About the Panasonic AJ-HPD2500

The Panasonic AJ-HPD2500 P2 HD Memory Card Recorder/Player is a multi-format recording and playback system designed for facilitating P2 and file-based workflows. With its ability to record in AVC-Intra 100/50, DVCPRO HD and DVCPRO 50/DV, the AJ-HPD2500 offers support for the most common 1080, 720 and SD frame rates, including 1080/24PsF. Its AVC-Intra codec records high-quality 10-bit 4:2:2 video and 24-bit digital audio, which is captured to any of the unit's six P2 card slots and can be output via HD-SDI.

The unit's 4.3" LCD display and comprehensive editing control panel combine with a range of digital and analog connections and a 4RU size to make it fit easily into existing post-production infrastructures, such as mobile truck, broadcast studio and production facilities. Along with HD/SD-SDI, composite and XLR audio input/output, connections include eSATA, USB and Gig-bit Ethernet - giving the AJ-HPD2500 the ability to bridge file-based systems with baseband video workflows, while at the same time permitting high-speed playing and copying of full-frame-rate content. This sophisticated device is the perfect solid-state solution for such applications as line/studio recording, editing, synchronizing dailies, or transmitting and archiving.

Panasonic AJ-HPD2500 Features

  • AVC-Intra Codec: The AVC-Intra codec complies with the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 international standard based on advanced image compression technology and offers both superb image quality and highly efficient compression
  • Up-/Down-/Cross-Conversion: The AJ-HPD2500 can convert up or down between HD and SD or cross-convert between 720p and 1080i during playback
  • 24PsF Compatible, HD/SD Multi-Format: Supporting a wide range of HD formats, such as 1080p, 1080i and 720p, the AJ-HPD2500 can be switched between 59.94Hz and 50Hz to adapt to the world's HD broadcasting formats
  • VariCam Speed Effects: The AJ-HPD2500 can extract active frames from VFR (variable frame rate) signals output by a VariCam and record them in 720/24p (30p/25p)
  • 16 Bit/48 kHz/8 Channel, High-Quality Digital Audio: The AJ-HPD2500 can record and play back high-quality, 16-bit/48kHz digital audio. It comes with 8-channel AES/EBU digital audio input and output (BNC) terminals
  • Advanced Recording Functions Employing Six Card Slots: The P2 card offers a large capacity of up to 64GB in a small, lightweight package. Its rugged design withstands even harsh professional use
  • Text Memo: When recording or previewing a clip, you can attach a memo (similar to a bookmark) at a desired location (up to 100 locations on a frame basis)
  • Shot Marker: During or after recording, you can mark each clip with OK, NG or another designation
  • Clip Metadata: This function lets you browse and edit metadata, such as the name of the camera operator and reporter, shooting location and text memos
  • Clip Thumbnail Display with Free Clip Sequencing: The clip thumbnail (image list) display and GUI (graphical user interface) have been completely revamped. You can now select clips for instant playback, deletion, copying or resequencing
  • Edit Control Panel with Jog/Shuttle Dial: Like a broadcast editor, the AJ-HPD2500 is equipped with a jog and shuttle dial. You can shuttle search at up to 100x normal speed in forward or reverse and jog search within a range of -1x to +1x speed
  • Playlist Editor GUI for Intuitive Operation: The playlist function lets you instantly edit up to 100 events or a timeline of up to 24 hours. Operating ease and functions have both been enhanced
  • One-Clip Playback & GUI Hold for Easy Manual Data Transmission: The AJ-HPD2500 P2 Deck features easy manual transmission by itself
  • Direct Capture from an External VTR: It lets you set IN and OUT points on the player-side preview screen by controlling an external VTR connected via an RS-422A interface and register or capture (digitization and clip creation) video footage directly onto the editing timeline
  • eSATA/USB 2.0 Interface for an External HDD (High-Speed Backup/Restore): Data can be backed up or restored on an eSATA hard disk at up to 4x1 normal speed. USB 2.0 transfer speed has also been approximately at up to 2x previous model
  • Waveform or Vectorscope Display: The AJ-HPD2500 has waveform and vectorscope display functions for the playback or input video signal on the LCD monitor
  • Versatile Playback Functions Meet Diverse Needs: Format Auto Playback: This automatically detects the video format and codec for each video clip to play back and output
