Comes with the box and all panasonic accessories charger, shoulder strap, remote control, cables, software… The aghvx200a offers all the invaluable features of the popular ag-hvx200 and adds a higher-resolution 3-ccd imager and improved image performance.

The hvx200a is equipped with a 1/3 16:9 progressive 3-ccd imager (effective resolution of 1.1 million active pixels with a spatial offset) that delivers outstanding image quality. It offers lower smear and a higher s/n ratio that results in lower noise and better low light performance than the prior model. The hvx200a’s image quality is also enhanced by a new high-performance digital signal processor (dsp) featuring 14-bit a/d conversion and 19-bit inner processing. Equivalent to the processors used in many higher-end hd cameras, this new dsp ensures precise, beautiful recordings in all video formats. Because the hvx200a scans at native 1080p for the initial picture processing, users get the highest level of vertical resolution, whether shooting in hd or sd.

These effects can be dubbed to a dv tape after recording to offer some unique capabilities in the sd mode. Outstanding p2 hd reliability and flexibility, plus dv recording. Offering the vast advantages of p2hd solid-state acquisition as well as a mini dv tape mechanism for shooting in sd, the hvx200a is ideal for transitioning from an older standard definition, tape-based infrastructure to a file-based, high definition production.
