Panasonic P2 Series Voice Memo and Shot Marker, Proxy Data Recording, Auto Tracking White Balance

Voice Memo and Shot Marker

If desired, to each clip you can add a simple OK/NG shot marker and a voice memo with an audio comment linked to the time code. You can do this either during or after recording to support post- recording processing.

Proxy Data Recording*

Mount an AJ-YAX800G Proxy Encode Card into the option card slot or 5th slot of the P2 card slots, and the AJ-SPC700 records MPEG4 proxy (low-resolution) data — useful for news flash or other studio news system use — onto the card along with the full-resolution data. You can select either of 1.5Mbps quality, 768kbps quality, or 192kbps quality. Proxy data can also be recorded onto an SD Memory Card mounted in the slot provided, for easy viewing on a laptop PC. The encode card, available as an option, lets you upgrade as future image encode systems evolve.

Customized User Buttons and Menu

Three user buttons are provided. Assign a function to each, and then you can select those functions with pushbutton ease. You can also customize the on-screen menu with the items you use most often, then display them by simply pressing a button.

Auto Tracking White Balance

White balance is automatically adjusted, in real time, as the lighting changes. This makes it easy to get natural colour even when shooting scenes under difficult lighting conditions.

Connects to a PC via USB2.0 or IEEE 1394

The AJ-SPC700 comes equipped with a USB2.0 interface, and you can add an IEEE 1394 interface by mounting the optional AJ-YAD800G board. When the P2 cam is connected to a PC, you can use its card slot as an external device for the PC — ideal for nonlinear editing in the field or transmitting data.
