  • Notes

  • The CCD-V8AF-E is a Video 8 camcorder with.

    • infrared auto focus (AF)
    • Rotary 2-head helical scanning system
    • Video 8 format uses 8 mm tape for storing the video signal in analogue FM.
    • Lens combined 6 x power zoom
    • The main image sensor was a 250,000-pix CCD which required a minimum light level of 22 lux (f1.4).
    • Uses phase alternating line (PAL) colour encoding system, which complies CCIR standards, for 625-line analogue video systems.

    As well as dedicated ICs to provide analogue processing of video signals, this camcorder required a mode control central processing unit (CPU) µPD7503G-324 for the overall control of the camera, and MB88505 microcontroller to manage the tape transport mechanism and servos.

    C1M30P4 is a 1 inch monitor.

    237 transistors and diodes counted, 47 ICs and 4 quartz.
