System Interfaces

Compatible with Mac and Windows Nonlinear Editing

With its IEEE 1394 (4-pin) and USB 2.0 interfaces, the

AG-HVX200A connects directly to Mac and PC.*

The IEEE 1394 port supports SBP2 (Serial Bus Protocol 2) and allows

direct connection to a Mac, making it easy to transfer P2 files for use

with FinalCutPro nonlinear editing software. When you've recorded on

mini DV tape, the AG-HVX200A can stream to a conventional DV-

compatible nonlinear editing system.

The USB 2.0 interface lets you transfer P2 files to a Windows PC for

use with a nonlinear editing system (Adobe, Avid, Grass Valley or

Matrox products). These two interfaces provide you the best

performance for Mac and Windows nonlinear editing systems.*

External Recording with IEEE 1394 Streaming

The IEEE 1394 interface can be used

to control an external device synched

with the camera's Start/Stop

operation, making it easy to create

backup recordings. For DVCPRO HD

recording,compatible device is the

AJ-HD1400. Also when used in

combination with the Firestore Drive,

the FS-100 or the P2 Gear,

the AG-HPG10, the time for

recording can be extended by virtue

of the additional cards or the size of

the HDD in the Firestore. Note that

the Firestore can take the full 720P/24 over 60 frames signal out of the

1394 connection and record in the 24PN mode, giving you over 4.5

hours of recording time on the FS-100-160.

Transferring Files to an External HDD

The AG-HVX200A offers a host function. Insert a P2 card in the card

slot, and data can be transferred to an external Hard Disk Drive

(AC Power Supply needed) via the IEEE 1394 port.

Analog Component Signal Output

The AG-HVX200A is equipped with analog component signal (Y, P

) terminals for outputting 1080i, 720p and 480i (each 59.94 Hz)

camera video signals. This lets you preview recorded clips on an

ordinary HD/SD TV monitor.

16:9 Squeeze and Letterbox Modes

The AG-HVX200A can record in SD with a 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio.

When 16:9 is selected, the AG-HVX200A can record in native 16:9

recording or can be switched to a letterboxed 4:3 image.

*1: The PC must have the P2 Driver installed in order to mount the P2 Cards. For editing, the PC must have P2 Compatible editing software installed.

Read "Notes Regarding the Handling of P2 Files Using a PC" on the back page.

TC Set and User File Copy with Multi-Cameras

Connecting two AG-HVX200A cameras with a IEEE 1394 cable allows

the second camera to synchronize with the first camera which enables

time-code-matched editing with multiple cameras. This cable does

not need to stay connected. The built-in SMPTE time-code

generator/reader lets you select the Drop Frame/Non-Drop Frame

and Free Run/Rec Run modes, preset and regenerate*. User bits are

also provided.

User files (with sets of camera settings) can be transferred to an SD

Memory Card and shared with other cameras. This makes multiple

camera set-ups fast and easy. Scene Files and Operational files are

separated so that if only the "look" is desired that can be used vs, all

of the camera's operational settings which would include everything

from Viewfinder Display to Recording Format.

* Regenerate — available in tape mode.

Compatibility with Nonlinear Editing Systems

In developing DVCPRO and P2 products, Panasonic has been

working in collaboration with a number of strategic P2 Partners.

The results are products that offer maximum compatibility with

existing hardware and software, including IT-based system platforms

and nonlinear editors and network servers.

Adobe, Apple, Avid, Grass Valley, Matrox and MainConcept have

announced support of the DVCPRO HD P2 file recorded by the

AG-HVX200A. Using nonlinear editing systems from these three

leading companies, you can produce High Definition video from native

DVCPRO HD files.*
