The Panasonic AG-HVX200 is a handheld HD p2 camcorder recorder that's designed to meet the emerging needs needs in HD content production. The camcorder debuts and remains Panasonic's first HD video product to use P2, the cutting edge memory recording device that has the potential to revolutionize the entire production paradigm.
The AG-HVX200 can record HD, in either 1080i or 720p video acquired by a new optical system and high performance digital signal processor onto a P2 card using the broadcasting DVCPRO HD codec. This very system achieves a level of image quality that conventional handheld HD camcorders simply can't match, while also supporting HD/SD multi-format and multi codec recording capabilities.

The visual frame rate recording is just one of the many features that makes this camcorder so very unique in its class. By using technology that makes the Panasonic VariCam camcorder a favorite in movie production, this powerful function will allow the overcranking techniques used with film camcorders to create fast motion and slow motion effects.
The P2 card offers you superb reliability, immediate playback, and amazing cost performance. It will also allow direct connection to other editing systems and streamlines the production work flow, by providing to the editing system data files ready to be edited, rather than a video tape that would require the tedious task of digitizing.
On top of all the advanced features and technology, the Panasonic AG-HVX200 inherits the refined design and easy operation that separates it from the rest. With the AG-HVX200 HD camcorder, professionals of all kinds will find a powerful tool to help them create and bring their creations to life — helping them achieve things they may have never thought to be possible.
