Now it is up for sale.Sony PVW-2800 Betacam SP Studio Player/Recorder with RS-422A The PVW-2800P is a Recorder/Player inheriting the advanced performance of the Betacam SP format, it assures maximum compatibility with the BVW series Betacam SP products and a wide range of their peripheral equipment. It is equipped with a built-in Time Base Corrector and Time Code Generator/Reader. In addition to composite and component video input and outputs, it offers S-Video In/Out connectors, an RS-422A control port and an optional U-Matic Dub Out capability. This comprehensive interfacing makes the PVW-2800P easy to integrate into existing editing systems. Features Superior Picture Quality The adoption of the world standard Betacam SP recording format results in the superior picture quality of the PVW-2800P. This format uses the component recording, in which the chrominance signals (R-Y, B-Y) are time compressed and recorded on one track, using the CTDM (Compressed Time Division Multiplex) system originally developed by Sony, while the luminance (Y) signal is recorded on a separate track. Therefore cross colour and cross luminance effects do not exist in this system. This component two-track recording technology is combined with high frequency FM carriers for each track, providing very wide bandwidths for both the luminance and chrominance signals. Thus pictures with detailed luminance and chrominance information can be reproduced. These characteristics create the excellent multi-generation picture performance of the Betacam SP format. In order to obtain the maximum performance of the Betacam SP format, the PVW-2800P uses metal particle tapes exclusively for recording. Of course, it can play back both metal and oxide tapes and assures the two-way playback compatibility with BVW series Betacam SP VTRs. High Audio Quality The PVW-2800P provides two longitudinal audio channels. Thanks to the tape speed of the format and the adoption of the proven DolbyTM C-type NR (Noise Reduction), the PVW-2800P offers high quality audio with a wide dynamic range even at high frequencies, minimum distortion and excellent S/N ratio. Longer Operating Time The PVW-2800P accepts both L-size and S-size cassettes, giving operating times of over 100 minutes and over 35 minutes respectively. Both grades of Sony Betacam SP videocassettes, the BCT series and the SBT series, can be used in the PVW-2800P. For the highest possible performance, the BCT series is recommended. Compact and Lightweight Compactness and lightweight are key factors designed into the PVW-2800P, which weighs approximately 25kg (55 lb 2 oz), and is 5 units high (19-inch rack mountable). The power consumption is 150 W. VTR to VTR Comprehensive Editing Facility The PVW-2800P provides a comprehensive, built-in VTR to VTR editing facility. In addition to the insert and assemble edit functions, which are equipped with auto preview / review, the PVW-2800P also provides an audio split editing capability with independent IN and OUT memories. The PVW-2800P meets the requirements of a modern editing system, having frame-by-frame editing point trim, selectable pre-roll time and auto edit in/out functions, delivering frame accurate editing without any additional control hardware. With its DMC (Dynamic Motion Control) editing function, the PVW-2800P can perform slow motion editing, when a DTTM equipped VTR, such as the BVW-65P or BVW-75P, with RS-422A communication is used as the player VTR. Built-in Time Base Corrector The PVW-2800P is provided with a built-in TBC (Time Base Corrector) as standard. A superior quality output video is obtained directly from the PVW-2800P, with no additional time base correction required. Advanced high quality digital dropout compensation also ensures consistent picture performance. Built-in Time Code Generator/Reader The generation and reading of both VITC (Vertical Interval Time Code) and LTC (Longitudinal Time Code) to the EBU format, together with user bits, come as standard in the PVW-2800P, LTC can be automatically recorded on the dedicated time code track. Time code or user bits settings can be easily executed using the HOLD/SET button and the search dial located on the control panel. External / internal time code, REGEN / PRESET or REC-RUN / FREE-RUN selections are available on the subcontrol panel. Character Display The PVW-2800P is provided with a built-in character generator and characters can be superimposed on the signals from Video Output 3 or the Monitor Output. It displays time code generator/reader data (VITC/LTC/U-BIT) and CTL timer data. VTR function status, including shuttle tape speed, can also be displayed by accessing the setup menu. Furthermore, error number and status can be automatically displayed when the error is detected. Character display is On/Off switchable from the subcontrol panel. When the PVW-2800P is operated under the setup menu mode, the initial setup menu is automatically displayed from the character generator. High Speed Picture Search By using the search dial incorporated in the PVW-2800P, picture search can be made at various speeds over a range of up to 24 times normal speed in forward and reverse. A recognizable colour picture can be obtained at up to ten times (24 times in monochrome) normal speed in forward and reverse. In the jog mode, tape movement accurately follows the rotation of the search dial in both directions. Detachable Control Panel The control panel of the PVW-2800P can be tilted at up to 90 degrees. Alternatively, the control panel can be removed from the machine to provide remote control from a distance of up to 5m by using the optional BKW-2010 Control Panel Extension Kit and BK-803 Control Panel Case Specifications Video Bandwidth (50% Modulation) Luminance: 25Hz to 5.5MHz +0.5/-4.0dB Chrominace: 25 to 2.0MHz +0.5/-3.0dB S/N Ratio Luminance (Component IN/OUT): > 48dB Chrominance: AM; > 48dB (1.0MHz, LPF) PM; > 48dB (1.0MHz, LPF) K-factor (2T-pulse): < 2% Y/C Delay: < 20ns Dirrential Gain: < 3% Dirrential phase: < 3 ° Composite Video Input:BNC 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms, unbalanced sync negative Component Input 1: 12-pin female Sony Connector Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms sync negative R-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms B-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms Component Input 2: BNC x3 Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms sync negative R-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms B-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms S-Video Input: Mini Din Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms C: 0.3p-p(burst), 75 ohms Reference Input: BNC 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms, unbalanced sync negative Video Output 1: BNC 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms, unbalanced sync negative Video Output 2: BNC 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms, unbalanced sync negative Video Output 3 (Super): BNC 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms, unbalanced sync negative, with or without character insertion Component Output 1: 12-pin female Sony Connector Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms sync negative R-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms B-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms Component Output 2: BNC x3 Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 sync negative R-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms B-Y: 0.7Vp-p, 75 ohms S-Video Output: Mini Din Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms C: 0.3p-p(burst), 75 ohms U-matic DUB OUT (with optional BKW-2030) Y: 1.0Vp-p, 75 ohms C: 0.3p-p(burst), 75 ohms Audio Frequency Response: 50Hz to 15kHz +1.5/-3.0dB S/N Ratio: > 68dB Distortion (at 1kHz) at operational level (+4dBu): < 1.0% Wow and flutter (DIN 45507): < 0.1%rms Audio Line Output CH-1/2: XLR, 3-pin male. +4dBu, 600 ohm balanced Audio Monitor Output: Phono +4dBu Headphones: Stereo Jack Time Code Output: BNC 1.2Vp-p, 75 ohms.
