Sony is pleased to announce the introduction of the new NIPROS/1 optical fiber studio system. With this exciting new addition, Sony continues to expand its family of professional video production tools to meet the ever increasing demand for affordable high definition (HD) production solutions. The new NIPROS/1 studio system is designed with small handy-type camcorders in mind. The system allows the adaptation of Sony HD handycam-type camcorders for use in studio operations and multi-camera field productions (AC or 12VDC operation). Now, together with the new PMW-EX3, full 1920x1080 HD productions are within the reach of smaller budgets, allowing more facilities to move up to high definition.

The NIPROS PS-270 Camera Optical Adapter supplies the following interfaces to the camcorder:
HD/SD SDI input from camera
RET video output to camera
Genlock output to camera
8-pin REMOTE for camera remote control
LANC jack
