The DFS-700A is an amazingly powerful integrated switcher
with digital multi effects — perfectly suited for newsrooms,
postproduction, field editing, small studios and outside

broadcasting systems. It’s the single, simple solution for
today’s demanding digital requirements.

Perfect for any application

The powerful effects of the DFS-700A are easy to integrate into a
high-end DVS switcher system. DFS-700A snapshots can be

controlled from the DVS-2000C and DVS-7000 Series switchers. 

*Only user program DME-LINK is supported  *An Rx/Tx cross cable is required

System

The DFS-700A cross-point buttons offer broadcast-grade
“feel” for extra durability in the most extreme applications.

For live operation, the DFS-700A also offers Preview and
Tally outputs.

Live operation

The DFS-700A also provides comprehensive interface with
Sony editing controllers. For example, you can use the 
DFS-700A with Sony BVE-2000/P and PVE-500/P editors via

the serial interface. As a post-production tool, the DFS-700A
is an editor’s dream.

Editing interface

You can integrate the DFS-700A into an existing switcher
system, as a powerful digital effects enhancement. But special
effects are only part of the story. The integrated switcher

functions of the DFS-700A include chroma keyer, Y/U/V
color correction, down stream keyer, fade-to-black, and frame
memory.

Switcher function

If you’ve ever been held back by the “rendering” and
“processing time” of nonlinear editing systems, you’ll come to
appreciate the performance of the DFS-700A. This is a 
real-time system, capable of delivering true 3D, page turns and
effects in an instant. So there’s no drumming your fingers, no

looking at your watch, no running for coffee. Operation is also
very easy. The addition of optional boards and software gives
you over 800 pre-programmed special effects that you can
recall with the numeric keypad. Power-packed yet extremely
user-friendly, that’s what the DFS-700A is all about.

Fast response for more productivity

From simple switching to complex effects, the ergonomic
control panel makes everything easy. The layout is
straightforward and streamlined for maximum efficiency. 

As a result, the DFS-700A is a perfect tool for EFP and
remote live broadcasting, where split-second timing and
instant response are absolute necessities.
