6. Applications and Workflows
16:9 native mode
You can use the 16:9 aspect ratio for shooting in 480i,
720p, or 1080i format. The 16:9 native CCD in the
AG-HVX200 ensures superb image quality in each.
Low-budget HD nonlinear production
Recording onto the P2 card and using the PC mode of
the AG-HVX200 lets you perform HD editing with the
simple connection of a compatible nonlinear system
(available from Apple, Avid, and Canopus). This allows
you to produce HD content at a low cost that was
previously impossible.
Multi-Format Shots Where Mobility Excels
Car-based shots
The short body and wide field of view of the compact,
lightweight AG-HVX200 make it ideal for shooting
inside cars or mounting to the car body.
On a bicycle or motorcycle
The AG-HVX200 lets you capture scenes at high
speeds on narrow roads and pathways.
Low-angle shots
The action of following or tracking an object, and
comical scenes, can be easily recorded with low-angle
handheld shooting.
Aerial shots from a radio-controlled helicopter
A radio-controlled helicopter can be used to create
low-budget aerial shots, and scenes in places so
narrow that only a toy helicopter can enter. More
expansive images can be taken by using a wide-
conversion lens (available soon from a third-party
vendor).
