Panasonic AG-HPX170PUJ Fully Solid-state 1/3" 3-CCD P2 HD Camcorder
This ultra-mobile P2 HD handheld camcorder features full, 4:2:2 independent frame production quality HD and solid-state recording. Based on the AG-HVX200 series, the lighter HPX170 is fully solid state (no DV mechanism), and comes with a host of enhancements including a new 1/3" progressive 3-CCD imager system, wider Leica Dicomar 13X lens, an HD-SDI interface, and metadata input and management.
The camcorder has two P2 card slots and records in 20 HD and SD formats – from 1080i, 1080p, 720p to 480i. Its newly enhanced 1/3” progressive 16:9 3-CCD imager delivers an excellent signal-to-noise ratio, lower noise/smear, and exceptional low-light performance. Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) allows for better control over highlights and shadows in run and gun situations. The digital signal processor with 14-bit A/D conversion and 19-bit processing assure the high-quality recordings necessary for top-level production and broadcast.
The HPX170 scans the initial image at a 1080p/60; since all camera processing happens at his level, images maintain the highest quality possible up to the final conversion for compression and recording.
