AJ-HPX3100
The new AJ-HPX3100 may just change the way you view high-end broadcast camera recorders. Its new body design has a low center of gravity for added stability and gives you an unobstructed view to both sides. It weighs only about 3.9 kg(8.6 lb). Two P2 card slots reside on the side where the main controls are arranged. Boasting excellent mobility and easy operation, the camera section incorporates a 2.2 megapixel 2/3-type 3CCD, a high-performance DSP, and an AVC-Intra Codec LSI.
The AJ-HPX3100 records broadcast-quality HD video with full-pixel (1920 x 1080) resolution using 10bit/4:2:2 sampling. It has a high sensitivity of F11 (60i) or F12 (50i) at 2,000 lx and low noise with a 59 dB S/N ratio to assure the level of recording quality that is demanded for broadcasting and video production. P2 HD functions newly offered by the AJ-HPX3100 include 24 bit audio, high-quality proxy recording, and wireless metadata input capability via wireless LAN. Armed with the reliability and quick recording starts of solid-state memory cards, the AJ-HPX3100 could revolutionize your news gathering and program production workflow.The AJ-HPX3100 has also dramatically reduced power consumption as compared with the conventional model, thus improving mobility and helping to protect the global environment.

AG-HPX372
With a new, advanced 1/3" 2.2-megapixel 3-chip imager featuring Ultra Luminance Technology (U.L.T.), the HPX372 delivers exceptional video performance for master-quality HD production. The shoulder-mount camcorder offers 10-bit, 4:2:2, full 1920 x 1080-resolution AVC-Intra recording with impressive levels of sensitivity and an interchangeable lens. The AVC-Intra codec is unrivaled for its full-raster, 10-bit, 4:2:2 sampling with none of the inherent compromises of 8-bit, long GOP and 4:2:0 recording. The HPX372 provides the ultra reliability of a solid-state design and the faster speed of a file-based workflow.
The HPX372 utilizes a 20-bit digital signal processor and high-resolution 3-MOS imagers, enhanced with U.L.T., which boosts the sensors' performance to rival the image quality and sensitive of ½" imagers. The new U.L.T. sensor results in marked improvements in sensitivity, measured at F10. These high levels of sensitivity and image quality have been achieved with a new high-sensitivity photodiode and low-noise pixel transistor, both based on low-noise analog process technology. The same levels of sensitivity and image production that characterize the interlace mode are now possible in the progressive mode courtesy of Progressive Advanced Processing (P.A.P.), a 3D adaptive processing technology.
With the flexibility of an interchangeable lens, the HPX372 can be used with 1/3" to 2/3" lens adapters for use with existing 2/3" zoom and prime lenses. The camera offers a broad range of creative features including variable frame rates, advanced gamma functions including a new Cine film-like gamma, Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC), built-in scan reverse, Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) function, waveform and vector scope display and focus assist tools. The HPX372 also comes equipped with flash band detection and compensation software built-in for improved CMOS performance.

AG-HMC41
The AG-HMC41 AVCCAM handheld camcorder is a compact, lightweight HD video camera that combines Full-HD AVCHD video recording with high-resolution 10.6-megapixel still photo capture. This combination provides you with the benefits of two professional cameras in one affordable package.
Weighing only 0.98 kg (2.16 lb) as a body only or 1.4 kg (3.08 lb) when fully loaded with an SD memory card, supplied battery, AG-MC200G microphone and AG-MYA30G XLR adaptor, the AG-HMC41E is a versatile HD camcorder offering high-quality AVCHD recordings, high-resolution still photo capture, an easy-to-use SD card workflow, and professional audio capabilities for a wide range of applications and markets including schools, government agencies, event videographers, web designers, photo-journalism and more.
Full HD Video and 10.6-Megapixel Stills - All in One Compact Camera
With a full resolution 3-megapixel, 1/4-inch 3MOS imager, the AG-HMC41E produces stunning 1920x1080 video in AVCHD (MPEG-4 AVC/H.264). When used for digital still photography, the camera captures photos with 10.6-megapixel resolution directly onto the SD card as a JPEG image. The camera can also be connected directly to a PictBridge photo printer (no PC required). And unlike HDV tapes, video and photos can be accessed randomly and immediately from the SD cards and played back on a number of consumer devices. The camcorder's advanced Leica Dicomar lens system offers 12X optical zoom, wide-angle setting (40.8 mm – 35 mm equivalent (video mode)) and an optical image stabilizer (OIS) feature for precise shooting. The compact camera is also packed with professional video and audio features (HDMI out, date/time stamp, remote zoom, XLR option, etc.).
High Definition Performance, Standard Definition Price
Using high-capacity SD memory cards, the AG-HMC41E provides hours of beautiful high definition recordings at professional level bit rates. It records in a range of 1080 and 720 formats with all four professional AVCCAM recording modes: PH mode (average 21 Mbps/Max 24 Mbps), the HA mode (approx.17 Mbps), the HG mode (approx.13 Mbps), HE mode (approx. 6 Mbps). AVCCAM offers the benefit of a fast, file-based workflow using widely available and reasonably priced SD memory cards.
