Workflow with P2HD
News Acquisition and Recording
You can configure a basic P2HD recording
system by simply connecting the
AG-HPX500 to a laptop. It connects to a
Windows PC via USB 2.0 or to a Mac via
IEEE 1394. Insert a P2 card in the
AG-HPX500's slot, and you can use the PC
to preview video clips on the card, copy
files, and perform simple editing. Or, you
can plug the P2 card directly into the slot on
your laptop. For a higher-performance
system, combine the AG-HPX500 with the
AJ-HPM100 Mobile Recorder. This system
lets you perform a variety of operations,
such as flexible previews with jog and dial
control, playlist editing, file writing, and HD-
SDI/Analog/IEEE 1394 streaming output.
The AJ-PCS060G P2 store brings new
convenience to many applications. It
provides high-speed copying of video clips
from a P2 card to its internal hard drive, and
initializes the P2 card for immediate re-use.
The P2 store connects and mounts easily to
a non-linear editor via USB 2.0.
Editing and Production
The AJ-PCD20 P2 drive lets you use P2
cards in nonlinear editing systems
manufactured by other companies. Simply
connect the AJ-PCD20 to the system via
IEEE 1394 or USB 2.0. With the P2 card
there's no need for digitizing, so there's no
time wasted.
The AG-HPX500 also adapts to
conventional tape-based HD editing
systems. Its HD-SDI/SDI output allows line
recording or copying using any of a variety
of HD/SD digital VTRs.
Movie Production
The AG-HPX500 integrates smoothly into
systems with DVCPRO HD VTRs like the
VariCam. Because the recording codec in
the AG-HPX500 is the same one used for
both tape and card, it lets you convert, with
no degradation, between media – from card
to tape and from tape to nonlinear editor –
via the IEEE 1394 interface.
