The AJ-HD3700B meets all high quality HD and SD production requirements in one VTR where quality is assured by full bandwidth (1920x1080) and 4:2:2 digital 10-bit component video in HD plus standard definition non-compressed 525i (NTSC) and 625i (PAL). Metadata recording and playback without sacrificing audio channels and conversion between formats is as simple as an optional plug-in card set. With a newly designed, easy-to-use front panel operation, full editing capability and low power consumption, the AJ-HD3700B is designed for integration into today's modern post and production facilities. The AJ-HD3700B provides the flexibility of having a single machine function in HD and SD plus the popular 1080/24p and 1080/24PsF.

The AJ-HD3700B features new time code and format conversion functionality that includes conversion from 24 frames to 30 frames progressive time code; the ability to display the original 25 frame time code output when playing back footage in 24 frame mode; and new output filters that significantly enhances the user's ability to control down converted output quality for such applications as DVD mastering and standard definition masters for TV distribution. With its multiple HD format capability, the AJ-HD3700B is particularly suited for mastering in mobile trucks and OB vans. Now it's possible to have both 1080i and 720p recording on board without having different VTR's for each format. And of course, down-conversion to standard definition can take place right in the AJ-HD3700B.

Designed with HD Cinema in mind, the AJ-HD3700B with the format converter card built-in combines all the functionality of many VTR's into a single system. As part of the telecine system, this powerful VTR provides superior picture quality with full resolution recording and playback, and the multiple frame rates mean mastering in one format and outputting in another. Frame rate conversion, audio and time code conversions are easily handled inside the machine and are always in time regardless of the format conversion. A colorimetry conversion function corrects color gamut differences resulting from HD/SD conversion. Eight discrete channels of audio with Dolby-E capability are ideal for surround sound, stereo, and SAP programming.

Teamed with DVCPROHD, the AJ-HD3700B is the ultimate High Definition mastering VTR. From the original recorded resolution through multiple generations, the AJ-HD3700B is the ideal editing environment where the highest picture quality must be maintained throughout the editing process. The superb quality of the newest un-compressed NLE systems is assured by mastering on the AJ-HD3700B.

With multiple frame rates, multiple formats, and multiple standards plus 8-channel of audio, built-in metadata capability, analog audio I/O, and built-in format conversion, it's no wonder the AJ-HD3700B has been chosen by so many production/post-production facilities. The AJ-HD3700B is a true Mastering VTR designed from the ground up to support Standard Definition video, HD Cinema mastering and support for digital projection and DVD distribution.
