The PZW-4000 4K XAVC recorder supports XAVC-L422 QFHD 200 (200 Mbps for QFHD at 60fps) recording/playback as well as XAVC-I QFHD 300 (Intra XAVC for QFHD at 600 Mbps), which is widely adopted in today’s 4K/UHD productions.

Long GOP compression technology at 200 Mbps reduces video bit rates by 1/3 at 59.94p and 2/5 at 50p compared with the XAVC Intra codec while maintaining superb 4K image quality.

This combination of picture quality and lower data rate significantly improves workflow efficiency, especially with projects involving longer recording/playback time and faster transferring/copying of files.

The internal 2TB SSD (Solid State Drive upgradable to 8TB) allows approximately 20 hours of recording/playback in XAVC-L422 QFHD 200 Mbps, with faster than real-time transfer through the GbE network interface.
