AJ-HPX2100 integrates a camera unit equipped with three CCDs, incorporating a 2/3-inch on-chip lens featuring
progressive drive technology (All-pixel reading), and a video recorder/player (VTR) that supports DVCPRO HD,
DVCPRO50, DVCPRO and DV formats.
AJ-HPX2100 offers choices of 1080i/720p mode for HD and NTSC/PAL mode for SD. It also provides features such as
storage-type gain enhancement for news reports and film-like gammas for production purposes, providing many
applications ranging from news reports to production.
Utilising P2 cards, which require no mechanism, as media, your unit offers greater responsibility, operability, and
portability. It is highly resistant to shock and vibration during recording, and therefore ensures stable operation for
capturing quality video images under the most adverse conditions.
_
Multi-format
The unit supports the following video systems by
driving the CCD progressively. (Refer to page 36)
_
14-bit A/D conversion digital signal processing
Analog video signals are processed into digital data by
a 14-bit A/D converter with sampling frequencies of 74
MHz. It is possible to reproduce images that are more
finely detailed.
_
Storage type high-sensitivity function (DS. GAIN)
The unit uses the storage type gain increase function
by driving the CCD progressively. With this function, it
is possible to obtain brighter pictures without
increasing noise under low light conditions.
This is a function that makes it possible to achieve
higher sensitivity of up to 20 dB above the regular gain
increase. Furthermore, this function can also be used
as picture effects.
_
Digital Zoom
The camera unit features progressive digital zoom.
This is particularly effective when you want to zoom-in
closer on the subject.
_
DRS (Dynamic Range Stretcher) function
The dynamic range can be streched by compressing
the video signal level of a part with high brightness
where white-color-skipping phenomena occur during
ordinary shooting. (Refer to page 44)
_
Film-like Gamma function
The unit employs three types of film-like gamma to
easily obtain film tones accumulated through Varicam
(AJ-HDC27 series), so that a wide range of image
impressions can be reproduced for production. (Refer
to page 152)
_
Lens file function
The unit has 8 lens files.
By using an SD memory card, 64 lens files can be
stored. (Refer to page 83)
_
Focus assist function
The unit will display a marker to help with focusing
when shooting videos. This function provides a visual
cue for focusing. (Refer to page 44)
Attention
