1080/576 25p Shooting Mode
The 1080 and 576 progressive recording systems convert
recordings to 50i in 25p shooting mode. The 25p shooting mode
uses 2:2 pulldown and performs 25p/50i conversion with
minimum image degradation when recording data is uploaded via
an IEEE 1394 interface to a compatible nonlinear editing system.
This lets you maintain superior image quality throughout the
production process.
16:9/4:3 Aspect Ratio Conversion
The 16:9/4:3 Conversion mode can be used with SD-recorded
images or SD output down-converted from HD playback. You can
select from three modes: side crop, letterbox, and squeeze.
Slow, Synchro and High-Speed Shutter
Used with the variable frame rate function, this allows you to
create a blurring effect or crystal-clear stop motion sports action.
The AG-HPX170 series also features a synchro scan function
that’s suitable for capturing screen shots from a computer
monitor.
Shown above is a sample of operation styles.
