New Panasonic AJ-HPX3000GVT 2.2 Million Pixel CCDs and AVC-I team up to deliver Panasonic's first Native 1080p capable and FULL 10 Bit 1920x1080 recording.....This camera includes the AJ-HVF21G 2inch 16:9/4:3 HD Viewfinder and SHAN700 Tripod plate. Includes a 5 year Panasonic Premium EU warranty

Panasonic developed the AJ-HPX3000G with the goal of achieving the industry's best-ever HD recording quality in a one-piece camcorder.
This advanced memory card camera-recorder uses three high-density, 2.2-million-pixel CCDs to produce full-raster, 1920 x 1080 HD images. These high-resolution 1080 images are then recorded using full sampling (10-bit/4:2:2) based on advanced AVC-Intra intra-frame compression technology.
The result is a camera-recorder that approaches stunning D-5 HD-level images. The AJ-HPX3000G backs this performance with a host of features that support high-end program production.
Picture-enhancing technologies include Chromatic Aberration Compensation and multi-gamma settings complete with Film-Rec mode. Its 60/50 Hz switching allows use anywhere in the world, and recording is possible in SD (DVCPRO 50, 480i/576i). It has five slots to accommodate 16GB P2 cards to provide you extended recording time, and HD/SD-SDI input is available as an option.

* Up to 1080/29.97p

Versatile HD Camera-Recorder that delivers high-end image quality for 1080i or 1080p productions

2,200,000-pixel 2/3" CCD for full 1920 x 1080 HD images.
Comes equipped with AVC-Intra codec board that supports AVC-Intra 100 and 50 modes. AVC-Intra 100 uses the same 1920 x 1080 10-bit 4:2:2 sampling as HD-D5 VCRs.
Chromatic Aberration Compensation function compensates for registration error and minimizes lateral chromatic aberration in lenses.
Its Film-Rec mode and a variety of other gamma settings are ideal for filmmaking.
High F10 sensitivity at 2,000 lx (at 1080i).
Minimum illumination of 0.064 lx (at +56dB gain-up).
14-bit A/D processing, 12-pole linear matrix color correction function.
DRS (Dynamic Range Stretcher).
