Description

The PMW-350 is truly an innovation in compact shoulder camcorder development. It offers a supremely ergonomic lightweight, low profile chassis coupled with newly designed state-of-the-art 2/3-inch Exmor full HD CMOS sensors for superior picture performance and the proven XDCAM EX solid state workflow for maximum flexibility in whatever style of production is chosen.

The PMW-350 extends the multiple award-winning XDCAM EX Solid State Recording product family with a new shoulder mount design and cutting edge new three 2/3 inch-type Exmor full-HD CMOS sensors. The PMW-350K also comes equipped with a 16x zoom HD lens (also available without lens as the PMW-350L) and offers all the advanced creative recording features of the PMW-EX1R compact camcorder, plus enhancements such as a Scene File System and 4 channel audio.

The 350’s chassis is based on the proven XDCAM HD422 chassis, but weighs just 3.2kg and is one of the lightest shoulder camcorders in its class. Exceptionally low power consumption makes it environmentally friendly, using approximately 60% less than a comparable HD shoulder camcorder.

The PMW-350 supports multiple frame rate recording such as 59.94i, 50i, and native 23.98P and 25P as well as being 1080i/720P switchable. There is also a choice of a 35Mb/s High Quality mode, 25Mb/s HDV 1080i compatible mode and optional 25Mb/s Standard Definition DVCAM recording*. Twin memory card slots support up to 280 minutes HD recording time using two 32GB SxS memory cards.

The adoption of three 2/3-inch imagers and standard 2/3-inch bayonet lens interface means the PMW-350K is compatible with a wide variety of broadcast standard optional lenses, as well as being supplied with a 16x (optical) zoom HD lens. The PMW-350K provides a uniquely flexible control system designed to appeal to both broadcasters and videographers.

The PMW-350 is designed to be environmentally friendly thanks to its low power consumption of just 15W.* There’s no need for a fan motor to ventilate the inside of the body and this, alongside the energy efficient Exmor sensors, means 60% less power is used than in comparable conventional HD camcorders from Sony such as the HDW-700 full-HD shoulder camcorder with a 2/3-inch image sensor. In addition, the PMW-350 is produced at Sony EMCS Corporation KosaiTec, which has received ISO14001 Environmental Management system certification.
