The progressive scan CCD sensor at the heart of the F900R allows image capture at a variety of frame rates and ensures that their quality is always at the highest level. The HDW-F900R boasts a more compact camera body (20% shorter and weighing 2.6kg less than the F900) making it ideal for hand-held work. The new model has also incorporated a number of image enhancement features including Soft Focus for cinematographers looking to achieve a more cinematic feel; Adaptive Detail Control to enhance detail in highlight areas and; Skin Tone Detail which allows cinematographers to enhance or soften the details of an object (or talent) based on specific colour tonality. On-set monitoring has been made simple as two HD-SDI outputs have been included as a standard feature on the F900R.
