Chapter 1 Overview
The SRW-9000 is an HDCAM SR format
integrated camcorder.
It combines the high quality and high
performance of HDCAM SR recording with the
superior mobility of a compact camcorder. Its
features and performance make it ideal for
shooting in situations ranging from movie and
commercial production to studio programming,
television dramas, and documentaries.
Superior Picture Quality and High
Performance
High-performance digital recording in HDCAM
SR format
The SRW-9000 (called “this unit” below),
records and plays back component video signals
that comply with the MPEG-4 Studio Profile, an
international video signal compression standard.
It supports the standard 440 Mbps recording
format of the SRW series (HDCAM SR VTRs),
and also a double-speed 880 Mbps recording
format.1) It records up to 12 channels of
uncompressed audio signals (24 bits, sampling
frequency 48 kHz).
1) Double-speed recording
Double-speed recording is realized by doubling the
standard drum rotation and tape transport speeds,
allowing twice as much data to be recorded per unit of
time.
This enables recording of high-quality formats such as
1080/50P and 59.94P, and recording in RGB 4:4:4 HQ
mode.
3CCD imaging system with 2/3-inch progressive
CCDs and 14-bit A/D converter
The unit delivers high image quality through a
3CCD imaging system with 2/3-inch progressive
CCDs and a 14-bit A/D converter. The maximum
dynamic range is 800%.
Multi frame rate support
The unit supports a variety of 1080 formats for
the production of high-end content such as
movies, commercials, and broadcast
programming.
• 1080 × 1920 (progressive) formats:
23.98PsF/24PsF/25PsF/29.97PsF/50P/59.94P
• 1080 × 1920 (interlaced) formats: 50i/59.94i
RGB 4:4:4 shooting and recording
Because of its high compatibility with computer
graphics and digital compositing systems, the
RGB 4:4:4 format opens up a wide range of
creative possibilities for applications such as
movie-making and commercial production. The
unit offers the same S-LOG gamma as with the
F35/F23 Digital Cinematography Camera, thus
ensuring wide dynamic range shooting.
User Gamma function
This unit inherits the User Gamma function of the
HDW-F900R HD Camcorder. This allows you to
load gamma curves created with the
CvpFileEditor.
The User Gamma function allows you to capture
a look that expresses your creative intentions.
Design and Shape
Compact body and low power consumption
This unit is about two times lighter than previous
HDCAM SR recording systems, and consumes
only about half as much power. Its compact size
and light weight enable capture by small camera
crews. Like previous HDCAM camcorders, it can
be powered by Sony BP-GL95 lithium ion battery
packs.
High compatibility with film camera accessories
Using the supplied riser plate, you can connect
industry standard ARRIFLEX movie camera
accessories such as bridge plates, matte boxes,
and follow focus units.
Instead of the riser plate, you can also attach the
supplied V-shoe plate. This allows you to use the
optional VCT-14 Tripod Attachment to mount
the unit on a tripod.
Chapter1Overview
Features
Features
12
Chapter 1 Overview
Assignable buttons/switch
The unit is equipped with 10 assignable buttons/
switch on the side panel. For easier operation
during shooting, you can assign frequently used
functions to these switches. You can also assign
basic VTR control functions such as STOP,
PLAY, and REW, which allows you to control
tape transport without using the control panel.
Rich Selection of Functions
Two operation modes: Cine and Custom
This unit offers two operation modes: Cine mode,
for film-like shooting, with adjustments normally
being made in post production, and Custom
mode, for users who wish to obtain a specific look
by adjusting parameters on the set.
Monitor output functions
The unit provides a wide range of monitor output
functions, including mixing of characters and
markers into monitor output, mixing of camera
and playback video, and separate gammas for
monitor and main line.
Down converter
A down converter is provided as a standard
feature, allowing you to monitor camera and VTR
playback video as SD composite on an SD
monitor.
1.5G Dual link output
Installation of the optional HKSR-9001 in this
unit enables output of 1.5G Dual Link signals
(RGB 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 1080/50P).
3G HDSDI output
Installation of the HKSR-9001 enables output of
3G Single Link signals, equivalent to 1.5G Dual
Link signals, over a single BNC cable.
SR Motion™ 1)
When the optional HKSR-9002 Picture Cache
Board is installed, SR Motion is available on this
unit. SR Motion allows you to obtain effects
similar to overcranking and undercranking on
film cameras by using HKSR-9002’s built-in
memory while maintaining the high picture
quality of HDCAM-SR (1920 × 1080) format.
SR Motion is available in Select FPS mode.
Select FPS enables variable-speed motion effects
by changing the frame frequency during
recording (Ramp function).
1) SR Motion is a trademark of Sony Corporation.
Timer Rec
When the optional HKSR-9002 Picture Cache
Board is installed, a Timer Rec function is
available on this unit. This allows you to utilize
the memory in the option board to shoot images at
a specified interval. This enables time-lapse
recording and recording over long periods.
Cache Rec
When the optional HKSR-9002 Picture Cache
Board is installed, a Cache Rec function is
available on this unit. This function captures
about 200 frames of the video and audio that the
camera is currently shooting (or about 100 frames
in HQ mode) to the memory. Thus, when you
press the recording start button (if the unit is in
standby on mode and SR Motion is not being
used), the recording starts with the data stored
about 200 frames (or about 100 frames in HQ
mode) before.
Shutter control
When adjusting the electronic shutter, you can
display shutter settings as shutter angles (in
degrees) or shutter speeds (in seconds).
Image inversion function
The image inversion function allows you to
cancel out the image inversion that occurs when a
cine-lens converter is used.
Monitoring and recording AUX inputs
Installing the optional HKSR-9001 allows
monitoring and recording the 4:2:2 video signals
input to the AUX IN connector. You can select
the monitoring or recording target between the
camera picture and the AUX inputs by menu
setting.
Removable control panel
The control panel is independent of the unit,
allowing it to be installed in the most convenient
location in your operating environment. It can be
held in the hand and operated like a remote
controller.
AP-1 Assistant Panel (optional)
The optional AP-1 Assistant Panel provides the
same functions as the control panel on the right
side of the unit. It enables convenient control of
basic camera operations such as shutter control
(indication in degrees possible), gain and color
temperature settings (selection of Tungsten and
Daylight possible), timecode and tape remaining
checks, control of character display, and

assignment of functions to the assignable buttons/
switch.
Per-channel audio level adjustments
You can check peaks and adjust audio playback
and recording levels independently on all 12
audio channels.
The figure below shows a camera system
configured around this unit. In this manual,
figures and explanations assume that you are

Chapter 3 Basic Adjustments and Settings
This unit supports two operation modes: Cine
Mode and Custom mode. Cine modes allow you
to use the unit like a film camera, on the
assumption that the video will undergo post-
production processing to achieve a specific look.
Custom mode allows you to access all settings on
site, so that you can achieve the look you want as
you shoot.
You can control the camera either from the
Camera menu or a remote control unit, but the
items you can set and the values they can take
depend on whether you are shooting in Cine
Mode or Custom mode.
Cine mode (default mode)
This mode is intended that the most commonly
used operations are available in the subdisplay
and the USER menus of the Camera menu.
• The menu configuration is simple, with most
items relating to the basic “look” of the video
fixed as factory defaults.
• The only active auto setup item is auto black
balance (ABB).
• The white balance level is fixed at the preset
value (3200K), and auto white balance (AWB)
and WHITE R/G/B settings are not operative.
• When you are controlling the unit from a remote
control unit connected to the REMOTE
connector, items with numeric settings that are
fixed in Cine mode do not appear on the remote
control unit. Items with ON/OFF settings and
selectable items do appear, even when their
settings are fixed.
• The only file that can be read from or written to
“Memory Stick” media is the operator file in the
USER menu, and the only file data that can be
reset to factory defaults is the data in that file.
• The only operation that can be carried out with
lens files is loading a lens file by specifying its
number.
• The reference file items are fixed to the default
values set at the factory even if you have
changed the values in Custom mode.
Custom mode
This mode is intended for users who want to make
detailed menu settings, or who want to operate
from a remote control unit.
• You can save and load reference files, which
store adjustment reference values, and scene
files, which store adjustment values specific to
particular scenes.
• You can load user gamma tables.
• You can adjust and save lens files.
Note
The settings for file items adjusted in Custom mode are
maintained when the camera is switched back to Cine
mode. However, video adjustment values that are
changed temporarily and not stored in any file are
cleared upon mode switching.
For details on the items and values that can be set in
each mode, see “Camera Menu List” (page 127).
Cine mode is selected when the unit is shipped
from the factory.
To switch to Custom modes
Referring to the procedure described in “Setting
the Built-in Clock” (page 39), display the <BASE
SETTING> page of the Camera >
MAINTENANCE menu on the subdisplay,
viewfinder screen, or monitor screen and use that
page to switch to Custom mode.

Gain switch values (L/M/H) page
You can use the gain switch of the RM-B150
Remote Control Unit to switch the gain of this
unit’s video amplifier. You can also assign gain
functions to assignable buttons 1 to 3, 5 to 8, N,
and C. Before doing so, you need to set a gain
value for each position (L/M/H). You can set
these values on this page. This page also allows
you to switch the gain of this unit’s video
amplifier between the L, M, and H values.
Note
To adjust the gain, you can either select it directly or
switch between the L, M, and H values. If you set it
directly, it may differ from the L, M, and H values, in
which case the unit displays L*, M*, and H* with
asterisks to indicate that the gain value is different from
the values assigned to L, M, and H.
Immediately after you power the unit on, GAIN is
always displayed as “**”, to indicate that the gain switch
position is undetermined. At this time, the gain is most
recent gain value from the last time you used the unit.
(The unit assumes that the position is undetermined
because you may have powered the unit off with L*, M*,
and H* displayed.)
When GAIN is displayed as “**”, and you switch it with
the assignable buttons or a subdisplay operation, the unit
always selects L first.
You can make the same settings on the <GAIN
ASSIGN> page of the Camera >OPERATION
menu .(see page 137)
ISO sensitivity and dynamic range
indications
The ISO sensitivity value displayed on the Gain
setting page is defined as “the value at which the
video input becomes 20% when shooting a gray
scale chart with a 18% reflection rate”.
Note that the video output value with respect to
this input will vary depending on the selected
gamma.
Dynamic ranges are displayed as percentage
values. They show the high luminance limit for
the case where grayscale white output is 100%
(700 mV), with ITU-R709 gamma (standard
gamma) and the input level as 100%.
Latitude values are displayed with E, showing the
latitude on the high luminance side as an f-stop
value, using a gray-scale chart with an 18%
reflection rate as the key light Gradations on the
low luminance side can be expressed up to
approximately –6.5 stop at 0 dB.
Note
As the dynamic range indication shows a value for the
input video, the dynamic range of the output video is
limited by the output settings as follows:
If a gamma other than S-LOG is selected
The upper limit is clipped according to the output
video limitation specified by the gamma setting.
When you select a curve as Hyper Gamma No. 4,
which compresses 460% input to 109%, the
output video is fed within the range up to 460% of
input video even if 800% is displayed on the
subdisplay as the dynamic range as the output
video is limited to 109%.
Using CvpFileEditor V4.0 (see page 75), you can
change the dynamic range of Hyper Gamma and
create a user gamma curve having no dynamic
range limitation.
If the white clip function is in use
As the white clip function limits the level of
output video, the dynamic range specified for the
input video may not be obtained for video output.
When you select “gain compensation mode” as
the video level compensation mode for the
Select FPS function
The dynamic range value declines up to a
maximum of 1/2, depending on the FPS setting
(number of frames to shoot).
Memo
Why the ISO sensitivity is defined for 20%
input
Defining the level of gray scale of 18% reflection rate for
the ISO sensitivity on the linear curve (defining with
input signal) permits you to use the values as the absolute
reference for proper gamma conversion in
postproduction.

In addition, defining the output for 20% input with ITU-
R709 so that it becomes the reference code for Cineon
curve allows high compatibility.
On this unit, you can adjust the compensation
data for the mounted lens in Custom mode and
registered it in the built-in memory as a lens file
(max. 64 files in total: 32 files for serial lenses
and another 32 files for non-serial lenses).
You can invoke the compensation data for the
mounted lens simply by selecting the
corresponding file.
Lens file selection page
On the first line, select the number of a lens file.
(If a serial lens is mounted, the unit will recognize
the lens name and invoke the corresponding lens
file automatically. In that case, the file number is
always 33.)
The second line displays the lens file name
corresponding to the selected number.
The selected lens file is retained until a new lens
file is selected. As long as you are using the same
lens, you do not need to select it again.
Note
All the lens files are named “No Offset,” with all zero
settings at shipment. File registration and modification of
data in a lens file must be performed in Custom mode.
For details on the lens files, see Chapter 8 “Storage
and Retrieval of User Setting Data” (page 185).
You can check the operating status of the VTR
module in the subdisplay. When the unit is in
recording pause mode, you can also use this page
to switch the power supply to the VTR module
between power saving (SAVE) mode and standby
(STBY) mode.
The first line shows the operating status of the
VTR module (REC PAUSE, REC, F.FWD,
REW, PLAY, STOP, etc).
The second line shows the VTR module power
supply mode (SAVE, STBY) when it is in stop
mode (STOP), recording pause mode (REC

Chapter 3 Basic Adjustments and Settings
If the gain of the video amplifier of the unit is to
be switched using the gain switch of the RM-
B150 Remote Control Unit, the gain values for
the corresponding switch positions must be
specified in advance.
Use the <GAIN ASSIGN> page of the Camera
>USER (OPERATION) menu.
Any of –6, –3, 0, 3, 6, 9, or 12 dB can be set for
each of the L, M, and H positions, in any
sequence.
Relationship between dynamic range and gain
The dynamic range determined by the gain setting
on the unit is the same for all formats at 460% for
0 dB or lower and 800% for 6 dB or higher.
Setting the gain so that the dynamic range is
800% enables reproduction of gradation at high
luminance. In such cases, however, the S/N (noise
in dark areas) will decrease due to the inverse
relationship between the dynamic range and the
S/N. If you want to prioritize the S/N, configure
the gain setting so that the dynamic range is
460%.

Chapter 3 Basic Adjustments and Settings
When you turn this unit’s Electronic Shutter
function on, you can control the shutter by
selecting either shutter angles or shutter speeds
(seconds).
You can use the subdisplay for normal shutter
switching, and make more detailed settings on the
<SHUTTER> page of the Camera >USER
(PAINT) menu. The menu allows you to set the
shutter on a page that displays the shutter angle
(degrees), the shutter speed (seconds), and the
shutter mode.
SHUTTER
To activate the electronic shutter, set this to ON.
The [deg] field displays the currently selected
shutter angle, and the [sec] field displays the
speed (in seconds), converted according to the
current frame rate.
STEP (Step mode)
To select a step shutter value, move the cursor to
this line.
Turn the MENU SEL/ENTER dial to display
registered shutter values in the [deg] and in [sec]
fields.
CONTINUOUS (Continuous mode)
To fine-adjust the selected shutter step value or
use a value that has not been registered as a
shutter step value, move the cursor to this line.
The values in the [deg] and [sec] columns change
continuously when the MENU SEL/ENTER dial
is turned.
STEP ASSIGN
You can add and delete shutter step values in the
same way as with the <SHUTTER ASSIGN>
page (see page 132) of the Camera >USER
(OPERATION) menu.
ADD: After a Continuous mode operation to
specify a shutter value in the [deg] field, you
can use ADD to register that value as a new
shutter step. If eight shutter step values have
been already registered, “STEPS FULL”
appears, and the new value is not registered.
In that case, use DELETE to delete an
unneeded shutter step value and try again.
DELETE: Deletes the shutter step value
displayed in the [deg] field by a step
operation.
See “Shutter Settings” (page 42) for more
information about shutter step values.
FRAME RATE
When the optional HKSR-9002 is installed, select
the frame rate (number of frames to shoot), for
when Select FPS is selected as the video format.
You can select from the ranges in the following
table.
Note
When you have selected a format other than Select FPS,
the frame rate is displayed in parentheses and cannot be
changed.
COMP MODE
When the optional HKSR-9002 is installed, you
can compensate for changes in the video level
when the frame rate (number of frames to shoot)
is changed. There are two compensation modes,
which use either the shutter angle or electrical
gain.
ANGLE (angle compensation mode): When the
frame rate is changed, the video level is held
constant by automatically adjusting the
shutter angle.
Notes
• In angle compensation mode, the frame rate
cannot be changed to a low value when the angle
approaches 0°, and the frame rate cannot be
changed to a high value when the angle
approaches 360°.
