Manufacturer: Sony
Manufacturer Part No: BCT12HD/2
Since 1997, Sony BCT-HD Series HDCAM tape has been the workhorse of HD production. Metal Particles, some 50% smaller than the ones used in Digital Betacam tape, capture wavelengths as small as 0.49µm, one 1/200 the thickness of a human hair. Even at these microscopic wavelengths, carrier-to-noise ratio is greater than 45 dB for robust HD recording. The Sony BCT-12HD Small Shell HDCAM Videocassette provides 12 minutes of recording time in 60i frame rate mode.

Sony HDCAM tape incorporates several key advancements:
  • Alumina-Silica layer protects the Metal Particles from oxidation for outstanding archival performance.
  • Strong binder system withstands repeated plays and long durations in pause and still modes.
  • Superb calendaring renders surface extremely smooth, an important physical attribute for high carrier-to-noise ratio.
  • Special lubricant protects the tape surface and maintains optimum tape-to-head contact.
  • ABS plastics in cassette shell protect the tape from contamination if dropped.
  • Distinctive orange anti-static lid blocks dust, which can cause read/write errors.
