tiptop
The Panasonic AG-HPG20 is a portable P2 card recorder and playback device capable of reading DVCPRO, standard DV as well as the high-quality codec, AVC-Intra. Its rugged frame and ability to function on standard Panasonic 12VDC batteries make it ideal for field recording. The two P2 card slots are hot-swappable and support resolutions ranging from NTSC or PAL standard definition all the way up to 1080p. The AG-HPG20 allows users to monitor, record, downconvert, and archive P2 footage while still having access to Panasonic's intuitive thumbnail viewing interface, making P2 solid-state recording both efficient and affordable.
Multiple Formats
The AG-HPG20 can play back all Panasonic formats, including DVCPRO 50, DVCPRO HD, as well as the incorporation of AVC-Intra. AVC-Intra records full raster 1920 x 1200 10-bit 4:2:2 footage, making it Panasonic's highest quality codec.
With professional inputs/outputs (IEEE 1394, USB 2.0 and HD-SDI) and AVC-Intra support, the P2 Portable serves as a low-cost, master-quality deck for fast, file-based recording in high quality production workflows.
The unit's HD/SD-SDI input terminal gives the flexibility of HD or SD line recording from a wide range of video sources, bridging content to and from older tape-based systems and new HD-SDI infrastructures.
The shock-resistant, solid-state recorder features a wide range of clip playback and management functions (including metadata editing), speakers and easy-to-use controls.
The battery-powered HPG20 is compatible with Panasonic's range of camcorders and camera systems and can work with a broad range of non-Panasonic camera systems. Windows PC and Mac compatible.
