Shoulder-Type Performance and Functions in a Handheld Camera Recorder for Broadcast Use

The high-performance AG-HPX255/HPX250 P2 handheld camera recorders fill out the P2HD Series by incorporating the newest technologies throughout — in the lens, camera and recorder sections. The newly developed 22x zoom lens covers a wide shooting range, from wide-angle to telephoto, and features three manual rings for precise control. Imaging is optimized by the high-sensitivity, low-noise 1/3-type 2.2-megapixel U.L.T. (Ultra Luminance Technology) 3MOS image sensors. And the AG-HPX250/HPX255 are the first handheld models to support AVC-Intra codecs. This combination produces a level of performance that rivals many full-size shoulder-type camera recorders, and adds the high-quality acquisition of Full-HD (1920 x 1080) in 10 bit, 4:2:2 full sampling. Image expression is also boosted by the Variable Frame Rate (VFR) function, and system expansion for broadcasting and other production applications is provided by multi-camera synchronizing. The stylish design of the AG-HPX250/HPX255 adds further to both mobility and operating ease, and opens a new stage for news gathering and image acquisition. In addition to these specifications, the AG-HPX255 is fully prepared for broadcast use, including camera remote capabilities when combined with the optional AG-EC4G Extension Control Unit.
