The AG-HVX200 P2minCam debuted as the first camcorder featuring Panasonic's P2 (professional plug-in) card, developed as a recording memory for professional systems. Because the core P2 products use no drive mechanisms, they provide superior resistance to impact, vibration and temperature change.

The AG-HVX200 inherits many of the functions of the popular AJ-HDC27,variable frame rate camera-recorder, which enhanced the production of movies and TV programs. The AG-HVX200's variable frame rate function responds to both slow and quick action. Its true 25p/50p progressive video, cine-like gamma curves and cinelike colour matrix capture images and scenes with the same look and feel as footage from a film camera.

Also able to record standard definition in the DVCPRO50, DVCPRO and DV formats, the AG-HVX200 supports image creation from the entire DVCPRO family of equipment straight into the IT enviroment. The standards for 1080 and 576 signals support 50i and 25p and for the 720 standard, P2miniCam supports 25 and 50 in progressive mode.

The Panasonic HVX200 P2 hire package is available from On Sight on a 'four day week' and includes two 16GB P2 cards and a tripod. For more information, or to arrange a demo at our W1 premises, call the HD hire bookings team on +44(0) 20 7637 0888.
