The Panasonic P2HD Series continues to lead the way toward file-based broadcasting and image production applications using the P2 card. In addition to offering levels of reliability, speed and rewrite performance that could only be possible with solid-state memory, P2HD Series models achieve superb images and extended recording with the advanced AVC-Intra codec.*2 Using P2 files in a variety of IT devices allows a consistent, file-based workflow — from high-speed transfer to editing, searching and archiving. The P2HD Series also helps to conserve the environment in ways that a memory-card recorder can do, because it requires no transport mechanism, has low power consumption, and enables repeated reuse of P2 card.
In these and many other ways, the versatility and advanced design of the P2HD Series open the door to the next stage of P2 progress. The new AVC-ULTRA Codec family starts with the AVC-Intra100 and AVC-Intra50, and welcomes the new AVC-Intra444,*3 with its remarkable Full-HD 4:4:4 images and next-generation 4K x 2K resolution, and the AVC-LongG,*4 for highly efficient, Full-HD image production with excellent cost-performance.
The AVC-Proxy also joins the family with advanced image quality made possible by H.264 compression, while operating at a low bit rate for Internet use.
