News Gathering

Out in the field, the P2 Store hard drive lets you use and re-use the same P2 cards repeatedly. Back in the editing room, connect the P2 Store (or a P2 drive) directly to a NLE system. Mobile, reliable and easy to use, the AG-HVX200 speeds up production and gets the news quickly from the field to the air.

HD TV Program Production

Program creation for HDTV can be made in the 1080i or the 720P format with the AG-HVX200. Recordings can be output to a DVCPRO HD VTR via the IEEE 1394 interface and added to the existing HD production flow. Used with the FOCUS FireStore FS-100, the AG-HVX200 can provide extended-time recording.

Film, Commercial and Video Production

Use the AG-HVX200 as a main camera on an independent film shoot, or as a second camera on an VariCam HD production. Or it can be used in a high-end SD production with the AJ-SDX900. The HVX200 records in all of these formats so that you can go where you need to go with the camera. Its size and flexibility make it the camera of choice for many applications; it is mobile, and maneuverable, ready for all kinds of specialty shots.

As a High-End DV Camera

The AG-HVX200 can record in any of the 60i, 30p, 24p and 24pA (Advance) modes used by DVX100 series equipment. Further, thanks to the P2 card recording and down-conversion function, you can copy overcranked
