Metadata Recording

Shooter’s name, Reporter’s name, Program name, etc., can be recorded as 
clip metadata. Embedded GPS enables location information recording 
(latitude, longitude, altitude) (available in the future). This metadata makes 
search or classification easier. The metadata can be modified by PC and 
other devices via USB, LAN or Wireless LAN*.

* The AJ-WM30 Wireless Module is required.

High-Quality 24 Bit 4 Channel Audio Recording

The AVC-Intra or AVC-LongG modes support 24 bit digital audio recording* 
(16 bit for DVCPRO HD, DVCPRO 50, DVCPRO and DV). The AJ-PX5000G 
offers 4 channel audio in all recording modes. Each channel input can be 
selected from FRONT (mic), REAR (line) and WL (wireless). The level volume 
also supports 4 channels.

* The audio signal can be played back by using 24 bit digital audio equipment. For details, refer to “Note 
Regarding 24 bit Audio” on page 10.

Four Slots for Simul Rec and Other Recording Tasks

• Hot-Swap Rec:

 Thanks to the two card slots, you can hot-swap P2 cards 

for continuous non-stop recording.

• One-Clip Rec Mode: 

Records up to 99 consecutive cuts as a single clip.  

A text memo is automatically attached to the Rec Start point for easy 
searching for the beginning of the cut.

• Pre Rec:

 This stores approximately 8 seconds of video and audio data in 

memory while in standby mode and lets you recover and use the data from 
the point approximately 8 seconds before you started recording.

• Loop Rec:

 By allocating the open space on two microP2 cards or two P2 

cards, the camera continues to record over that area until the operator 
pushes the stop button.*

• Interval Rec:

 Automatically records intermittently based on a set interval 

and recording time.

• One-Shot Rec: 

A frame-shot recording function useful for producing 

animations.
