Overview
The PMW-200/100 is a highly compact and high-
performance XDCAM1) camcorder that uses
SxS1) memory cards as recording media. The
imaging device used in the PMW-200 camcorder
is a 1/2-inch type triple-chip “Exmor”
1) CMOS
sensor, and the PMW-100 camcorder uses a
1/2.9-inch type single-chip “Exmor”
1) CMOS
sensor. Both have an effective pixel count of 1920
× 1080. Either the UDF or FAT file system can be
used with recording media.
Multiple-format support
Both Interlace at 1080/59.94i (or 1080/50i) and
Progressive at 1080/29.97P, 1080/23.98P, 720/
59.94P, 720/29.97P, and 720/23.98P (or 1080/
25P, 720/50P, and 720/25P) are supported,
providing various HD recording formats for
worldwide coverage.
NTSC/PAL SD formats are also possible,
including SD signal recording and playback in
DVCAM format, as well as down-conversion
output of HD signals into SD signals.
A new generation HD recording system
HD recording using the “MPEG-2 Long GOP”
codec and SD recording in DVCAM format
The PMW-200/100 records 1920 × 1080, 1440 ×
1080, and 1280 × 720 HD images using “MPEG-
2 Long GOP” codec compression. When
recording with UDF, settings of 50 Mbps (in
HD422 mode) or 35 Mbps (in HQ mode) are
supported. With FAT, settings of 35 Mbps (in HQ
mode) or 25 Mbps (in SP mode) are supported.
When using UDF with a 64 GB SxS memory
card, efficient compression methods allow for
recording approximately 120 minutes of HD
images at 50 Mbps (in HD422 mode), and
approximately 180 minutes of HD images at 35
Mbps (in HQ mode). Furthermore, the PMW-
200/100 supports recording and playback in
DVCAM 25 Mbps format, as well as playback in
MPEG IMX 50 Mbps format.
High-quality uncompressed audio recording
When in UDF HD422 mode, this camcorder can
record 4-channel audio in 24-bit, 48 kHz linear
PCM format. Recording of 4-channel audio in 16-
bit, 48 kHz linear PCM format for FAT HD Mode
is possible.
Support for a file-based workflow
File-based recording in MXF and MP4 formats
allows material to be handled with great
flexibility in computer work environments,
enabling easy copying, transferring, sharing, and
archiving.
Instant-access thumbnail display with “Expand”
function
Each time a recording is started and stopped, the
video and audio signals are recorded as one clip.
Furthermore, thumbnails are automatically
generated for each clip as a visual reference,
allowing the operator to cue-up to a desired scene
simply by guiding the cursor to a thumbnail. For
further convenience, the ‘Expand’ function
allows one selected clip in the Thumbnail display
to be divided into 12 equal time intervals, each
with its own thumbnail identifier. This is useful if
you wish to quickly search for a particular scene
within a lengthy clip.
Creative recording modes and settings

Preparations
The LCD monitor turns on when it is opened and
turns off when it is returned to the park position.
Adjusting the angle
It can be rotated as much as 90 degrees in the
direction facing the subject and as much as 180
degrees in the opposite direction.
When you rotate it 90 degrees toward the subject,
the image on the monitor becomes upside down,
indicating the mirror image of the subject. The
display direction of the textual information is
converted to the readable direction.
Adjusting the backlight
Press the LCD BRIGHT button (page 15) to

pictures being recorded.
If the picture on the LCD monitor is hard to view
under bright ambient light, you can use the
viewfinder to check the picture.
Do not leave the camcorder with the eyepiece of
the viewfinder facing the sun. Direct sunlight can
enter through the eyepiece, be focused in the
viewfinder, and cause fire.
Hereafter the viewfinder is referred to as “EVF”
(abbreviation of Electronic Viewfinder).
Turning the EVF on/off
With the factory setting, the EVF is turned on
when the LCD monitor is in its park position or is
rotated to face the subject.
You can change the setting so that the EVF is
always on regardless of the status in the LCD
monitor, using “EVF” (page 91) in the LCD/VF
SET menu. Change the “Power” setting from
“Auto” to “On.”
Adjusting the focus in the EVF
The eyepiece focusing (diopter compensation)
knob (page 15) (PMW-200)/(page 13) (PMW-
100) enables adjustment to match the eyesight of
the operator, who can then view the image clearly
through the eyepiece.
Adjusting the backlight
The brightness of the backlight for the EVF can
be switched between High and Low.
Set “Backlight” in “EVF” (page 91) in the LCD/
VF SET menu.
Switching between color and
monochrome modes

Select “Properties” in “Plan.Metadata” (page
101) in the OTHERS menu, then select
“Execute.”
Using the Wi-Fi connection
When connecting the unit with a computer via
Wi-Fi, the file transmission can be done accessing
the unit’s Web menu from a computer.
1Launch the browser and input http://
<camcorder’s IP address> (page 102) in
the address bar.
Example: When the IP address is
192.168.1.10, input http://192.168.1.10 in
the address bar.
2Input the user name and password, then
click OK.
User name: admin

Clearing the loaded planning metadata
To clear the planning data loaded in the
camcorder’s memory, proceed as follows:
Select “Clear” in “Plan.Metadata” (page 101) in
the OTHERS menu, then select “Execute.”
Defining a clip name in Planning
Metadata
The following two types of clip name strings can
be written in a planning metadata file.
• ASCII-format name, which is displayed on the
EVF screen
• UTF-8-format name, which is actually
registered as the clip name
You can select the type for displaying the clip
name with “Clip Name Disp” in “Plan.Metadata”
(page 101) in the OTHERS menu.
When you specify a clip name in planning
metadata, the name is displayed under the
operation status indication on the EVF screen.
Example of clip name strings
Use a text editor to modify the description for the
<Title> tag.
The shaded fields in the example are clip name
strings. “Typhoon” is described in ASCII format
(up to 44 characters).
“Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo” is described in UTF-8
format (up to 44 bytes).
Here, “sp” indicates a space, and 3 indicates a
carriage return.

Notes
• When you create a file, enter each statement as a single
line by breaking a line with a CRLF only after the last
character of the line, and do not enter spaces except
where specified with “sp.”
• A string of up to 44 bytes (or 44 characters) is valid as
a clip name. If a UTF-8-format string exceeds 44 bytes,
the string up to the 44th byte is used as the clip name.
If only a string in ASCII format is specified, the
ASCII-format name up to the 44th characters is used as
the clip name. When neither the ASCII-format name
string nor UTF-8-format name string is valid, a clip
name in the standard format is used.
Using a clip name defined in planning metadata
Load a planning metadata file that contains the
clip name into memory of the camcorder, then
select “Plan” in “Auto Naming” in “Clip” (page
100) in the OTHERS menu.
Clip names are generated by adding an
underscore (_) and a 5-digit serial number (00001
to 99999).
Example: Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_00001,
Typhoon_Strikes_Tokyo_00002, ...
Notes
• If the serial number reaches 99999, it returns to 00001
upon the next recording.
• When you load another planning metadata file, the 5-
digit serial number returns to 00001.

Defining Shot Mark names in Planning
Metadata
When you record shot mark 1 or shot mark 2, you
can apply a name to the shot mark, using a string
defined in planning metadata.
Example of shot mark name strings
Use a text editor to modify the description for the
<Meta name> tag.
The shaded fields in the example are shot mark
name strings.
Names can be either in ASCII format (up to 32
characters) or UTF-8 format (up to 16 characters).
Here, “sp” indicates a space and 3 indicates a
carriage return.
Note
If a name string contains even one non-ASCII character,
the maximum length of that string is limited to 16
characters.

thumbnail, the recording date and recording
start time are displayed. If the clip is locked or is
set with an OK mark, the lock mark is
displayed.
In FAT SD mode: The thumbnail image for each
clip is the first frame of the clip. Below each
thumbnail, the recording date and recording
start time are displayed. If the file was split into
multiple parts because its file size exceeded 2
GB, the take mark is displayed. Split files
can be viewed via the EXPAND CLIP screen
(page 72).
