NXCAM The newest Sony camera format, NXCAM, records to Memory Stick Pro Duo flash memory cards or SDHC flash memory cards, or the 128GB HXR- FMU128 flash memory unit. The first model – the HXR-NX5E – was launched at the start of the year.
HDV The HDV format is Sony’s entry-level tape-based format. Newer HDV cameras, including the HVR-Z5E and the HVR-Z7E, are hybrid models with the ability to record to both HDV tape and Compact Flash memory cards.
XDCAM EX XDCAMEX cameras record onto high quality, long-lasting SxS Pro cards or more affordable SxS-1 cards. The range consists of the popular PMW-EX1R, semi-shoulder mount PMW-EX3 and fully shoulder-mount PMW-350 models.

XDCAM HD422 Rather than recording to memory card, XDCAMHD422 models store file-based rushes on robust, inexpensive Professional Discs. The range includes the PDW-700 and PDW-F800, which both record high-quality 4:2:2 HD images.
HDCAM The long-standing HD tape format HDCAM has been the format of choice for dramas and high- end docs for years. The flagship HDCAM model, the F900R, has captured the images for some of the best looking TV of the last few years.
HDCAM SR HDCAM SR is the top-end mastering format used by Sony’s SRW-9000 and SRW- 9000PL cameras. It provides the ultimate picture quality for a tape-based recording system, with ultra-low noise.
