VariCam 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 program cinematographers.
Introducing the AJ-HDC27H, the second-generation VariCam HD camera-recorder that's suitable for producing all types of image content.
The AJ-HDC27H combines variable frame rates that emulate the speed effects of a film camera with cine gamma image quality that offers the sufficient latitude to take full advantage of the full dynamic range of film theater projection.
