Sony PXW-X160 Professional Handheld Camcorder What about the camera?

The Sony PXW-X160's XAVC Intra (intra-frame) compression means that each frame is encoded independently of other frames - thus providing a lossless and higher quality picture. When using the Long GOP codec, only certain frames are encoded individually. This allows the codec to compress the video to a smaller bitrate than Intra technology. The main benefit is faster ingest and editing. In addition, XAVC Long GOP content requires less storage space than XAVC Intra content, saving budget on recording media.

CMOS imager, in addition to XAVC Intra/long GOP format, PXW-X160 (word of mouth, purchase) can also use MPEG2, AVCHD and DVCAM formats for video recording .
