High Quality Video Shooting

1.0-type MOS Sensor Mounted (Sensitivity: F9/2000 lx)

The large 1.0-type MOS sensor enables high sensitivity shooting with low noise. The sensor boasts a light-capturing area that is approximately four times larger than that of the 1/2.3-type sensor to guarantee a wide dynamic range.

Optical 20x Zoom / Industry's Best 75.1°Horizontal Wide-Angle Shooting

Adding "i zoom" to our optical 20x zoom, maintains high resolution while enabling ultra-high resolution 32x zoom in HD mode. This enables distant subjects to be captured clearly. Furthermore, 75.1° horizontal wide-angle shooting enables capture of the entire area, even when installation space is limited.

Incredible Pan and Tilt Performance

Pan and tilt operate from a minimum speed of 0.08°/s to a maximum of 180°/s in high-speed mode. This is approximately 3 times the speed of our current product*1 for rapid capture of the intended target. Furthermore, a low noise level of NC35 or less has been ensured when operating in normal mode, which is perfect for shooting in quiet environments*2.

  • *1: Comparison with our current product, AW-HE130W/K (Discontinued model).
  • *2: Quietness, stationary accuracy, etc., in high-speed mode may vary from normal mode.

High-Quality Full-HD 60p/50p Shooting

Full-HD output and 59.94p/50p shooting achieve extremely smooth video, even in live sports and other environments containing rapid movement.

  • *2: It denotes "1080/23.98p over 59.94i".

HDR (HLG) Support

The camera supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) to prevent blown-out highlights and blocked-up shadows and enable picture quality close to that of the naked eye. Conforms to BT.2020.

HDR Mode OFF

  • * The display color space does not completely comply with BT.2020. The color balance is shifted to display according to the BT.2020 color gamut.

Night Mode Support

Equipped with Night Mode for infrared shooting. The use of IR rays in low-light situations enables shooting in situations that would normally be difficult, such as when capturing wildlife (image output is black and white).

* Images are simulated.

Adaptive Matrix Prevents Color Overloaded from Blue LEDs

Equipped with an Adaptive Matrix function that automatically controls matrix calculation coefficients. This enables shooting while preventing color overloaded, even during live events and on stages with strong blue LED lights.

Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) Loaded

Vibrations of the mounted surface caused by doors opening and closing, audio systems and other installed equipment are automatically corrected to ensure stable shooting.

Equipped with a Large Tally Lamp

Easy to see from a distance.

JPEG Image Saving Function Equipped

Up to 100 still images can be captured and saved as JPEG files to the built-in camera memory.

Tally LED Limit

This is a setting that does not turn on the tally lamps of cameras installed on stages at events, especially concert halls and stages and prevents distracting the performers and allows for more natural filming. The tally indicator on the controller lights up so that the cameraperson is aware of which camera's video is being used.

Expandability with Various Interfaces and Protocols

SRT, a next-generation video transmission protocol with strong security suitable for unstable network environments, is supported.

Secure

Strong security is ensured by encrypting video data before transmission.

Reliable

The packet loss recovery function automatically detects and retransmits packets lost during transmission, ensuring smooth, stable video transmission.

Transport

The flexible and adaptable buffer management system enables stable video transmission even in network environments with unstable bit rates. Long-distance video transmission over public lines is supported.

  • * SRT: Secure Reliable Transport.

Video transmission over public lines

NDI | HX Compatibility for Excellent Video Streaming Quality

The AW-HE145W/K can be upgraded to an NDI | HX compatible model if purchasing a license. Highly efficient NDI | HX compatibility enables high-quality video to be encoded and transmitted in real-time and input signals to be directly sent to a switcher (AV-HLC100) without the need for an IP decoder.
After purchasing an NDI®|HX license, the license can be activated using the Activation function of the free software, Media Production Suite.

  • * Contact your local Panasonic reseller for further information.
  • * NDI® is a new protocol developed by NewTek, Inc. that supports IP video production workflow.
  • * NDI® is a registered trademark of NewTek, Inc. in the United States and other countries.
  • * In this instance, NDI®|HX is used to indicate high efficiency low bandwidth NDI®|HX.
What’s NDI® Technology

Direct Broadcast via RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol)

RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol) is supported to enable direct upload of video to live-streaming services such as YouTube Live and Facebook Live. This means a live stream can be broadcast directly from the camera.

Multiple Interfaces Supported

A wide range of outputs are supported: 3G-SDI, HDMI and IP.

AW-RP150 Connection for Large-Scale Production Systems

IP connection from the Remote Camera Controller AW-RP150GJ through a HUB (switching hub) enables control of up to 200 AW-HE145W/K units. Furthermore, a single AW-HE145W/K unit can be controlled from up to 5 AW-RP150GJ units.

Media Production Suite

The Media Production Suite is a software platform that offers a variety of functions for enhanced video quality and increased operational efficiency. By centralizing the management and monitoring of Panasonic cameras, it facilitates the streamlining of setup, management, and control – even in dynamic shooting environments such as online lectures, webinars, academic conferences, and live events. Additionally, with plug-ins available for an additional fee, the Media Production Suite provides numerous functions for operational support, enabling high-quality productions to be achieved with minimal crew.

Previous PTZ camera software (EasyIP Setup Tool Plus, PTZ Control Center, and Auto Tracking Software) have been integrated into the Media Production Suite.

Various Workflow

Controlled by WEB UI

Camera IP image output, settings and control can be performed using a web browser on a computer connected via an IP network. In addition to PCs and Macs, iPads, iPhones*, Androids and other mobile devices can be used for operation, and this pursuit of easy-to-use interfaces has enabled smooth camera control from remote locations.
