Random Access Playback and Nonlinear Editing: The P2 deck

The P2 Series provides super-fast news transmission from mobile vans. This is thanks in part to the P2 deck, which features five P2 card slots and the same kind of jog & shuttle operation as a VTR. Simply view the thumbnails of the recorded clips on the front-panel Colour LCD Monitor, and use the jog dial to select the ones you want. The clips can be played back instantly for on-air playback.

Its Playlist function lets you play the equivalent of 100 events on a nonlinear editor, for quick post- acquisition program production and transmission. With a USB 2.0 cable, you also can connect the P2 deck to a PC and use the deck as an external drive for a P2-compatible nonlinear editor.

New P2 Drive for High-Speed PC/Mac Networks P2 provides unique high-speed, low-cost solutions in IT networks with nonlinear editors and servers. The new AJ-PCD20 P2 drive lets you use P2 cards in your desktop computer.* Or, using the P2 drive and a P2-compatible nonlinear editor, you can edit recorded files as video clips right on the P2 card itself. There is no need for digitising. The new P2 drive, which offers an IEEE 1394b interface as well as a USB2.0 interface, brings even greater speed to data transfer with either a Windows PC or a Mac.

* The P2 card driver (standard equipped) must be installed.

The P2 card driver operates under Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Mac OS X.

New P2 HD Series Continues to Evolve

The new P2 HD series offers full high-definition capabilities. In addition to the AG-HVX200 handheld camera-recorder now available, Panasonic will introduce a steady stream of new P2 HD products, including an HD-compatible P2 cam and P2 mobile. In each of these products, the HD/SD multi-codec will allow smooth migration from all previous DVCPRO systems. There are also plans to support the new AVC-Intra (H.264 compliant) codec*. As it continues to advance, the new P2 HD series is bringing to HD the outstanding reliability, speed and

IT compatibility that make P2 such a revolutionary

development.

 

* Requires optional equipment. The AG-HVX200 does not support

PC

the AVC-Intra (H.264 compliant) codec.
