Designed for use in even the roughest conditionsm the FS-5 includes a 10-second electronic shock cache to ensure that you never lose footage.  Advanced features such as time lapse (DV mode only), retro disk recording, scene marking, and clip categorization make the FS-5 Portable DTE Recorder the perfect companion for handheld shoots.  When recording is complete, your footage is ready to edit instantly - no capturing, file transfer, or conversion is required.

View Thumbnails and Video Clips

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.

Assign Custom Metadata on the Fly

With the FS-5, you can personalize and optimize workflow - while you shoot.  With your wireless handheld device or laptop, you can access the FS-5 through a browser, define metadata, and assign it to video while you are recording, eliminating the need to tag footage when the shoot is over.  During postproduction, simply transfer clips - complete with metadata - from the FS-5 to your NLE system or PX Media Server.  All of the information that you assigned during the shoot goes with the clips, saving you hours or even days of logging time.

Engineered for Portability, Durability, and Ease of Use

Only 2.75 inches wide, 5.4 inches high, and 1.25 inches deep, the FS-5 packs a wealth of functionality into a sleek and durable package that weighs only 12 ounces.  Crafted from the inside out to meet the reliability and quality standards that video professionals demand, the FS-5 is designed to deliver great results under even the most challenging shooting conditions.
