Cameras: Panasonic HVX-200

The HVX200 is well suited to variety of applications because of its wide range of recording formats compact size and superior reliability. P2 card technology is extremely rugged and reliable because there are no moving parts in the camera or media cards. P2 cards also offer the benefits of non-linear media. Users can search the contents of a P2 card through a navigation system on the camera's LCD screen for immediate playback.
Working with P2 cards is also efficient when it comes to post-production because there is no need to digitize the media and the files can be downloaded to a non-linear editing system or edited straight from the P2 card. It is a cost-effective solution to streamline your workflow.
