AG-HPX300 / AG-HPX370 General


Q1. What is the typical recording time in AVC-Intra 100 & AVC-Intra 50?

The AVC-Intra video codec provides longer recording time without compromising HD quality.

Also, by utilizing intra-frame compression with its frame bound compression, AVC-intra is unaffected by motion or rapid changes in scene content.

Q2.Can the product start recording even in playback mode?

Yes, AG-HPX300 / AG-HPX370 series immediately starts recording when REC button is pressed even in playback mode or displaying thumbnail. This is one of the advantages of P2 system.

 


Q3.Does the AG-HPX300 / AG-HPX370 series have multiple SDI output? I want to have two video signals for monitoring and back up recording purpose.

Yes, AG-HPX300 / AG-HPX370 series is equipped with two SDI OUTPUTs.

 

Panasonic recommends you to use AG-HPG20 portable recorder, capable of AVC-Intra recording, as a back up recorder. REC START/STOP can remotely be controlled from AG-HPX300  / AG-HPX370 series by connecting with an SDI line only.
