Betacam SP - The Industry's Broadcast Quality Standard

Sony BVW-D600: For the highest quality Betacam picture, we use the Sony BVW-D600 camera. The Sony 600 has a digital Betacam head, but records to regular Betacam SP tape. The digital camera is programmable so we can achieve a wide variety of "looks" in seconds, and the Betacam SP deck makes this camera compatible with editing systems worldwide. This powerful combination gives us the clearest, sharpest image with the best color, all for affordable Betacam SP rates.

Sony DXC-537: Our clients love the Sony DXC-537 Betacam SP camera, the "industry workhorse." The 537 provides excellent imaging at the lowest Betacam prices imaginable. You'll love the picture quality; our engineer has tweeked the output of this camera to match some of Sony's most expensive Betacam cameras. Beautiful edges, great color! The 537 also features Clearscan technology, for shooting computer screens without that pesky roll bar.
