Overview
-
- The Panasonic AG-HMC151 is a camcorder designed to record in high definition on standard SecureDigital (SD) and SHDC memory cards.
-
- While SD-based camcorders have been gaining ground in the consumer market, the AG-HMC150 has the ability to record AVCHD images at significantly higher bitrates.
-
- This enhancement makes the camera more efficient than comparable HD interframe codecs, such as HDV and XDCAM EX.
-
- Using H.264 as its compression algorithm, the camera can record incredibly detailed images at a fraction of the file size.
-
- AVCHD is a variation on interfame codecs such as HDV and XDCAM.
-
- The advantage is that it uses a standard H.264 compression algorithm, making it highly efficient without sacrificing large portions of memory.
-
- Less bandwidth allows the camera to record directly to SD and SDHC media.
-
- The AG-HMC151 will feel much like the acclaimed AG-DVX101, as opposed to its more similar and larger cousin, the AG-HVX200. Reducing weight makes the camera easy to hold; at 4.2 lbs the camera is very comfortable on long shoots
-
- The 13x zoom lens system features 13 lens elements in 10 groups, including three aspherical lenses.
-
- Panasonic has reduced the front lens element from 67mm on the AG-HVX200 to 53.2mm on the AG-HMC151.
-
- The use of low-dispersion glass reduces color aberration while a multi-coating process minimizes flare and ghosting.
-
- Each pixel has a large light-receiving area, giving this advanced 1/3" progressive CCD the kind of high sensitivity not available in previous compact HD cameras.
-
- This advanced CCD combines with a newly developed 14-bit digital signal processor (DSP) to achieve a balance of high resolution and high S/N ratio that rivals even the most sophisticated HD broadcasting cameras.
