AGMini-DV Camera-Recorder (PAL) Mini Digital Video Cassette
An Evolution in DV for Professionals New AG-DVX102B – World's First DV Camera-Recorder to Support Multi-Camera Recording Already used for film and TV program production as well as news gathering, Panasonic's DVX series has now evolved further with the AG-DVX102B. The AG-DVX102B debuts as the industry's first DV camera-recorder to allow camera-to-camera time-code synchro and user-settable file transfer.
Superior Image Rendering with the Leica Dicomar™ Lens, Plus OIS The Leica Dicomar lens featured in the AG-DVX102B incorporates Leica optical technology and know-how. Use of low-dispersion glass reduces colour aberration and increases resolution, while a multicoating process minimizes flare and ghosting. The results are sharp, crisp, beautifully rendered images with delicate nuances and exceptional shading. The lens system features 15 lens elements in 11 groups, including three aspherical lenses.
470,000-Pixel, 3CCD Image System Provides F11 Sensitivity for Superior Image Quality Panasonic designed the AG-DVX102B to deliver the highest sensitivity and picture quality in its class. At its heart is a 3CCD RGB system comprising three 1/3-inch, 470,000-pixel progressive CCDs developed especially for broadcast and professional applications.
Wide-Angle/Zoom Lens Answers Professional Needs The AG-DVX102B's zoom lens extends all the way to 4.5 mm (equivalent to 32.5mm on a 35mm lens), covering the full wide-angle range needed in most broadcast and professional shooting. It gives you ample range for close-ups, recording in small rooms, and self-recorded interviews. There's no need to carry around a bulky wide-angle conversion lens. And with a minimum object distance (MOD) of approximately 0.
Focus Assist Auto Button for Instant, Easy Shooting Enjoy quick, sharp focusing manually or automatically. In auto mode, you get the quick, sharp focusing needed in news gathering or 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. Macro Focus can be achieved either Manually or Automatically when the zoom lens is in the wide angle position.
First DV camera-recorder with time-code synchro function – Supports multi-angle recording with multiple cameras Connecting two AG-DVX102B units together with a DV cable (IEEE1394) allows synchronous time-code setting, which then enables time-code-locked editing of clips recorded with multiple camerarecorders for "TC synchro editing." The AG-DVX102B is the industry's first DV camera-recorder with this function, which was previously available only on bigger, bulkier camera-recorders.
New remote operation function – Controls zoom, Rec, focus and iris The AG-DVX102B is equipped with terminals that allow remote control of focus and iris settings. You can combine these control functions with the conventional remote control functions (zoom, Rec start/stop) to create an easy-to-use remote control system for mounting to the handle section of a tripod or on a remote arm of a jib.
Switches and connectors are arranged to allow easy use of the AG-DVX102B's many functions, and a host of bundled accessories and available options prepare it for action just about anywhere.
