Widescreen (squeeze) recording or 4:3. Sony has brought a "24" Frame Progressive Imaging* option to Standard Definition Digital Betacam with the DVW970WS 3-CCD 2/3" 16:9/4:3 Progressive (PsF) or Interlaced Digital Betacam Camcorder. The DVW970WS uses a 2" B&W BVF-V20W Viewfinder and VCT14 Tripod Plate (the lens is sold separately). It has a Slow Shutter Feature, Progressive Mode (recorded as PsF), and, like the XDCAM Camcorders, uses an optional CBK-FC01/1 pull down board (*24 Frame Progressive Imaging is actually 23.98PsF frame rate imaging with pulldown). The DVW970WS model replaces the DVW-790WS model, which has been discontinued. The PAL version of this unit is the DVW-970P.
