Panasonic P2 HD-AG-HPX250 - Camcorder - High Definition - 2.2 Mpix - 22 x optical zoom - P2 CardItem#: YYS1-3044379  |  Model#: AGHPX250PJ

The high-performance AG-HPX250 P2 handheld's 22x zoom lens covers a wide shooting range, from wide-angle to telephoto, and features three manual rings for precise control. Imaging is optimized by the high-sensitivity, low-noise 1/3-type 2.2-megapixel U.L.T. (Ultra Luminance Technology) 3MOS image sensor. And the AG-HPX250 is the first handheld model to support AVC-Intra codecs. This combination produces a level of performance that rivals many full-size shoulder-type camera recorders, and adds the high-quality acquisition of Full-HD (1920 x 1080) and 10-bit, 4:2:2 full sample, broadcast-level images. Image expression is also boosted by the Variable Frame Rate (VFR) function, and system expansion for broadcasting and other production applications is provided by multi-camera synchronizing. The stylish design of the AG-HPX250 adds further to both mobility and operating ease, and opens a new stage for news gathering and image acquisition.
