(Reference values when Panasonic bland SD memory cards or SDHC memory cards are used for continuous recording. Actual recording time depends on the kind of scenes and the number of clips.)
The values for 8 GB and 16 GB SDHC memory cards are double and four times the values for the 4 GB card.

General
Features of the Input/Output unit
The HD SDI signals output from the HD SDI A · B connectors and the MON OUT connector are independent. Characters and markers can therefore be set independently (note that the same signal is output from the HD SDI A connector and the HD SDI B connector).
SDI output includes embedded audio etc.
Features USB 2.0 port (HOST/DEVICE)By connecting with a PC via USB 2.0, a P2 card inserted in the unit can be used as a bulk storage device.
Also, since this unit has a USB HOST capability, it is possible to store P2 card data on an external hard disk connected using USB 2.0, to view clips stored on the hard disk and to write clips stored on the hard disk to the P2 card.
DVCPRO output provided as a standard configurationData can be output to an external device through the IEEE1394 digital interface. Use a
While operating
The MON OUT connector outputs down converter (analog composite) signals.
Also, output signal from the MON OUT connector can be switched between an HD SDI signal and a VBS signal.
Remote control connectorBy connecting the remote control unit
It is possible to confirm the return video signals (analog
HD Y signals) supplied to the GENLOCK IN connector of the unit in the viewfinder to confirm programs.
Only video signals from the same record format can be confirmed. Note also that the 23.98PsF and 24PsF signals cannot be confirmed. (Refer to page 187)
DC OUT connectorThe DC OUT connector of the unit produces 1.5 A of electrical current.
By connecting an external switch to this connector, it is possible to control recording start/stop.
Since a tally lamp can be used by connecting the LED to this connector, it is useful for shooting video when fixing the camera on a crane. (Refer to page 119)
