Sony DCR-SR45 Handycam® User manual

Hybrid Technology – Record video to Hard Disk Drive or Memory Stick!
You now have the choice of recording high quality video to the 30GB HDD or Memory Stick. Over 20hrs of footage can
be stored in the camera’s 30GB Hard Disk Drive, while 5h 25min can be recorded direct to an optional 8GB Memory
Stick. Movies recorded onto Hard Disk Drive can even be copied to Memory stick for easy file transfer!
40x Optical Zoom Lens
The DCRSR45 features a high-magnification 40x optical zoom lens. Now you can shoot faraway subjects such as
buildings and bridges that are difficult to capture with conventional lenses. Using Optical zoom allows you to get much
closer to your shooting subject, without sacrificing overall image quality.
Quick On
Pressing the “Quick On” button enables the Handycams “Stand By” mode – perfect for conserving battery power during
shooting down time. Simply pressing “Quick on” again will wake the camera up, and let you start shooting in only 1 sec!
Film Roll Index and Face Index
By enabling Film Roll Index it is possible to preview the beginning of scenes and create scene indexes set at specified
display intervals (3, 6, or 12 seconds and 1 or 5 minutes) – perfect for seeing what was recorded in a long take. This
Handycam also features Face Index, allowing the user to play scenes simply by pressing the human faces detected
during shooting.
Easy YouTube Upload
The supplied Picture Motion Browser software makes uploading your footage to YouTube (or your favourite online
service) easy! PMB automatically converts footage to a smaller file size and assists you in uploading clips to the web.
2.7” Wide Touch Screen LCD
The Touch Screen interface makes using this Handycam a simple and enjoyable experience. Powerful features such as
Spot Focus and Spot Metering allow you to adjust the focal and exposure points of your scene at the touch of a fingertip.
