Now with Version 2.0 Utility Software


Support for high bit rate MPEG-2 TS Recording
MPEG-2 TS at 50Mbps allows you to record beyond HDV (25Mbps) quality video and alternatively at 8Mbps you can record around 27 hours of HD video on a 120GB HDD. Enable uncompressed HD-SDI recording and playback when combined with the new VC-50HD Video Field Converter.



Newly added Loop Recording and Pre-Record Functions
Loop Recording mode captures to a file over a selected period of time and then keeps deleting the oldest file based on storage capacity. The Pre-Record mode enables a 3 second buffer that is added on to the front of a recording when the REC button is pressed.

Intuitive Editing Utility
The F-1 dedicated Utility Software has a newly added “Editor Mode” which can immediately edit any recorded data. In addition to still images, multiformat video can be edited on the same timeline along with any necessary up/ down conversion.

Time Code and Marker Functions
Version 2.0 of the F-1 can now record time code with video regardless of whether the camera can embed timecode or not. Of course, Time code can also be re-generated within an HDV/DV stream. The Marker function stamps the video file with time code and/or recording time when the REC button is pressed during recording. This enables the ability to quickly locate scenes during editing.

New Editing Feature added to Version 2.0 of F-1 Utility Software
The F-1 dedicated Utility Software has now been upgraded to Version 2.0 adding an “Editor Mode”. This enables easy and efficient editing of any data recorded by the F-1.

Quick-cut Editing
Easy and intuitive editing of any recorded video at any rate, including linear PCM audio editing of channels 3 and 4.


Selectable Output Formats
Edited video files can be up/down
converted. This includes HDV to DV and DV to HDV.



Mixed Format Editing
Video material can be converted to other formats and aspect ratios such as HDV⇔SD and 16:9⇔4:3.



Support for still images
Automatically re-size a photo or still image to the designated output format. Also Change the position and aspect ratio of a still image.


Support for Win/Mac Non-linear Video Editors    
Using data directly off the F-1 is much faster than real-time capture from tape. All the popular editing software systems support HDV, DV and MPEG-2 TS formats. The F-1 and the removable HDD or SSD media can be directly connected with a computer via bus-powered USB 2.0.
