High-Resolution Native Progressive 1080/60p Scan HD/SD Multi-Format Recording Progressive to interlace conversion, cross conversion and down conversion all start with the 1080p/60 scan. That initial 1080p Native Progressive Scan offers the highest level of vertical resolution possible at this level of camera. Keep in mind that the camera does not record this signal but uses it as a basis for all capture.
Revolution of Work Flow A Semiconductor Memory that Reflects Today's Leading Digital Technologies Super-Compact, Large Capacity and High Speed P2, which stands for Professional Plug-in, is a compact solid-state memory card designed for professional AV use. Basically, four SD Memory Cards are packaged together to create a single P2 card. When striped as a RAID 0 array, this gives the P2 four times the transfer speed and four times the capacity of a single SD Memory Card.
•Pre-rec: While in standby mode, you can continuously store, and subsequently record, up to 7 seconds in DVCPRO or 3 seconds in DVCPRO HD of video and audio. In effect, this lets you record footage of events that occur even before you press the rec start button, giving you a way to "go back" and capture moments you otherwise would have missed. •One-shot rec: Convenient for producing animation, this mode records for a set time (from 1 frame to 1 second) each time you press the Start button.
VariCam Creativity Variable Frame Rates from 12 to 60 fps Allows Cinematic Expression — A First in this Class INHERITING THE EXPRESSIVE POWERS OF THE VARICAM the AG-HVX200 allows the undercranking and overcranking used with film cameras to create fast-motion and slow-motion effects. *In 1080 and 480 modes, the frame rate can be set only to 24p or 30p.
