The compact, AC/DC-powered AJ-HD1200A is ready for a host of active uses. This versatile HD VTR plays all DVCPRO formats (both PAL and NTSC), including DVCPRO HD-LP, and can down-convert HD signals for output as SD signals, allowing its use as both an HD and SD viewer. With its 1080/24p (25p) conversion and output function for variable frame rate sources, the AJ-HD1200A also meets needs in HD cinema production.
Mount an optional board, and the AJ-HD1200A can serve as a recorder in a space-saving, low-cost HD production system. Choose either an SDI type optional board (HD-SDI in/out, SDI out) or an IEEE 1394 type board. With the IEEE 1394 board, the AJ-HD1200A HD becomes the world's first VTR to offer HD input and output via an IEEE 1394 digital interface. This allows the AJ-HD1200A to connect to next generation NLE (Non-Linear Editing) systems, or IEEE 1394 equipped Video Servers.
