The AG-DVX200PJ is the first in a new generation of large sensor, multi-format Professional camcorders capable of capturing 4K/UHD, HD and SD, including cinematic DCI 4K 4096x2160. Designed from the ground up as a large format camera system, the DVX200 provides that all important esthetic of shallow depth of field / selective focus, but with an integrated 13X zoom for easy control over image framing as well as the ability to track your subject even in fast action. The DVX200 works “out of the box” with integrated lens, viewfinder and included battery (just add optional UHS-2/3SDXC cards). This large format 4/3” camcorder offers exceptional image quality in all modes, as well as unique workflow options – including a dual codec workflow borrowed from the renowned VariCam 35 production camera. Whether for cinematic or television production, sports, news acquisition or event acquisition, the DVX200 offers the perfect blend of quality, convenience and workflow.
VIDEO FORMATS
The AG-DVX200 captures high quality video in cinematic DCI 4K 4096x2160 at 24p, UHD 4K 3840x2160 (60p / 30p / 24p), FHD (including 120fps and 24p), as well as SD. The DVX200 has a place in cinema style and reality TV 24p production, allowing Variable Frame Rate and higher speeds for special effects, and a native 60 frames per second record mode to satisfy the recent demand of 60p UHD television production. When used in HD, its 120fps high speed capability is ideal for slow motion capture of sports or dramatic action sequences.
VIDEO QUALITY
Image quality in all formats is exceptional. The large format 4/3” imager features advanced color separation filter technology to provide natural, yet accurate colors, especially skin tones. Another VariCam technology incorporated in the AG-DVX200 is V-Log, a wide dynamic range, low contrast “gamma” mode that faithfully maintains all 12 stops of the imager’s scene content. The DVX200’s V-LogL tonal curve matches that of the VariCam35 V-Log curve, permitting easy mixing and grading of VariCam and DVX200 in post, so the DVX200 can be used as a “crash cam” on a VariCam shoot.
RECORDING
Recording is made to affordable, high speed SDXC cards, (UHS-2/3). Recording formats to choose from include MP4 / MOV for UHD / 4K, high bit rate I frame H.264 (MOV) for FHD, or AVCHD for HD / SD.
