D-3

Overview

Superior D-3 composite digital video performance for professionals

Fujifilm D3001 videocassettes reflect the Fujifilm commitment to provide broadcast professionals with state-of-the-art video tape products. Thanks to their compact size, these videocassettes allow everything from location shooting to studio editing to handled with single tape format. And despite their compact size, they offer long recording and playback times, with high output and low noise for superior image quality.

Specially Formulated EX Fine Metallix Magnetic Particles

Hysteresis Curves

The development of Fujifilm EX Fine Metallix metal magnetic particles introduced a new level of high-density recording capability to the world of 1/2-inch digital video tape. Together with our ultra-smooth tape base, they ensure increased high-frequency output and low noise.

An Ultra-Low Error Rate for Maximum Performance

Rigorous quality control measures and a high-quality binder keep the error rate exceptionally low. In addition, a backcoating developed specifically for D-3 tape ensures that the rate stays low even after repeated recording and playback. Random errors caused by micro-dropouts during digital recording are further suppressed by superior surface-finishing technology that provides improved tape-to-head contact.

Extended Still & High-Speed Playback

Extended still capability is offered to meet the demands of editing, and the long pauses and high-speed searches that it entails. Thanks to the superior quality of our EX Fine Metallix magnetic particle and binder formulations, decreases RF output are minimal even after repeated search and pause operations.

Convenient Recording Lock Plugs

Fujifilm D3001 videocassettes are equipped with two recording lock plugs to prevent accidental erasure of recorded signals. The plugs can be used together or singly to prevent erasure of all recorded signals, or of video or control signals only.
