AJ-HDC27H Variable Frame-Rate HD Camera-Recorder
Panasonic Keeps Evolving Digital Video with the Sensitivity of Film Panasonic continues to expand the boundaries of video production with breakthrough digital image technologies that put more expressive power in the hands of movie, TV commercial, and episodic TV programme cinematographers. Introducing the AJ-HDC27H, the second-generation variable frame rate HD camera-recorder that's suitable for producing all types of image content.
VARIABLE FRAME RATE Offers Advanced Speed Effects and Produces All Types of Content – Only the Panasonic Variable Frame Rate The Panasonic AJ-HDC27H is the video camera able to emulate the "undercranking" and "overcranking" technique of film cameras to slow down or speed up images. By varying the frame rate from 4 to 60 fps and adjusting the shutter speed from 3.0º to 350.0º (0.8% to 97.2%) of the frame rate, you can create a wide range of cinematic effects.
Lower-speed Shooting at 4 to 23* fps For example, shooting at 12 fps lets you attain a 2x fast- Normal Shooting at 24 fps (for Film) or 25 fps (for TV programme) Normal cinematic shooting is done at true 24 fps, the same rate as in film cameras, or at the 25 fps used for TV programmes and commercials. Discrete 720p images and a specially developed film gamma curve create images with the same tonal motion effect with playback at the cinema speed of 24 fps.
CINE GAMMA Video with the Same Latitude as Film – Only Panasonic Film Gamma Selection The extremely wide reproductive range of film is the key to its lush expression. Panasonic's new gamma curves — developed specifically to allow a CCD camera to produce the tonal qualities of film — now bring film's natural shading and rich coloration to the video camera. The AJ-HDC27H also lets you switch between video and film gamma modes.

AJ-GBX27 Field mode corrects underexposed and low-contrast F.REC gamma images, and outputs monitor images with full film texture that can be used to check the lighting. There's a setting for ordinary daylight and one for nighttime shooting. HD Gamma Corrector Telecine mode is a post-processing mode that uses movie footage to produce TV content with a film-like texture (a telecine look).
Full-Featured Studio VTR The AJ-HD1700 is a DVCPRO HD high-end studio master VTR that answers today’s most advanced needs in high-definition production and broadcasting. Featuring the new DVCPRO HD-LP format, the AJ-HD1700 records and plays up to 126 minutes with an XL cassette. It can record three types of HD images — 1080/60i, 720/60p, and 1080/50i — and is equipped with eight digital audio channels for 5.1-channel surround sound.
BT-LH1700W Equipped with an F.REC gamma corrector, these 16:9, HD-ready monitors convert images recorded with AJ-HDC27H in F.REC mode into the appropriate gamma curves for viewing. This simplifies F.REC acquisition, eliminating the need for a separate HD gamma corrector. BT-LH900 The BT-LH1700W offers the superior image quality and advanced functions needed for HD production.
