Concern for the hearing impaired initially led Congress to mandate closed captions. But captions have also become valuable to English language learners, barkeepers and restaurateurs. Now Sony XDCAM® HD studio decks make closed captioning infrastructure a little bit easier.
Instead of buying separate transcoders to convert the old standard def-compatible CEA-608 (Line 21) captions to high def-compatible CEA-708 (VANC), you can have Sony XDCAM HD studio decks do this automatically. The PDW-HD1500 and F1600 decks can perform valuable closed caption conversions when equipped with an extra-cost firmware upgrade called the PDBZ-UPG02. The supported functions are as follows:
The PDZ-BZUPG02 firmware upgrade carries a US list price of $2,950. To arrange a purchase, please contact your Authorized Sony Reseller. To locate an Authorized Sony Reseller, click here.
