Panasonic AG-HVX200P 3CCD P2 DVCPro HD Camcorder withCards, Batteries, and Charger

Comes with three Batteries, two chargers, remote, 2 4GB Cards, 1 8gb Card and 1 60gb Card great used condition. Panasonic is proud to introduce the AG-HVX200, a handheld DVCPRO HD P2 camera-recorder that's designed to meet emerging needs in HD production. It debuts as Panasonic's first HD video product to use P2, the cutting-edge memory recording device that has the potential to revolutionize the entire production paradigm. The AG-HVX200 records HD, either 1080i or 720p video acquired by a new optical system and high-performance digital signal processor onto a P2 card using the broadcasting DVCPRO HD codec. This system achieves a level of image quality that conventional handheld HD cameras simply cannot match, while also supporting HD/SD multi-format and multi-codec recording capabilities.

Variable frame rate recording is just one of the features that makes the AG-HVX200 unique in its class. Using technologies that make the Panasonic VariCam camera-recorder a favorite in movie production, this powerful function allows the overcranking and undercranking techniques used with film cameras to create fast-motion and slow-motion effects. The P2 card offers superior reliability, immediate playback and outstanding cost-performance.

It allows direct connection to nonlinear editing systems and streamlines the production work flow, by providing to the editing system data files ready to be edited, rather than a video tape which would require the task of digitizing. On top of all its advanced features and technologies, the AG-HVX200 inherits the refined design and easy operation that distinguishes Panasonic's high-value DVX100 DV camera series. In the AG-HVX200, video professionals of all kinds will find a powerful tool for giving form to their creative visions. Newly Designed Leica Dicomar 13x Zoom Lens System for HD Applications. The New Leica Dicomar HD Lens. Developed specifically for HD recording, this lens system features a large 82-mm (diameter) filter along with 15 lens elements in 11 groups, including three aspherical lenses. The Leica Dicomar lens incorporates Leica optical technology and know-how throughout. The use of low-dispersion glass reduces color aberration and increases resolution, while a multi-coating process minimizes flare and ghosting. This results in sharp, crisp, beautifully rendered images with delicate nuances and exceptional shading. The Leica Dicomar Lens is a powerful 13x zoom lens designed especially for HD video recording. Extending all the way to 4.2mm (equivalent to 32.5mm on a 35mm lens), this lens covers the full wideangle range needed in most broadcast and professional shooting.

There's no need for a bulky wide-angle conversion lens. With a minimum object distance (MOD) of approximately 1.9 ft (0.6 meter) in telephoto mode, the AG-HVX200 has true handheld maneuverability. And with the same cam-driven zoom ring acclaimed in the DVX100 series, the AG-HVX200 gives you the superior operability and control you need in demanding applications. The lens system features 15 lens elements in 11 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses. Panasonic's advanced OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) dramatically reduces the blurring caused by hand-shake.

Optical processing with an automatic correction function helps assure consistently clear, sharp images. New Progressive CCD and DSP Achieve Higher Sensitivity and Image Quality. Each pixel has a large light-receiving area, giving this newly developed 1/3-type progressive Charge Coupled Device (CCD) the kind of high sensitivity not available in previous compact HD cameras. This advanced CCD combines with a newly developed digital signal processor (DSP) in combination with a very sophisticated offset spatial technology acheives a balance of high resolution and high S/N ratio that rivals HD broadcasting cameras. New DSP with 14-bit A/D Conversion and 19-bit Processing.

The AG-HVX200's newly developed digital signal processor for 1080/60p video signals uses 14-bit A/D conversion and 19-bit inner processing to attain unprecedented accuracy. While the camera does not record 1080/60p, it is from this capture that all other signals are made. The DSP performs a variety of adjustments, including eight types of gamma settings, for each of the R, G and B channels. It also converts the signals to HD or SD format. With a performance equivalent to the processors used in many higher-end HD cameras, this new DSP helps the AG-HVX200 deliver high-quality images in all video formats. High-Resolution Native Progressive 1080/60p Scan. Progressive to interlace conversion, cross conversion and down conversion all start with the 1080p/60 scan.

The initial 1080p native progressive scan offers the highest level of vertical resolution possible at this level of camera. Keep in mind that the camera does not record this signal but uses it as a basis for all capture. The result is an HD or SD recording with a level of image quality that electronically processed scans cannot match.

The AG-HVX200 is the world's first compact camera to offer 1080/24p shooting. It can record onto a P2 card in 1080/60i or 720/60p HD, and it's compatible with the SD (480i) format currently used in TV broadcasting.

The multi-codec system lets you record in DVCPRO 50, DVCPRO and DV. DVCPRO HD: The Image and Sound Quality Broadcasters Demand Supports Multi-Codec Recording.

The Superb Images and Sound of DVCPRO HD Codec. Using the DVCPRO HD codec recording system, the AG-HVX200 records HD video with outstanding image and audio quality onto a P2 card in file format.

This codec, thanks to a low compression ratio at a video bit rate of 100 Mbps (1080/59.94i, 720/59.94p) and the easy-to-edit intraframe compression system, is suitable for recording fast-moving subjects with no motion artifacts other than motion blur. The 4:2:2 sampling rate minimizes jaggies at chroma edges and is advantageous in image and compositing. Sound quality is excellent too, thanks to DVCPRO HD's uncompressed 16-bit, 4-channel digital audio recording capability. P2, which stands for Professional Plug-in, is a compact solid-state memory card designed for professional AV use. Basically, four SD memory cards are packaged together to create a single P2 card.

When striped as a RAID 0 array, this gives the P2 four times the transfer speed and four times the capacity of a single SD memory card. A slim, large-capacity 8-GB P2 card (AJ-P2C008HG) can hold 32 minutes of DVCPRO/DV codec recording yet weighs only about 45 grams.

Compliant with PC Card standards (Type II), the P2 card plugs directly into the card slot of a laptop PC. AV data on the card mounts instantly, with each cut as an MXF file.

The data can be used immediately -- no digitizing necessary -- for nonlinear editing, or it can be transferred over a network. The P2 far surpasses all other AV media in transfer speed, too. The P2 cards transfer data at up to 640 Mbps, which can greatly speed up production processes.

P2 cards surpass all other AV media in transfer speed. Immediate Startup and Better Data Protection. When you press the record button in standby mode, the AG-HVX200 instantly finds a blank area of the P2 card and begins recording. It can begin recording immediately even when you're using it to preview video. In normal use, there's no chance of accidentally overwriting a recording. Recordings will not be erased unless you intentionally delete a file or initialize the card. Hot-Swap Recording and Other Functions that Add Versatility. Hot-swap recording: Thanks to the AG-HVX200's two card slots, you can hot-swap P2 cards and have continuous non-stop recording. With multiple cards you can record for hours without interruption. Or, using an AJ-PCS060G, the "P2 Store, " external hard drive, you can download recorded files from a P2 card and then initialize it (erasing the files), so it's ready for re-use.

Loop recording: Using two P2 cards and setting the AG-HVX200 for consecutive overwriting, you can repeatedly re-record during a particular recurring time slot, always maintaining a recording of the most recent period. Unlike video tape, P2 cards need no rewinding. They minimize wasted time and allow seamless, continuous recording.

This makes them especially useful for unattended monitoring. Pre-rec: While in standby mode, you can continuously store, and subsequently record, up to 7 seconds in DVCPRO50/DVCPRO or 3 seconds in DVCPRO HD of video and audio. In effect, this lets you record footage of events that occur even before you press the rec start button, giving you a way to "go back" and capture moments you otherwise would have missed. One-shot rec: Convenient for producing animation, this mode records for a set time (from 1 frame to 1 second) each time you press the Start button. Interval rec: Recording one frame at a time at set intervals (from 2 frames to 10 min), this mode is useful for monitoring and special ultra-undercranking effects. The AG-HVX200 records each cut as a clip (file) and automatically attaches a thumbnail image and file information to it. To preview a clip on the LCD monitor or to check clip data, simply choose the clip you want from the list of thumbnails. If desired, you can add a simple OK/NG shot marker to each clip either during or after recording.

When a P2 card containing marked clips is inserted in a PC, the PC will display with a M demarkation in the P2 viewer which of the clips is the one with the Marker. Connects Directly to PCs and Macs. In PC mode, the AG-HVX200 connects directly via USB 2.0 to a PC running Windows. In IEEE 1394 device mode, it connects directly to a Mac.

This lets you use the AG-HVX200 as a P2 card drive, providing easy access to recordings on the P2 card. Variable Frame Rates from 12 to 60 fps Allows Cinematic Expression -- A First in this Class.

Variable Frame Rate from 12 to 60 fps. Panasonic's VariCam -- named for its ground-breaking variable frame rate capability -- is widely used in the production of movies, TV programs and commercials. Now with the AG-HVX200, the variable frame rate function is available for the first time in a compact camera. In 720p mode, the frame rate can be set from the conventional 24p/30p to any of 11 steps between 12p and 60p. Like the VariCam, the AG-HVX200 allows the undercranking and overcranking used with film cameras to create fast-motion and slow-motion effects. Higher-speed shooting at 26 to 60 fp produces slow-motion effects. Equipped with Native and Over-60p Modes for Previewing Visual Effects. In the new Native mode, the AG-HVX200 records images at the frame rate set in the camera. For example, in 24p mode it records 24 frames. Using the AG-HVX200 to play back the recording at the normal rate, you can preview the speed effect right on the spot, without using a frame rate converter. Native mode also extends the recording time of a P2 card. This is a VariCam-compatible mode for recording 60p-converted video. For example, in 24p mode it records 60 frames by applying a 2:3 pulldown. The recording time is the same as in 1080i or 720p mode, but the unit can output a DVCPRO HD stream from the IEEE 1394 connector as it records. This lets you produce a backup copy using a connected external hard disk recorder, such as the Panasonic AJ-HD1200A DVCPRO HD recorder or the. The 1080 and 480 progressive recording systems convert recordings to 60i in 24p, 30p, or 24pA (Advance) mode.

The 24p Advance mode uses 2:3:3:2 pulldown and performs 60i/24p conversion with minimum image degradation when recording data is captured via an IEEE 1394 interface to a compatible nonlinear editing system. This lets you maintain superior image quality throughout the production process. Cine-Like Gamma Provides Warmer, Film-Like Color Tones.

Eight-mode Gamma for richer gradation. Eight-Mode Gamma for Richer Gradation. Drawing on technologies developed for the VariCam, Panasonic has equipped the AG-HVX200 with advanced gamma functions that address eight different shooting scenarios and expands your creative abilities. Included are the Cine-Like Gamma, which gives recordings the characteristic warm tone of film recordings, and a News Gamma that's designed especially for news gathering. Create Slow-/Fast-Motion Effects Using Mini DV Tape.

In addition to its two P2 card slots, the AG-HVX200 is equipped with a mini DV tape drive. This allows recording in 60i, 30p, 24p or 24pA (Advance) modes, just like AG-DVX100 series models. It also lets you down-convert an HD source (1080i/720p) recorded on a P2 card and copy it to a mini DV tape. During copying, frame-rate conversion is applied to overcranked and undercranked HD image sources in 720p native mode.

This lets you create special speed effects during DV production -- until now, a feat possible only with a complete VariCam system. Manual Zoom, Focus, Iris and Gain Functions for the Professional.

The cam-driven (mechanical) manual zoom ring provides the same fast, precise zooming as cameras with interchangeable lenses. You'll also enjoy the operating feel. When you turn the zoom ring, you experience the same kind of steady resistance as you feel with 35mm lenses. The AG-HVX200's servo-driven zoom also allows slow zooming. Center Zoom function enlarges the center part of the image, making it easier to get the more precise focus needed in HD production.

Manual Focus with Center Zoom. Enjoy quick, sharp focusing manually or automatically. In manual mode, the focus ring gives you the same kind of operating feel and responsive control as cameras with interchangeable lenses. An HD-compatible focus assist (Center Zoom) function enlarges the center part of the image, making it easier to get the more precise focus needed in HD production.

In auto mode, you get quick focusing when shooting at a high or low angle. When set to infinity, the focal distance is immediately prepared for the next manual focus.

When in manual mode, pressing the Push Auto button temporarily activates auto focus. The large aperture dial (direction setting possible) is designed for easy manual operation. You also can add backlight correction or spotlight correction to the auto aperture function. Increases gain up to 18 dB. The selector has three positions: L is fixed at 0 dB; M and H can be set to 0, +3, +6, +9, or +12 dB.

+18dB can also be quickly accessed by the use of the USER 1, 2 or 3 switch. Two ND filters (1/8 ND, 1/64 ND) are built-in and easily accessible.

Slow, Synchro and High Speed Shutter. Used with the variable frame rate functions, this allows you to create a blurring effect or crystal clear stop motion sports action. The AG-HVX200 also features a synchro scan function that's suitable for capturing screen shots from a computer monitor. Scene File, User Buttons and Auto Functions for Quicker, Easier Shooting.

Set this dial for a set of shooting conditions, and later you can instantly retrieve the settings when needed. Six preset files are provided, and you can change any of the six file names and their settings as desired. You can also transfer the setting files to an SD memory card.

The AG-HVX200 has three user buttons, each of which can be assigned any one of 12 functions (rec check, spotlight, backlight, black fade, white fade, ATW, ATW lock, gain 18dB, focus ring, memo/index, slot sel, shot mark). The assigned functions can then be accessed at the touch of a button. Just select the auto position to turn on Auto Aperture, Auto Gain, Auto Tracking White Balance, and Auto Focus -- and you are immediately ready to shoot. You can also customize the auto mode by removing functions and setting the gain to any value desired. White Balance with the Auto Tracking White Function.

One press of the AWB button is all it takes to adjust the white balance and black balance. There are three white balance values to select from: one that's preset, and two (A, B) that you can set and save in memory. The auto tracking white balance (ATW) function can also be assigned to any of the three positions. The ATW mode supports fast, active shooting by adjusting the white balance in real-time as lighting conditions change. XLR External Microphone Inputs and Manual Adjustment Capability Meets Professional Audio Needs.

In addition to the built-in stereo microphones, the AG-HVX200 is equipped with two XLR audio input terminals with a 48-V phantom power supply for professional use. Both input 1 and input 2 can be switched between line and mic, and Audio is locked to the Video, unlike consumer DV camcorders. AG-HVX200 has the same kind of level-adjustment dials as DVCPRO camera-recorders.
