Panasonic HPX170 DVCproHD P2 Camera

The AG-HPX170 is an ultra-mobile P2 HD handheld camcorder featuring full, 4:2:2 independent frame, production-quality HD and solid-state recording. The HPX170 is lighter than the HVX200, is fully solid state, and comes with a host of enhancements, including a 1/3" progressive 3-CCD imager system, wider Leica Dicomar 13x lens, an HD-SDI interface, and metadata input and management. The HPX170 has two P2 card slots and records in 20 HD and SD formats. Its newly enhanced 1/3" progressive 16:9 3-CCD imager delivers an excellent signal-to-noise ratio, lower noise/smear, and exceptional low-light performance. The camera has high-end features like Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS), which allows for better control over highlights and shadows in run-and-gun situations. The digital signal processor, with 14-bit A/D conversion and 19-bit processing, ensures high-quality recordings necessary for top-level production and broadcast. The HPX170 captures the initial image at 1080p/60 and the camera's initial processing happens at this level regardless of the selected recording resolution and frame rate. As such, images maintain their highest quality possible right up to the final conversion for compression and recording.
