Introduction

The AG-DVX100 has captured the imagination of creative filmmakers, broadcasters, and video professionals around the world, with its 24p (progressive) capabilities. Panasonic has won a total of 15 Emmys, 12 of them for advancements in the area of digital video technology. Panasonics engineers are continuously pushing the limits of product design and the AG-DVX100 is a prime example of their innovation and imagination.

What is 24p?

Lets start with film, which is shot at 24 frames per second. Inherent in this capture rate, is a motion blur that is used by the artistic filmmaker to draw the attention of the viewer to his subject. In the movie theater, film is projected at 48 frames per second due to a shutter in the projector. The AG-DVX100 uses an electronic shutter which the user can set to different speeds. When you watch 24p, you know you are being told a story. Its a different look. Its the difference between the look of a soap opera or the six oclock news and the look of a feature film. There is a three part answer to what must be done to create the cinematic look in video

What is Cine Gamma?

Fact: The contrast ratio of film is greater than contrast ratio of video. Can the range of bright to dark areas be correctly exposed in a scene? Video has been optimized for high ambient lighting during image capture (studio) and viewing (living room). Therefore image brightness has a been much more important than contrast ratio. Film, when used in cinematic presentations, has a very high wide dynamic range providing great detail in both the brightest and darkest areas of the image. The Cine-like Gamma feature of the AG-DVX100 emulates this wider exposure range characteristic and with the recommended 1/2 f-stop under exposure should help to maintain increased highlight handling abilities.

What is Progressive?

Rather than capturing one half of a picture (the odd lines) and 1/60th of a second later capturing the second half of the picture (the even lines), wouldn't it be better to capture an entire frame of video with no temporal (time) difference? Progressive recording does accomplishes this! What progressive recording does is creates a picture with double the scan lines of a conventional interlaced picture, to create a noticeably sharper image.

What is 24p Playback?

If you made a recording in 24p or 24p advanced and now you want to play it back on a standard NTSC video monitor. The AG-DVX100 has a built in telecine or conversion circuit so that you can playback your 24p recordings on a NTSC Monitor. There are two different schemes used in the AG-DVX100, 2:3 and 2:3:3:2. In 24p playback mode we use a 2:3 pulldown scheme and in 24p Advanced mode we use 2:3:3:2. This is actually a method of mapping the 24p into the 30 frames per second NTSC standard video. See the next page for additional details.
What is 24p Playback? Cont
Here is a graphical view of what is taking place when we playback our 24p recorded video.

Main Features

New CCD Imaging System Exceptional picture quality, due to a new 1/3 inch, three CCD progressive imaging system that has 410,000 pixels per chip. This new system was developed specifically for broadcast and professional applications. These new CCDs are able to record light as low as three lux, enabling the shooter to record nighttime events in good detail. The picture quality is outstanding, with a high signal- to- noise ratio and low smear in bright areas. Newly developed Zoom Lens The DVX100 uses a Leica Dicomar lens which incorporates the optical technology of Leica Camera AG. This lens system employs 15 lens elements in 11 groups, including two aspherical lenses, to render a shaper image. A Leica multicoating process is applied to the lenses to reduce flare and ghosts. The 10X zoom has been designed to increase the lens wide-angle (f=4.5 to 45mm) capabilities. The zoom lens utilizes a cam-driven manual zoom ring, with quick, nimble manual zooming as well as a multi-speed servo driven zoom rocker switch, plus a three-speed handle zoom. Optical Image Stabilizer Compensates for Hand Held Production Incorporated in the DVX100 is an OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer) that compensates for slight hand shaking that may occur when shooting handheld. A gyrosensor detects handshake and sends signals to a linear motor, which adjusts the lens to compensate. This process takes place prior to the CCD image capture rather than in the downstream electronic processing, this minimizes any effect of handshake. Worlds First DV 24p Mode and Cine-Like Gamma The DVX100 is the worlds first handheld camera designed with video & cinema looks. You have a choice of three shooting modes, which are selectable, 24p (24 fps progressive) for images with a movie-like look and motion, 30p (30 fps progressive) or standard 60i (60 fps interlaced). Images that are captured in 24p mode, Re converted to either 2:3 (24p Mode) or (24p Advanced) with a 2:3:3:2 pulldown sequence. And recorded onto the video tape in the standard 60i Video format, which allows for playback on an ordinary DV VCR and TV monitor and edited on a DV system.

The Gamma settings menu curve allows you to select from four gamma curves:
CINE-LIKE LOW NORM HIGH Film-like images
Images with strong black contrast Standard video gamma Bright images with enhanced gradation in dark areas and soft contrast.
Scene File Dial for Quick, Easy Camera Setup The scene file dial which is located on the back of the camcorder sets up a variety of shooting conditions, and later you can instantly retrieve the settings for future use. Six suggested preset files are provided (F1 to F6) by the factory. You can freely change any of the six file names and their settings.

Built-In SMPTE Time Code Generator and Reader The DVX100 records SMPTE- compliant VITC onto the Sub-code area of the videotape. Select from DF / NDF and Free Run/Rec Run modes, and use a preset or regen. User bits (UB) are also provided, letting you record your choice of date, time, TC value, frame rate or user data. In 24p the time code is in NDF mode only. IEEE 1394 terminal for non-linear production with Synchro Lock Function Equipped with an IEEE 1394-compliant 4-pin DV terminal that makes it easy to upload data to a PC and dub onto a DV recorder. This terminal also features a new synchro lock function that allows the AG-DVX100 to remotely start and stop an external DV device connected to it via a DV cable, such as the AG-DV1DC portable mini-DV recorder. XLR Audio Input with +48 Volts Phantom Power Supply In addition to a built-in stereo microphone, the DVX100 is equipped with two XLR audio input connectors with switchable +48 volts phantom power. Both input 1 and Input 2 can be switched between line and mic with hard switches at the front of the camcorder. Auto gain level can be turned on and off, and the input mic level (-50dB / -60 dB) can be selected from the menu to ensure proper matching to an external MIC output or the environment. The DVX100 has more special features that will make the Broadcaster or professional shooters job much easier. In order to properly control this camera for generating the most powerful video images, more operators should understand camera process terminology. Experienced camera operators know there are always tradeoffs in every shooting situation. Youll trade shutter speeds for depth of focus, resolution for sensitivity, detail for noise, and the list goes on. The DVX100s extensive menu system will provide the camera operator with additional tools for more creative solutions for image capture. The following menu descriptions show diagrams of these menus and explain the effects of each setup function.

How to use the Setup and operator Menus
The DVX100 offers the operator an extremely flexible setup capability. There are basically two groups of menus, one for Camera functions and the other for VCR Functions. These two groups give you the opportunity to choose from 73 items. Some of the menu items are used jointly in the camera and the VCR. In order to access the menus, first make sure you are not in the record mode. Choose the camera or VCR mode, by pressing the Camera/VCR button located on the lower back section of the camcorder. Now press the menu button located near the viewfinder marked MENU.
Once you pressed the MENU button, the menu will appear in the EVF and also on the LCD screen depending on where the DISPLAY menu is set. (EVF ON / OFF)
The operator may now change the menu by using the Operation Lever in the up direction or down direction. This will highlight each selection, one at a time. Highlight any function that you would like to change. Now press the Operation lever like a button, and this will display the items in that menu selection. To chose the item in this menu, once again press the Operation Lever in the up direction or down direction. To pick your selection press the Operation Lever and this will move the on screen arrow to the selection you want. Now that you have made your selection Press the MENU button two times to exit the menu and return to a normal screen. There is no set button; merely choosing the item then pressing the menu button twice will effect the change. Note: You can not operate the menu system while you are recording.

Master Ped In standard analog video the Pedestal is normally set at 7.5 IRE or 7% and
in digital video it is set at 0 IRE or 0%, this is the black reference for the video signal. This adjustment allows the user to slightly control the pedestal level which is set in the Camera Setup Menu. This will change the black reference for the video signal and allow for either slightly rising of the blacks or the crushing of them.
A Iris Level The automatic iris level controls the iris opening or level of the video automatically based upon Auto mode selection (IRIS) on the side of the camcorder. Gamma Gamma correction is applied in the camera to correct for nonlinear light-output
characteristics of the standard TV picture tube. Picture-tube gamma stretches the whites and compresses the blacks. Camera gamma compresses the whites and stretches the blacks. Camera gamma can be properly set by using logarithmic gray scale charts and a waveform monitor. Camera gamma must be the reciprocal of picture gamma which is 2.2, so the camera gamma is usually 0.45. The DVX100 has four selections for the gamma curve: Cine-Like This gamma curve gives the video image a cinema like look. Its best to set the iris about a 1/2 stop lower then standard video settings. Low This setting allows for a moderate gradient for the low luminance areas. The video image looks a little sharper due to the change in the gamma curve. Norm Standard video images are produced. High This setting allows for a sharp gradient for the low luminance areas, thus the dark areas are extended to make them appear brighter.
Skin Tone DTL The talking head is probably one of the most common shots on television. The Skin Tone Detail is used to improve the head shot quality. When skin tone detail is turned on, the facial skin color has its detail reduced smoothing any skin irregularities, without affecting other areas of the video image.
Matrix The mixture of the primary colors red, blue and green to produce the many hues in
the visible spectrum can be adjusted. We often have to compensate the colors due to lighting conditions. The DVX100 has three settings: Norm Used for shooting under halogen lighting in the studio. FLOU Used for shooting under fluorescent lighting. Cine-Like Used to produce a richer, cinema like color.

ASPECT CONV COLOR BAR SETUP
Syncro Scan Is used to prevent black or white horizontal bars that may appear across
your computer monitor or television, when you are recording a scene that has either of these in it. By setting up the correct syncro scan in the menu, you can press the shutter button on the side of the camcorder and prevent this problem. What you are doing in the MENU, is trying to synchronize the cameras shutter with the scan rate of the computer monitor or television included in the scene.
Aspect Conversion Allows you to select the aspect ratio of the image to be recorded.
The standard images have an aspect ratio of 4:3. When placed in 16:9 aspect ratio the images are recorded with black bands across the top and bottom of the screen creating the 16 by 9 or letter box image. This method is called letterbox and has the major advantage of WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). It you use an external anamorphic lens adaptor, about 25% higher vertical resolution can be obtained which may be more important for film out applications. If Letterbox is selected, the normal CCD based imager signal output of 720 pixels H by 480 pixels V is cropped down to 720 pixels H by 360 pixels V. The remaining 60 pixels at the top and bottom of the picture are forced to black. When an external anmorphic lens is used the source image is optically converted from widescreen 16:9 aspect down to a 12:9 aspect (4:3). Therefore the entire surface of the CCD based imager can be used to capture the image, yielding a full 480 lines of vertical resolution.
Color Bars A SMPTE test signal is generated internally, used to check the cameras performance, it also may be used at the beginning of the videotape as a reference. You can turn this function off or on in this menu. If you leave it on, it will shut off when the camcorder is placed in the VCR mode or the power is shut off. This function does not work in the progressive mode. Setup Also called pedestal, this is the video black level in a video image, 0% is the default setting for the DVX-100. Digital Video uses 0% setup (which is the ITU-R-601 Digital standard setting and Standard analog interlace video uses 7.5%.

special internal generator will place an 80 bit code or number on every recorded frame. The VCR will use this number for precise identification of a frame when editing. This code is recorded with the video and audio signals and is stored in the sub code area on the DV tape. This code contains the hour, minute, second and frame number. In the 80 bits of time code you have a lot of information, such as drop frame information, color frame information and user bit information.
The drop frame is used to keep accurate timing between the vertical timing and the actual time. The drop frame is bit number 10, this bit identifies if the drop frame or the non-drop frame format is being used. If it is 1 the unit is placed into the drop frame mode and will account for the missing frame numbers which are missing due to the timing of the vertical and time. If it is 0 it will be placed into the Non-drop Mode. In the 24p mode we use NDF only. There are 32 User Bits in each 80 bit code, these user bits can be used to identify the user information, the time, the date, the time code generators value, or the frame rate. There are two ways to start recording time code, record run and free run. Normally, for most productions the VCRs time code is set to the Record run mode. In this mode the time code will be set to zero at the start of the days recording (operates only during record) and a continuous record is produced on each video tape covering all takes. In the free run mode the time code is running regardless of the VCRs operation mode.
TC Mode This item selects DF (Drop Frame) or NDF (Non-drop Frame) modes and as explained this item corrects timing differences. Note: When the progressive mode, 24P or 24P ADV is used, the non drop frame mode is set regardless of the setting. TCG This item selects FREE RUN OR REC RUN, For continuity, its best to leave in the REC RUN mode.
First Rec TC This item allow the user to select the time code that will be used when
recording is started. REGEN: In this mode the time code is regenerated from the time code on the video tape if there is any. PRESET: Here the time code is recorded using the value set in the TC PRESET item serving as the initial value.

Coated Optics Is lens with a special coating to minimize the amount of light reflected back to the lamp, and the amount of ambient light that mingles with the focused light leaving the lens. Codec Coder Decoder, a device used to encode a signal and decode it. Color Bars A test signal that should be recorded at the beginning of every videotape. The color bars test signal provides the necessary elements of a video signal that are added during the initial set up of a tape machine. Color Burst A few (8 to 10) cycles of 3.58MHz color sub carrier, which occur during the back porch interval. Color burst amplitude is 40 IEEE units and phase is 180 degrees. The color oscillator of a color television receiver is phase locked to the color burst. Color Difference Signal The calculation of the chroma signal (R-Y, B-Y and G). Color Phase The correct timing relationship within a color display - color is considered to be in-phase when the hue is reproduced correctly. Color Sub carrier The 3.58MHz signal which carries color information. This signal is superimposed on the luminance level. Amplitude of the color sub carrier represents saturation and phase angle represents hue. Color Temperature A measurement of overall color of a source of light, measured in degrees Kelvin (K). The higher the Kelvin reading the more blue the light, the lower the Kelvin Temperature the redder the light. Normally, video uses lights that are 3200 Degrees Kelvin. Component The normal interpretation of a component video signal is one in which the luminance and chrominance are sent as separate components, e.g. Analog components in MII and Betacam VCRs, digital components UCRCB in CCIR re 601. RGB is, however, also a component signal. Component video signals retain maximum bandwidth, unlike composite systems. Composite A composite video signal is one in which the luminance and chrominance information have been combined using one of the coding standards: NTSC, PAL, SECAM, etc. Composite Sync A signal consisting of horizontal sync pulses, vertical sync pulses, and equalizing pulses only, with a no signal reference level. Composite Video A mixed signal comprised of the luminance (black and white), chrominance (color), blanking pulses, sync pulses and color burst. Compression A process used to store digital information in a smaller block of space than it would normally take Compression Ratio This is the ratio of data in the original video picture signal to the amount of data after compression. Contrast The range of light and dark values in a picture or the ratio between the maximum and the minimum brightness values. Low contrast is shown mainly as shades of gray, while high contrast is shown as blacks and whites with very little gray. It is also a TV monitor adjustment, which increases or decreases the level of contrast of a televised picture. Contrast Ratio A method of measuring the dynamic range of an image. A large contrast ratio indicates that the projector works well despite extraneous light. D DATA Digital information stored or used by a computer dB Decibel dBm A measurement of sound, measurement made across 600 ohms. DCT - Discrete Cosine Transformer is widely used to compress video; here 8x8 picture elements are converted to 8x8 frequency elements. This way the higher frequency numbers can be minimized and compression made simpler. DV Digital Video

DVCPRO - New digital format Decibel (dB) One decibel is one tenth of a Bel and is used to measure audio and video signals expressed by the ratio of two amounts of electric. It is also used to measure power differences in voltage, current, watts and sound pressure. Depth of Field The front to back zone in a field of view, which is in focus in the televised scene. With a greater depth of field, more of the scene, near to far, is in focus. Detail Resolution or clarity of the picture. Drop Frame A type of time code that can be used as a real time reference. E Error Concealment Use to conceal errors in digital recorded. F Fade Used in editing to gradually increase or decrease the video signal from black. Fading in is from black to full strength and fade out is from full strength to black. Field One half of a scanned image. A field can be referred to as an odd field or an even field. Each field is made up of 262 1/2 lines. There are two fields per frame and 60 fields per second. Two fields make up a complete television picture (frame). The lines of Field 1 are vertically interlaced with Field 2 for 525 lines of resolution. Flying Erase Head A special video erase head that allow for cleaner edits. F Number In lenses with adjustable irises, the maximum iris opening is expressed as a ratio, (focal length of the lens) (maximum diameter of aperture). Focal Length The distance from the center of the lens to a plane at which point a sharp image of an object viewed at an infinite distance from the camera is produced. The focal length determines the size of the image and the angle of the field of view seen by the camera through the lens. That is the distance from the center of lens to the pickup device. Foot Candle The amount of light reflected by a white surface one foot away from a lit candle. The metric equivalent is the lux. Foot Lambert One lumen or one foot candle of light over a one square foot surface. Format In recording of video, C, U-Matic, Betacam, M, Betacam SP, M-II, D1 D2, D3, D5, DV, DVCPRO, Beta, VHS, Hi8, 8mm and S-VHS are all current formats. Frame The combination of an odd and even field of the video signal. In each frame of video there are 525 lines of information in the NTSC system. There are thirty frames in a second. (625 lines, 1/25 sec. in Europe and many other countries). Frame Rate The amount of frames per second that has been set up for a particular television system. Black and white television uses a thirty frame per second rate, while color television uses 29.97 frames per second rate. Frequency Response The frequency range that both audio or video systems can reproduce a signal within a stated amplitude range. Front Porch That period of time during horizontal blanking that starts from the end of the scanned video image and goes to the horizontal sync pulse. G Gain The amplification of a unit. Gray Scale A series of tones, which range from true black to true white, it is usually expressed in 10 steps. H HDTV High Definition Television Hz Hertz Head The parts of a tape machine that play back or record signals on the tape.

being passed through. Letterbox Format used to fit wide screen movies (1.85:1 and 2.35:1, for example) on the average, 1.33:1 TV screen. The image is shrunk to fit the screen, leaving blank space on the top and bottom. Line Frequency The rate or number of video lines that are being read or scanned by the electron beam per interval. There are 262 1/2 lines scanned per field, 525 lines scanned per frame and 15,750 lines of video information scanned every second. Liquid Crystal A liquid in which the molecules are arranged in a regular pattern. LTC (Longitudinal Time Code) This is another expression for the SMPTE time code signal recorded onto the third audio track of a videocassette tape. Luminance refers to the amount of visually effective light emitted by a light source. Typically expressed in nits, foot lamberts (fL) or candelas per square meter (cd/m2). One fL = 3.43 cd/m2 or 3.42626 nits, One cd/m2 = 0.292fL or 1 nit Lux A unit of measuring the e intensity of light. (1 FC=10.76 lux). M MHz Short for megahertz, which is 1 million Hz. MPEG Motion Pictures Expert Group Megabyte One million bytes of data. Memory A storage place for computer data. Microphone A piece of equipment that will convert sound into electrical signals for recording and use by audio equipment, such as sound amplifiers. N NTSC National Television Systems Committee National Television Standard Committee (NTSC) This organization formulated the NTSC system, 525 lines 60 field; usually taken to mean the NTSC color television system itself, or its interconnect standards. Non-Drop Frame A type of time code that runs at thirty frames a second and does not allow for the slower color frame rate of television. NTSC Color Bars A pattern generated by the NTSC Generator, consisting of eight equal width color bars. Colors are white (75%), black (7.5% set-up level), 75% saturated pure colors red, green, and blue, and 75% saturated hues of yellow, cyan, and magenta. (Mixtures of two colors in 1:1 ratio without third color). O One Volt "Peak to Peak" - A reference to the measurement of a video signal which should go from -40 IRE units for sync up to 100 IRE units for the luminance level. The distance from -40 to 100 (140 IRE units) is referred to as 1 volt peak to peak. P PCM Pulse Code Modulation Peak White The white portion of the video signal. Pedestal The level of the video signal representing black, normally set at 7.5 IRE units. Phone Plug This type of plug is mostly used on a microphone or pair of headsets. There are basically two types stereo and mono. Phono Plug Known as a RCA plug it is used with audio amplifiers. Pixel Picture Element or Pix Element; related to a particular image address in digital systems or to the smallest reproducible element in analog systems. Pixel Depth The number of bits used to address a pixel. Also called color depth, the bit depth determines the number of colors that can be displayed at one time.
