Review Camcorder SONY PD 177

FEATURE SONY PD 177

Sony's Exclusive High-performance G Lens
This sophisticated Sony's G Lens lens incorporates Sony's unique optical technology and unparalleled quality control. Moreover, it's been optimised to perfectly complement the camcorder's advanced image sensor and image-processing technology, thus expanding your shooting possibilities.
Major 'G' Lens Features on the DSR-PD177P
The camcorder's 29.5mm wide-angle, 20x optical zoom 'G' Lens offers a field of view that's ideal for many shooting situations, ranging from broad landscape shots to close-up shots where it is difficult to obtain sufficient distance from the subject.
Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements reduce the chromatic aberrations caused by differences in light refraction to minimise colour fringing. The advanced 10-group, 15-element lens structure also includes three compound aspheric lenses for images that are crisp and clear, even when shooting at a high zooming ratio.
Advanced optical lens technology enables Sony's Exmor Sensor system realise sharper images with higher resolution and less noise, even when shooting in very low light.
The six-blade iris diaphragm is almost circular, which allows operators to incorporate creative background blur into their shots for beautiful visual effects.

Menurut saya,

Kekurangan SONY PD 177

-            Pd 177 masih rentan terhadap ISO besar (ISO >400) karena penggunaan ISO di atas 400 terlihat grain.

-            Penggunaan memory stick hanya digunakan untuk media foto bukan untuk media perekam (video).

-            Lensa tidak bisa dig anti, jadi sudah permanen dengan body ini mengakibatkan user tidak bisa menganti lensa ataupun membersihkan.

Kelebihan SONY PD 177

-            Body belum solid yang menguntungkan user  karena mobilitas tinggi (mudah dibawa karena tidak berat).

-            Dia mempunyai 20 kali optical zoom, yang menguntungkan user tidak seberapa membutuhkan zoom eksternal.

-            Bisa manual focus.

-            White balance bisa di set secara manual.

-            Dia memakai memakai format DVCAM yang merupakan standart internasional professional camcorder.

-            Menggunakan teknologi EXMOR sensor system 1, yang berguna pada cahaya gelap (low light) agar memaksimalkan hasil pada camcorder

-            Menggunakan lensa sony seri G LENS.

-            Hybrid recording dengan tambahan optional HVR-MRC1K.

-            Menggunakan layar wide screen 3,2” tipe XtraFine™ denga resolusi maksimum mencapai 921.000 pixel.
