DSR-300
*Optional items are included.
True Digital Camcorder
The DSR-300 is a “True Digital
Camcorder”. The signal is maintained
in the digital domain. This allows for
higher image quality, free of artifacts
and the loss of resolution typical of
multiple A/D and D/A conversion. This
is a major advantage for the user.

CCD sensors, which result in high
sensitivity, a low smear level, a high
signal-to-noise ratio of 62 dB and a high
horizontal resolution of 800 TV lines.
Low Smear Level
High Mobility
The DSR-300 is remarkably
portable with the following
features.
The Power HAD CCD sensors give a
low smear level of -110 dB (typical).
This provides more freedom to shoot
high-light subjects.
High Sensitivity
The Power HAD CCD sensors achieve a
high sensitivity of F 11.0 (at 2000 lx,
3200 K), the same sensitivity as that of
the Sony DXC-D30. This allows for
greater opportunity to shoot under
extremely low-light conditions.
● Low Power Consumpution
The DSR-300 camera head uses only
20 W. A maximum of approximately
80 minutes recording time can be
achieved with one fully-charged BP-L40
Lithium-ion battery.
● 10-bit DSP
● Compact and Lightweight
By adopting high-density circuit boards
and a smaller recording head drum, the
DSR-300 is remarkably small. It weighs
only 5.7 kg (12 lb 9 oz) including a lens,
viewfinder, tape, lithium-ion battery and
microphone.
(Digital Signal Processing) LSI
Like the DXC-D30, the DSR-300
includes 10-bit DSP LSI, technology that
delivers one of the best picture
performance in the industry. The
DSR-300 also inherits innovative camera
features such as TruEye™ and
DynaLatitude™ technologies.
Notes:
A fully-charged BP-L60A lasts for up to
approximately three hours of recording time.
A fully-charged BP-L90A lasts for up to
approximately four hours and fifty minutes
recording time.

● TruEye™ Process
The TruEye function is Sony’s term for
innovative digital signal processing
technology. In conventional RGB analog
or digital processing, some non-linear
signal processing takes place after
gamma correction, such as white clip
and knee correction, and can result in
hue factor distortion - a phenomenon
that is particularly obvious in extreme
high-light conditions. This problem is
virtually eliminated by the TruEye
process which manages video signal
data at three levels - brightness, hue,
and saturation - exactly as the human
eye works. The result is reproduced
images with a wide dynamic range and
without hue distortion.
professional use, which is designed to
match the body height of the DSR-300.
It has a high charge capability in a small
and light package, providing continuous
camcorder operation for approximately
80 minutes.
● Compact Crew Package with
the LC-300SFT
For acquisition, you need a compact
crew package. The Sony LC-300SFT is
a soft carrying case exclusively designed
for the DSR-300. It is small and
lightweight (3.1 kg /6 lb 13 oz). With
several outside and inside pockets, it
can hold shooting accessories such as
batteries, a battery charger, wireless
receiver, and other items as well as the
DSR-300 with a lens, VF and
Since Lithium-ion batteries do not suffer
from a “memory effect”, they do not have
to be fully discharged to remain their full
power capacity.
microphone attached. The case is easy
to carry, using the robust shoulder belt;
a single person can transport all the
required equipment.
Superb Picture Quality
The DSR-300 captures superior pictures
by adopting a 10-bit DSP and three
1/2-inch Power HAD CCDs.
Notes:
The Sony BP-L60A/L90A can also be used with
the DSR-300.
The Sony NP-1B and the BP-90A NiCd Batteries
can also be attached to the DSR-300 using the
Sony DC-L1 and DC-L90 respectively.

● DynaFit™ Shoulder Pad
The DSR-300 is equipped with a
“DynaFit “ shoulder pad, which is made
of a shape-memory material. This
innovative shoulder pad does not require
forward/backward adjustment. It
comfortably molds to any shoulder
without slipping, maintaining a very good

● Selectable Built-in Filters
The DSR-300 has four built-in filters:
3200 K/3000 K (switchable via the
Viewfinder menu), 5600 K, 5600 K+ 1/8
and 5600 K+ 1/64. This four-filter
construction is the same as used in
Sony 2/3-inch cameras such as the
DXC-D30, and makes the DSR-300
suitable for use under virtually any light
condition.
● Menu Control by Jog Dial
Operation
The DSR-300 incorporates a jog dial
controlled from the viewfinder menu. The
user simply selects his or her desired
menu item and sets the value by easy,
one-fingered jog dial operation. This jog

rate of 4:1:1 provides superior picture
quality, a superb multi-generation
capability and excellent production
flexibility.
● Dual Zebra
The DSR-300 has two simultaneous
types of zebra patterns - ‘ZEBRA 1’ and
‘ZEBRA 2’. ‘ZEBRA 1’ can be set within
a range of 70 IRE to 90 IRE, in 1 IRE
steps. ‘ZEBRA 2’ provides a zebra
pattern in any area with a more than
100% video level. Either ZEBRA 1 or
ZEBRA 2 can be displayed. Dual zebra

● Long Recording Time
(maximum 184 minutes)
The DSR-300 boasts remarkably long
recording time. Both mini cassettes
(PDVM series) and standard cassettes
(PDV series) can be used with the
DSR-300. In using the PDV-184ME
(Standard cassette) the DSR-300
provides a maximum recording time of
184 minutes.

achieve correct picture exposure by
using the Iris Control in combination with
Auto Gain Control (AGC) and CCD AE
(Auto Exposure, uses variable CCD
shutter speeds). This is called the Total

● Freeze Mix Function
With conventional cameras, when the
camera operator needs to shoot a
subject in the same framework as that of
a previously recorded subject, it is very
difficult to perfectly re-position the
subject. With the DSR-300, a picture
previously recorded on the DVCAM tape
can be superimposed on the viewfinder
screen, so that the camera operator can
easily frame or re-position the subject
just as in the previous shot. Combined
with the SetupLog function, the retake
shot become a breeze.
● Auto Tracing White Balance
(ATW)
In the DSR-300, tracing of the white area
in Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW) is
fast enough to meet professional
demands. This also improves the
accuracy of white balance adjustment.
● Edit Search
The DSR-300 incorporates an Edit
Search function. It’s control button is
located on the side panel to allow easy
access while shooting.
● EZ Mode
The camera can be instantly set to a
standard or auto position simply by
pressing the EZ Mode button. The DSR-

Ease of Operation
To ensure the best possible results with simple operation,
the DSR-300 incorporates:
● EZ Focus
EZ Focus is a function to help the user
focus precisely without stopping down
the lens. Pushing the EZ Focus button
automatically opens the iris so that the
depth of field is reduced, making critical
focusing easier. At the same time, the
electronic shutter is automatically set to
obtain the correct light level. The EZ
Focus function is overridden while
recording.

BC-L50 Lithium-ion Battery Charger
The Sony BC-L50 is a newly developed
battery charger which can be used with
Lithium-ion battery packs such as the
BP-L40. This compact and easy to carry
unit quickly charges up to two Lithium-
ion batteries and use a unique new time-

The DXF-701WS also has a TAKE tally
lamp for use with the ClipLink system.
The TAKE tally can also be used as a
second tally lamp.
To enhance the performance of the
DSR-300, the Sony VCL-714BXA is a
1/2-inch x14 zoom lens with two newly
developed 7-pin hot-shoe connectors.
This 14-pin hot-shoe connector interface
allows more precise auto iris control,
an F stop number display on the
viewfinder screen and zoom remote
control (with the Sony RM-VJ1 Remote
Control Unit) in addition to the lens
controls enabled with the conventional
VCL-714BX.
● Reliable and Ergonomic Design
A diecast aluminum body makes the
DXF-701WS extremely durable. The
viewfinder’s position can be adjusted in
a broad horizontal plane according to
the operator’s preference. The large
diameter eye cup not only eases eye
strain but also simplifies focusing. A
wide range of diopter adjustments
(-3 to 0) is provided to compensate for
differences in eyesight.
