HDCAM, introduced in
1997, is an
HD version of
Digital Betacam, using an 8-bit
DCT compressed 3:1:1 recording, in
1080i-compatible downsampled resolution of 1440×1080, and adding
24p and 23.976
PsF modes to later models. The HDCAM codec uses non-square pixels and as such the recorded 1440×1080 content is upsampled to 1920×1080 on playback. The recorded video bitrate is 144 Mbit/s. Audio is also similar, with 4 channels of
AES/EBU 20-bit/48 kHz digital audio.
