Information about Sony Dcr Vx1000
The Sony VX1000 was a Digital video camera that was produced by Sony Electronics in the mid-1990s. It was the first prosumer camera that enabled the user to transfer video information via IEEE 1394 firewire to a Windows or Macintosh computer. It was also the first camcorder in which both the MiniDV format and 3CCD color processing technology were used.
This camera is considered by many to have set the standard for the entire prosumer video camera line by offering resolution and video clarity that was unrivaled at the time. Videos recorded in DV can have up to two times the horizontal resolution of VHS and three times the component color sampling. This results in sharper, brighter colors and the time base correction will eliminate the "jitters" encountered in some tapes. Adaptive Frame Interpolation interpolates both fields into one frame and smooths out jagged, stair-step images. 4-capsule microphone provides crystal clear stereo separation and superior digital wind noise reduction. Each CCD of 3-CCD imaging system has 410, 000 pixels for brilliant digital picture quality. The Dichroic Prism divides incoming light into red, green, and blue components for greater clarity.
The Sony DCR-VX1000 is used in skateboard filming highly to this day. Sony vx1000's over vx2000's anyday!

Trivia
