HIGH SENSITIVITY

the Image Quality and Sensitivity of High-End Professional Camera Recorders.
P2 Memory Card Recorder: Lower Operating Costs, Better for the Environment
P2 Reduces Total Cost of Ownership
(1)Faster, easier editing because digitization is not necessary (2)Lower media costs because memory cards are reusable (3)Lower maintenance costs because there is no moving mechanism By reducing editing, media and maintenance costs, P2 can help improve your bottom line. Users can also take advantage of a special fiveyear free-repair service program that Panasonic offers for P2 HD equipment.
The P2 Card Helps Preserve the Environment: Repeated Reusability and Low Power Consumption
Allowing repeated file copying and initialization, a single P2 card can be used and re-used, again and again. When combined with an IT-based workflow that requires no dubbing, P2 cards can greatly reduce storage media expenses. And because a memory card recorder has no moving mechanism, it uses less power. For example, the AG-HPX370 series uses about 51% less power than the tapebased AJ-HDX900 camcorder.

Camera Section

Newly Developed U.L.T.*1 Image Sensor with F10*2 Sensitivity and Superb Image Quality
High levels of sensitivity and image quality have been achieved with a new high-sensitivity photodiode and low-noise pixel transistor, both based on low-noise analog process technology that was accumulated in Panasonic CCD camera development. Plus, the same levels of sensitivity and image quality that are found in Interlace mode are now possible in Progressive mode thanks to P.A.P. (Progressive Advanced Processing), a 3D adaptive processing technology.
The AG-HPX370 series features a newly developed camera section with a 2.2-megapixel image sensor and 20 bit digital signal processor. Image quality is outstanding.
Fujinon High-Performance 17x Zoom Lens
The AG-HPX370 series comes equipped with a Fujinon 1/3-inch 17x zoom lens. Optimized for use with the AG-HPX370 series, this highperformance HD lens incorporates advanced broadcast lens technologies to achieve a compact size, light weight, F1.6 at 4.5 mm f-value at the wide end, and excellent zoom response. The zoom is comfortable to grip and use. Also, quick zoom and auto cruising zoom functions can be allocated to the VTR and RET switches.
Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC)
Newly developed 1/3-inch U.L.T. image sensor
This exclusive technology sets up a conversation between lens and camera which allows for a highly sophisticated algorithm to be deployed that will automatically compensate the registration error that is caused mainly by lens chromatic aberration, and minimize the circumjacent blur.

Cine-like Functions

7-Mode Gamma for Richer Gradation
Drawing on technologies developed for the VariCam, Panasonic has equipped the AG-HPX370 series with advanced gamma functions that address seven different shooting scenarios and enhance your creative abilities. This includes the Cine-Like Gamma, which produces the characteristic tone of film recordings.
AG-HPX370 series Gamma Modes HD NORM: Suitable for standard HD recording LOW: Works to flatten out a high contrast scene SD NORM: Normal setting for SD HIGH: Provides more contrast and color gradation B.PRESS: Provides more contrast and blacks in low contrast scenes CINE-LIKE D: The Cine-Like mode shifted to prioritize dynamic range CINE-LIKE V: The Cine-Like mode shifted to prioritize contrast
The gamma, variable frame rate and other advanced functions let you capture images with a cinema-like feel, expanding your creative and expressive possibilities.
Normal cinematic shooting (at 24 fps, 25 fps or 30 fps) refers to the same rate as used in film cameras. The AG-HPX370 series can record in 1080/24p (over 60i) or 480/24p (over 60i) mode, as well as 720/24p mode. 25 fps or 30 fps is the standard frame rates used in the production of TV commercials, music clips and video software. The AG-HPX370 series can also record in 1080/25p (over 50i), 1080/30p (over 60i), 576/25p (over 50i) or 480/30p (over 60i) mode, as well as 720/25p and 720/30p mode.

*In 25 pN mode in 50 Hz system mode, AG-HPX370 series records only 25 frames instead of the normal 50 frames
00% (Standard) 25% (Quick) 1 1
720p over 50p/60p Mode This is a mode for recording 50p-converted or 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 P2 recorder such as AJ-HPM200 or AG-HPG20, DVCPRO HD recorder.
*Only when the recording format is DVCPRO HD. There is no output when the AVC-Intra codec is used. *24p = 23.98p, 30p = 29.97p, 60p = 59.94p and 60i = 59.94i
1080/480 24p Advance Mode (in 59.94Hz mode)
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, which allows for an easy extraction to a 24p timeline and no quality loss in the process with compatible NLEs.*
*AVC-Intra recording is not possible. * For information on compatible nonlinear editing systems, visit <https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/> and click "Nonlinear Compatibility Information." *24p = 23.98p, 30p = 29.97p, 60p = 59.94p and 60i = 59.94i Shown above is a sample of operation style.
Scan Reverse Function for Use with Film Lenses
The AG-HPX370 series comes with scan reverse. This function cancels the image inversion that occurs when a Cinema lens adaptor is used.

AVC-Intra Codec

Comes Equipped with AVC-Intra Codec
An AVC-Intra codec board is included as standard equipment. It allows recording in either of two modes: AVC-Intra 100 for full-pixel HD (1920 x 1080 and 1280 x 720) images, or AVC-Intra 50 for low-bit-rate, low-cost operation. AVC-Intra is a new codec that further advances HD production. It complies with the MPEG-4 AVC/ H.264 international standard based on advanced image compression technology, and offers both superb image quality and highly efficient compression. It uses an intra-frame compression system to bring important advantages to professional editing. In the AG-HPX370 series, a new single-chip digital signal processor is integrated with the AVC-Intra codec circuit. This is another way the AG-HPX370 series reduced power consumption.
High-quality 1920 x 1080 pixel, 10 bit, 4:2:2 HD recording
High-Image-Quality AVC-Intra 100 Mode

Twice the Compression Efficiency of MPEG-2
By selecting the most effective compression techniques from among those in compliance with the H.264 standard, AVC-Intra has doubled the compression ratio of MPEG-2, even with I-Frame Only compression. Its intraframe predictive and context-adaptive entropy coding are particularly effective methods for boosting compression efficiency. Intraframe predictive coding (intra prediction) This process generates predictive images based on adjacent blocks of 8 x 8 pixels. Selecting the most suitable predictive mode from among nine luminance signal modes (see illustration) and four color signal modes, it generates accurate predictive images. The residual data (obtained by subtracting a predictive image from the original input image) is recorded together with the predictive image. Because the prediction accuracy is high, theres minimal residual data, and thus high compression is achieved. This process is conducted within the frame, so prediction accuracy remains high even with fast-motion images.

Context-adaptive entropy coding The entropy coding process used in MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 utilizes CAVLC (Context Adaptive VLC) and CABAC (Context Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding), both of which are context adaptive. MPEG-2 uses a fixed table when performing the VLC coding, with the result that compression efficiency is low with some types of images. In context-adaptive coding, on the other hand, operation varies with different kinds of images and high compression efficiency is maintained at all times.

New One-Clip Rec Mode

The One-Clip Rec mode is handy for recording a variety of events. Whereas normal Rec mode produces a clip for each Rec start/stop cut, One-Clip Rec mode records up to 99 consecutive cuts as a single clip, which greatly improves the nonlinear editing work that follows. A text memo is automatically attached when recording begins, making it easy to find desired cuts within the clip.
REC START REC START REC START REC START
Pre-rec*: While in standby mode, you can continuously store, and subsequently record, up to 3 seconds in HD (7 seconds in SD). This will help you to get your shot every time. Interval rec*: This gives you automatic intermittent recording based on a set interval and recording time. One-shot rec*: This frame-shot recording function is useful for producing animations. Rec review: This lets you run a quick playback check of the 2 to 10 seconds that lead up to the end of the clip you have just recorded.
* These functions cannot be used for variable frame rate, native mode, and 1080/24p over 59.94i, 720/24p over 59.94p, 720/25p over 50p recording. * Pre-rec is not possible in loop-rec, interval-rec, or one-shot rec mode.
Text Memo (Bookmark) for Simple Editing
When recording or previewing a clip, press the Text Memo button at any of up to 100 locations and a text memo label, similar to a bookmark, is registered. Using only the AG-HPX370 series, you can create a new clip with data copied between text memo labels. Text information can also be written into each memo using the AG-HPX370 series or a PC with P2 Viewer installed. A shot mark, which allows convenient OK and NG marking, can also be added to each clip during or after recording.
*Text memo, shot mark can not be added in Loop-rec, Interval-rec, or One-shot rec mode.

Notes Regarding the Handling of P2 Files Using a PC
Mounting and Transferring Files The PC must be installed with the included P2 driver in order to recognize, copy and transfer P2 files. This driver is also necessary when using the PC card slot and when handling P2 files stored on a hard-disk device, such as P2 store. The included P2 driver is compatible with Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000 and Mac OSX. For other operating requirements, refer to the P2 installation manual. The P2 driver and the P2 installation manual can be downloaded free from a Panasonic website. Visit https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/ and click "P2 Support and Download." Preview and Nonlinear Editing To preview (play) P2 files on a PC, it is necessary to install P2 Viewer software (downloadable for free, for Windows only) or P2 CMS content management software (downloadable for free, for both Windows and Mac), both from Panasonic, or P2-compatible editing software available from other companies (for details, visit https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/sales_o/p2/partners.html). Note that each software places specific requirements on the operating environment, and the operating environment must meet additional requirements to play and edit HD content on Windows PCs and Macs.
