Simultaneous Display on High-Brightness, High-Definition LCD and High-Resolution OLED EVF
The AG-CX350 features a new 3.2-type high-definition LCD monitor (approximately 1,620,000 dots). This LCD monitor uses the RGBW (red, green, blue, white) pixel structure to provide high visibility even in bright sunlight. The 3:2 aspect ratio enables the display of timecode and camera status without superimposing on the image. The touch panel function allows convenient touch focus and menu setting. The viewfinder is a high-resolution color OLED (approximately 2,360,000 dots, with an image display area of approximately 1,770,000 dots) that offers superb color reproduction. Since the AG-CX350 newly supports simultaneous LCD and EVF outputs, the LCD monitor can display the captured image at all times even when you look away from the EVF.

Multi-Format, Multi-Codec Recording
HEVC Codec for High-Image-Quality 10-bit 4K/60p Recording at Low Bit Rate
The AG-CX350 is capable of recording in various formats at different compression rates (see “Recording Format”). It can record 4K (UHD) 60p/50p videos in high-image-quality 10-bit on an SD memory card. Using the high-efficiency HEVC codec (H.265, LongGOP, 10-bit, 4:2:0, MOV), free software, such as the VLC Media Player or QuickTime Player, provides smooth playback on a notebook PC or MacBook.*
The AG-CX350 records MOV files that are highly compatible and easy to use. This file format supports long file names with up to 20 characters, allowing recorded video clips to be easily managed. The AG-CX350 also supports conventional AVCHD recording, including the AVCHD 8 Mb/s mode, used widely as the format in college and professional football coaching analysis.
- * Playback may lack smoothness depending on the PC environment, such as storage and memory devices.
P2 MXF File Formats Supported with Proxy and Shot Mark
The AG-CX350 supports the MXF P2 file format for broadcasting. Main recording with AVC-Intra or AVC-LongG codec and sub (proxy) recording with AVC-Proxy G6 codec can be recorded simultaneously. Despite the low bit rate of 12 Mbps or 6 Mbps, the proxy data has the same angle of view and resolution as the main recording, enabling highly immediate breaking news. The sub-recording gamma setting can be set to V-709 if the main recording is set to V-log, and to SDR when the main recording is set to SDR, allowing recording with and without grading in parallel. It also supports the Shot Mark function, which enables thumbnail display, playback, and upload of only the marked clips, just like a P2HD camera recorder for broadcasting.
- * Proxy recording cannot be used during MOV/AVCHD/AVC-LongG12 codec recording, streaming, NDI|HX, VFR, interval recording, simulcast recording, background recording and timestamp recording. Shot Mark cannot be used during MOV/AVCHD codec recording, interval recording and when playback is paused. In simultaneous recording mode, the Shot Mark as last clip is not supported.
Clip Metadata Functions
Clip metadata (cameraperson, location, date, time, text memory, etc.) is added to the clips. In addition to the camera itself, data settings can be transferred from an SD card, the CX ROP app or the cloud. A list of clip metadata can be displayed on the camcorder’s LCD monitor.
10-bit Variable Frame Rate (VFR) without Cropping
* Simulated Image
In UHD, variable frame rate (VFR) recording at 1 fps to 60 fps is possible. In FHD, super-slow can be realized at a maximum of 120 fps. Both provide high-quality 10-bit, full-frame pictures with no image area cropping even at high frame rates.
- * VFR and super slow are supported only in MOV recording mode.
24-bit PCM Audio 4-Channel Recording
The AG-CX350 enables 4-channel recording using the built-in microphone (2-channels) and XLR (2-channels)*1. In MOV or P2 MXF mode, 24-bit linear PCM recording delivers higher sound quality. Other audio features include manual volumes, OSD level meter, 1 kHz test tone output*2 and headphone output (3.5 mm-diameter stereo mini jack).
- *1: When MOV or P2 MXF is selected as the main recording format. In AVC-LongG12 mode, only 16-bit LPCM 4-channel recording is supported. And in AVCHD mode, only 2-channel recording is possible.
- *2: This output is produced when the color bar is displayed. When the 50 Hz system frequency is selected, the output is 997 Hz.
Freeze Frame (Still Image Capture)
When playing back video clips on the AG-CX350, any desired frame can be captured as a still image (JPEG) and recorded onto an SD memory card. Video playback, frame advance (+/-), and still-image captures can all be done intuitively by touch panel operation.
Double Memory Card Slots Improve Recording Reliability
Two SD memory card slots capable of using SDXC/SDHC/microP2 cards*1 enable unlimited*2 relay recording by simply changing SD memory cards. Recording reliability is further improved with simultaneous recording and background recording. And the AG-CX350 is equipped with Pre Rec, Interval Rec and Time Stamp recording functions.
Unlimited Relay Recording*2
