
Reliable streaming and broadcast TV friendly connectivity
Built-in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi – in concert with Sony's C3 Portal (paid) or XDCAM Pocket apps – powers simple, high-quality streaming direct from the camera. Remote operation via Sony's Monitor & Control app allows you to check angles and monitor shooting from your smartphone or tablet. The Z200 also offers built-in 12G-SDI with four-times the bandwidth of 3G-SDI over a single cable, TC input / output and broadcast friendly XAVC (MXF).
1.0-type Exmor RS CMOS sensor
For imaging performance otherwise unobtainable for a compact camcorder, the Z200 relies upon large approx. 14.0 megapixel (effective) 1.0-type Exmor RS CMOS image sensor. Its unique stacked structure – with back illuminated pixels layered over integrated signal processing circuits – enables both faster read-out speeds and superior low-light performance due to more light reaching the sensor.
BIONZ XR image processing
Integrated within the image sensor, the latest generation BIONZ XR image processor enables higher frame-rates, faster autofocus, improved Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW) control and superior noise reduction. It extracts maximum performance from the high-resolution image sensor, effortlessly capturing the most subtle textures and finest detail. 5K oversampling with full-pixel readout condenses ample image information into stunning 4K (3840 x 2160) 60p video.
Built-in Electronic Variable ND Filter
Seamlessly adjust the Electronic Variable ND Filter to suit a variety of light levels. Move from 1/4 to 1/128 ND with a simple dial adjustment or rely on the Auto ND function to maintain the optimum exposure for you—especially useful when moving quickly between indoor and outdoor environments.
Flexible camera control
The Z200 is designed with the flexibility to operate according to your individual preferences and workflow demands. Two independent control rings for focus/zoom and two dials for IRIS/ND Variable are located side-by-side, allowing for effortless control of exposure along with focus and zoom. The Z200 also has 12 user assignable buttons (ASSIGN 1-11 and FOCUS PUSH AUTO button) that you can set to control almost any camera feature.
