Panasonic AG-HPX502 Clip Thumbnail/Data Function, Shot Marker and Text Memo, SD Memory Card Slot

* Must have P2 Viewer installed

•One-shot rec: Convenient for producing animation, this mode records for a set time (from 1 frame to 1 second) each time you press the Start button.

•Interval rec: Recording one frame at a time at set intervals (from 2 frames to 10 min), this mode is useful for monitoring and special ultra-undercranking effects.

Clip Thumbnail/Data Function

The P2 cam records each recording as a clip (file) and automatically attaches a thumbnail image and file information to it. To preview a clip on the LCD monitor or to check clip data, simply choose the clip you want from the list of thumbnails.

The thumbnail image and file information can also be displayed on a PC (using P2 Viewer*) or nonlinear editing software.

* P2 Viewer software for Windows PCs can be downloaded, free of charge.

Shot Marker and Text Memo

A shot mark, which allows convenient OK and NG marking, can be added to each clip during or after recording. When a P2 card with marked clips is inserted in a PC*, it's possible to have only the marked clips displayed. The AG-HPX502 also has a text memo function. When recording or previewing a clip, press the Text Memo button at any of up to 100 locations and a blank text memo label is registered. On your PC*, you can then search for the label and write a memo into it.
