With the FS-5 Portable DTE Recorder,
you’ll go from acquisition to editing with unparalleled
speed, efficiency, and reliability. By combining DTE
Technology with advanced caching, the FS-5 ensures that
you never miss an important shot or lose critical
footage.
And best of all, your footage is ready to edit
instantly. Rugged, shock resistant, and extremely power
efficient, the FS-5 features a 60GB or 100GB hard disk.
Using the Universal Disk Format (UDF) to write files,
the FS-5 saves long recordings (up to 1.5 hours) as a
single clip (instead of a series of individual clips),
making management of clips in postproduction much faster
and easier.
Go from Acquisition to Editing in One Step
Featuring a backlit color display, an easy-to-use menu
system, a hard drive, and a removable, rechargeable
battery, the Focus FS-5 is the perfect DTE companion for
your HDV or DV camcorder. Audio, video, timecode, and
control information is passed through a single FireWire
cable, allowing you to record to disk or to disk and
tape simultaneously.
Designed for use in even the roughest conditions, the
FS-5 includes a 10-second electronic shock cache to
ensure that you never lose footage. Advanced features
such as timelapse (DV mode only), retro disk recording,
scene marking, and clip categorization make the FS-5
perfect for handheld shoots. When recording is complete,
your footage is ready to edit instantly—no capturing,
file transfer, or file conversion is required.
Assign Custom Metadata on the Fly
With the FS-5, you can personalize and optimize
workflow—during shooting or playback. With your wireless
handheld device or laptop, you can access one or more
FS-5 units through a browser (new in 2.0), define
metadata, and assign it to video while you’re recording
or during playback, eliminating the need to tag footage
when the shoot is over.
View Thumbnails and Video Clips - NEW in 2.0!
With the FS-5, you can view thumbnails and video clips
on its brilliant color display. Thumbnails can also be
viewed on a web page when the FS-5 is connected to a
network. MPEG-4 proxy files can be generated and
transferred to a host computer or a video-sharing web
site, as well as distributed to portable media devices,
making collaboration easy.
Connectivity
With its FireWire/iLINK, GPI/RS-232, and USB 2.0 ports,
the FS-5 easily connects to your camera, a remote
control unit, or your wired network. For wireless
connectivity, simply plug the optional 802.11 dongle
into the USB 2.0 port and use your wireless PDA or
laptop to send custom metadata to the FS-5 while your
footage is recording or playing back.
