Ideal Personal-Use Compact Players
The design concept of the J series
Compact Players was for affordable,
compact office viewers to be used by
producers, journalists and production staff.
The result is three models that are ideal
for personal, desktop use. At the same
time, they have all the features required
for viewing, logging and source feeding
to servers or nonlinear editing systems.
All J series Compact Players can playback
Betacam SX™, Betacam SP™ and
Betacam™ tapes. In addition to this ability
to playback analogue Betacam formats,
the J-2 Compact Player can playback
MPEG IMX™ tapes while the J-3 model
adds both MPEG IMX and Digital
Betacam™ tape playback. All models
have a Jog/Shuttle dial, 525/625 playback,
simple remote control capability via
RS-422A and audio meters – they can
even replay L-size cassettes.
