  • Time Code Preset

    To satisfy the needs of professional users, the DSR-250P offers various time code settings, such as:

    • Time code preset
    • User bit preset
    • Preset / Regen
    • Rec run / Free run
    • Real time assign on user bit

  • DVCAM and DV recording

    The DSR-250P allows you to record and playback in both DVCAM and DV (SP only) formats. For professional editing, an audio lock synchronises audio and video in DVCAM mode.

  • Compatible with standard and mini cassettes

    The DSR-250P accommodates both standard and mini-size cassette tapes, which allows you flexibility not only in cassette size but also in format (DVCAM or DV).

  • New 3-CCD camera system

    Three 1/3-inch CCDs with 450,000 pixels (effective 400,000 pixels) each contribute to the high sensitivity, good signal-to-noise ratio, and refuced smear of the DSR-250P.

  • Optical type Super SteadyShot™

    Sensors in the Super SteadyShot™ system detect both horizontal and vertical movement of the camera while an active prism, located in front of the lens, optically compensates for any unsteadiness.

  • 1.5-inch black-and-white viewfinder (DXF-801CE)

    The DSR-250P comes with the same 1.5-inch black-and-white CRT viewfinder (DXR-801CE) that was originally designed for Sony high-end cameras. This lightweight viewfinder, with its high resolution, lets you focus manually to optimise picture clarity.

  • i.LINK interface for digital editing

    The built-in i.LINK interface allows you to attach a VCR and then use the camera as an editor in playback mode to an accuracy of five frames. You can also use the i.LINK interface to record directly to the VCR.

  • Added functionality with Memory Stick™

    Use your DSR-250P to take still photos with a Sony Memory Stick™, which can store up to 988 images. With Memory Mix, you can also combine still images stored on the Memory Stick™ with video images.

  • Swing-out LCD monitor

    The DSR-250 has a high-resolution, swing-out colour monitor that can be used during both recording and playback. It’s also easier to use the on-screen menu system with the large-sized LCD screen.

  • Manual functions

    Although the DSR-250 gives you the convenience and accuracy of automatic operation, it also allows you to make the following manual adjustments – so that your creativity can shine through:

    • zoom
    • focus
    • iris
    • white balance digital effects
    • guide frame
    • and many others
