Using blue-laser technology, the new dual-layer disc can attain high density recording of more than 10 times the capacity of a consumer DVD (4.7GB) using red-laser technology. The 12cm (5 inch) rewritable optical disc has a track pitch of 0.32 µm. It is encased in a protective cartridge that is designed to be resistant to dust, shock and X-rays.

The XDCAM system requires precise, high-density recording so the discs utilize a unique hard coating to minimize dust adhesion and surface scratches ensuring enhanced durability and reliable playback. Additionally, the discs are packaged in a durable and dust-resistant cartridge, are resistant to heat and humidity and are resistant to X-rays, which means that they are ideal for use in extreme field recording environments. These features enable a long media life and long-term media storage, so with proper handling and appropriate environment the discs have a potential archival storage life of over 50 years.

The Fujifilm Dual-Layer Professional Disc media will be available in Fall 2008. To learn more about the full line of Fujifilm professional recording and storage solutions, go to www.fujifilmusa.com/proav.
