Panasonic AJ-HPX2100, Brochure & Specs

USB 2.0 Interface Compatible with Host Mode

In device mode, the P2 cam's card slot can be used to connect a PC as an
external device for nonlinear editing and transmission over networks. In host
mode, P2 files can be copied onto a hard disk without using a PC.

Digital Backup Recording (HD-SDI/IEEE 1394)

The AJ-HPX2100's standard HD-SDI output simultaneously backs up recordings
to an external digital VTR (such as the AJ-HD1400) in sync with the REC
start/stop. An IEEE 1394 compliant DVCPRO output terminal (6-pin) is also
provided on the AJ-HPX2100. The AJ-HPX2100 can output DVCPRO HD/
DVCPRO data without decoding for backup recording with minimum
degradation to a digital device like the FS-100 FireStore manufactured by
FOCUS. It also enables desktop HD editing when connected to a PC/Mac
nonlinear editing system.
The AJ-HPX2100's HD-SDI and IEEE 1394 digital output capabilities allow the
use of a wide variety of broadcasting and IT-based devices.

HD SDI/SD Down-Conversion Output

The AJ-HPX2100 comes equipped with two BNC video line outputs for flexible
monitoring or line recording use.
•VIDEO OUT: Switchable between HD-SDI/SD-SDI (down conversion) and
analogue composite (down conversion) output.
•MON OUT: Outputs down-converted SD video only. Switchable to analogue
composite (thumbnail output possible), VF or Y.

Proxy Data Recording (Option)

Mount an AJ-YAX800G Video Encode Card, and the AJ-HPX2100 records an
MPEG4 proxy (low-resolution) data — enhancing news production and
simplifying long format program editing, including documentaries and reality
television — onto the card along with full-resolution data. The three levels of
proxy video available are 1.5 Mbps, 768 kbps and 196 kbps. 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.

*Proxy data is AV data with low-resolution MPEG4 video and audio containing time code,
metadata, and other control information.

*Use of DCF technologies under license from Multi-Format, Inc. 

HD/SD SDI Line Recording (Option)

When the HD/SD SDI input board (AJ-YA350G, purchased separately) is
installed, HD/SD line recording is possible from SDI (serial digital) input. This is
extremely useful in Broadcast applications, including news pool feeds
acquisition.

*The input signal must be in the same format as the recording format of the camera-recorder.

New Remote Control Unit

The AJ-HPX2100 comes equipped with a 10-pin RCU terminal for connecting
the optional AJ-RC10G Remote Control Unit. 
The AJ-RC10G comes with a 10-pin multi-cable that can connect to 
the AJ-HPX2100's down-conversion video OUT terminal for monitoring at the
RCU. The AJ-RC10G provides detailed control of the AJ-HPX2100's camera and
recorder functions.
