Image with HDV
Image with AVCHD (PH mode)
*1: In HE (extended time) mode using a 32 GB SDHC Memory Card.
*2: Data transfer speed varies depending on the usage of SD devices.
The speed given here is the maximum speed according to
Panasonic specifications.
The AG-HMR10 Series features the image-enhancing PH mode that
Panasonic developed exclusively for AVCCAM camcorders. It delivers a
maximum AVCHD bit rate of 24 Mbps (average: 21 Mbps). Designed for
professional image production, this mode handles full-raster HD 1920 x
1080 and 1280 x 720 HD pixels, and lets you record 1080/30p,
1080/25p, and 1080/24p progressive images in addition to 1080/60i and
1080/50i when connected to the AG-HCK10G (optional).
Unlike videotape, there's no need for cueing with the SDHC Memory Card
because recording automatically begins in a blank section of memory. Nor
do you have to worry about accidentally recording over important footage.
You can delete unwanted clips instantly right on the spot to preserve
memory capacity. Editing after shooting is smooth and easy, with no need
for digitizing. The tiny SDHC Memory Card is durable, too. Its operating
range is from -25 ºC to +85 ºC (-13 ºF to +185 ºF), so you can stop
worrying about harsh temperatures or condensation and just concentrate
on your shooting. And of course, you never have to worry about problems
with dropouts or clogged heads.

Waveform Monitor Display
To simplify shot selection, you can add a mark to the thumbnail images of
each clip. You can then display and play only the clips that have shot marks.
•
Shot mark
This helps to ensure you always get the shot you want, by letting you
continuously store, and subsequently record, images and sounds for
3 seconds before the REC button is pressed in standby mode.
* Can be used only when combined with the AG-HCK10G.
•
Pre-REC
Plays back the last 2 seconds of the most recently recorded clip for
quick confirmation.
* Can be used only when combined with the AG-HCK10G.
•
REC CHECK
The image displayed on the LCD monitor can be reversed vertically and
horizontally to check the angle and recorded image.
* Only the image display is reversed. The recorded image remains in its
original orientation. It can be assigned as the User button if desired.
•
LCD REVERSE
The date, camera operator, location, title and other information can be
added to the image data.
•
Meta-data recording
Index flags can be added to any desired points in a clip during recording
or playback. Up to 100 index flags can be added to each clip.
The display can be switched from
waveform monitor (WFM) to vector
scope (VECTOR).
•
INDEX
Only the most recently recorded clip is deleted with this one-touch
function. It can be assigned as a User button function if desired.
•
Last clip delete
Displayed from Z00

A horizontal analysis of the input signal's brightness level can be displayed
on the monitor. This lets you adjust the standard black and white levels
while checking the Waveform Monitor (WFM), making it easy to get highly
accurate adjustments.

TC/UB recording
When the Stop key is pressed during playback, the stop position is
stored in memory. Simply press the Play key to start playing again from
the stop position. This feature is especially appreciated when reviewing
long clips.
* Turning off the power resets the memory. This function is disabled in
the factory default setting.
•
Resume Playback
This function provides repeat clip playback. It is convenient for use in
presentations and demonstrations because playback is seamless, and
there's no need for rewinding. There's also no wear or tear on the
recording media or degradation in the image quality.
* Repeat playback of multiple clips is possible only for clips of the same format.
