For added versatility, the AJ-SD93 can play back DV and DVCAM tapes. Standard DV tapes can be played without an adapter,
while Mini-DV tapes can be played using the AJ-CS455P adapter.*
*Even with an adapter, DVCPRO VTRs cannot play Mini-DV cassette tapes recorded in LP mode, nor 80- or 120-minute Mini-DV cassette tapes.

Equipped with IEEE-1394 Terminal
The AJ-SD93's 6-pin IEEE-1394 DVCPRO/DV terminal makes it easy to transfer data to and from DV equipment or Mac or PCbased
non-linear editing systems. Supporting a 50-Mbps bit rate and allowing transfer of DVCPRO50 data as well as DVCPRO and
DV(DVCAM) data, the AJ-SD93 is perfect for building a low-cost editing system that delivers 4:2:2 image quality.
*Recording DV signal via IEEE 1394 terminal is impossible. Also requires an IEEE 1394-compatible Mac or PC and software.
DVCPRO50 data can be used only by systems compatible with 50-Mbps DV data.

New Joystick Design
The joystick has been redesigned to offer easy, comfortable Slow and Shuttle Search operation. For added convenience, the stick
can also be used to select menu items and set the time code.

PF (Programmable Function) Buttons
You can assign functions from the setup menu to each of the three PF buttons provided. This customizing feature gives you
quick, direct access to the operational functions you use most.
