 Step-up

 

 

 

2.1 Megapixel (Gross) ClearVid™  
CMOS Sensor
1/3" ClearVid CMOS Sensor with 1430K 
(effective) pixels provides stunning 
detail and clarity with exceptional 
video (up to 530 lines of horizontal 
resolution) and still image 
performance. The Megapixel 
technology enhances your digital 
videos and digital still (3980K) 
photography performance.

DVDFormat Video Recording
The DVD recording format delivers 
digital picture and sound quality 
comparable to that of MiniDV, but on 
DVD. Playback of the DVDs couldn't be 
simpler. After finalizing the disc in the 
camcorder, the disc can play back in 
most DVD Players, computers and even 
PlayStation® 2 and PlayStation 3 video 
game consoles .

DVD-R/RW/+RW/+R DL Compatible
The DCR-DVD408 is compatible with a 
variety of DVD formats allowing the 
ease of use and simplicity found in DVD 
Media. With DVD+RW media there is not 
a need to finalize the disc (minimum 
recording required). Simply remove the 
disc and insert the media into a 
compatible DVD Player.

10X Optical/80X Digital Zoom
The optical zoom helps to bring the 
action close up from far away. In 
addition, the Digital Zoom 
interpolation means that extreme 
digital zooming is clearer, with less 
distortion than previous types of digital 
zooms.

Professional Quality Carl Zeiss® Vario-
Sonnar® T Lens
Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced 
optical multi-layer coating for 
increased contrast. This results in vivid 
image brilliance, true-to-life color 
saturation and perfect renditions of 
subtle tones. The additional T coating 
on the lens further reduces unwanted 
glare and flare.

Dolby® Digital 5.1ch Recording
The DCR-DVD408 will record in Dolby 
Digital 5.1ch surround sound with a 
built-in microphone. By recording in 5.1 
channel surround sound you can now 
experience your home movies with 
active sounds coming from all 
directions. Enjoy your personal home 
movies the way you experienced them 
while recording.

2.7" Wide (16:9) Touch Panel Clear 
Photo Plus™  LCD (211K Pixels)  
The 2.7" Wide (16:9) LCD screen 
provides excellent viewing clarity with 
improved resolution. The high resolution 
211K pixel LCD screen rotates up to 270 
degrees for multiple viewing angles 
providing sharp, detailed images for 
monitoring or playback, and the 
widescreen format makes shooting in 
16:9 mode and composing shots even 
easier.

Smooth Slow Recording
By increasing the record rate from 60 
fields per second (fps) to 240 fps for 3 
seconds allowing you to capture 3 
seconds of fast motion and play the 
video back in 12 seconds. This is great 
for analyzing a golf swing or a viewing 
a bird in flight. In addition, record an 
audio track to narrate what is being 
seen during the video.

Memory Stick Duo™  Media Slot   
Capture still images up to 2304x1728 
resolution, directly onto Memory Stick 
Duo™  Media for easy transfer to PCs for 
emailing, printing or sharing with other 
compatible Memory Stick® devices.

Super SteadyShot® Picture Stabilization 
System
An advanced version of Sony's 
SteadyShot® system that controls an 
even higher range of shake and 
vibration frequencies, to achieve an 
even higher level of smoothness without 
degradation of video like some other 
image stabilization systems.

On Screen Zoom and Record Buttons
For additional control of the 
camcorder, the DCR-DVD408 features 
Zoom and Record buttons on the frame 
of the LCD screen. This allows the user 
more flexibility when holding the 
camcorder, especially in overhead or 
low angle shots.

USB 2.0 Interface

to connect your DVD Handycam 
Camcorder to the computer for fast 
transfer of video and still images to 
your computer for editing. The

making copies of your DVDs or burning 
edited movies.
