Sony is pleased to announce an upgrade program to convert the HVR-Z5U, HVR-Z7U and HVR-S270U
models to world compatible (PAL/NTSC) models. The standard “U” models sold in the United States
offer "24p" (native 23.976p or pulldown), "30p" (29.97p), and "60i" (59.94i) in HD, and 480i DV or DVCAM
only in SD.

After the upgrade, the camera will retain its original specifications, and provide 576i PAL in SD and 25p
and 50i in HD, all selectable via the camera’s menu.

The cost of the upgrade is $300.00 including parts, labor and return freight from Sony to the end user.
In agreement with Sony international subsidiaries, this upgrade is only offered to end-users who have
purchased one of the three models mentioned above from a U.S. authorized authorized reseller.
After purchasing a new camera, end users desiring to upgrade their camera to WORLD CAM compatibility
must contact one of the Sony Professional Service facilities  to schedule the upgrade.

The end user will be required to send the camera with proof of purchase from a U.S. authorized reseller
(photocopies of invoices are acceptable).
