AVC CAMERA (PANASONIC AG-HMC151)



AVC CAMERA

For our live client projects we need the finished product to come of as professional as possible so to achieve that we will be swapping out the cameras that where used for the Loc/Doc drama and only be using the AVC cameras which is the easy alternative to its real name the Panasonic AG-HMC151.

One of the main advantages this camera has over the others is in can shoot in HD either at 1080p or 720p also instead of using tapes this camera can take an SD Card which means not only can you get more than 60 minutes of footage shot but there is no need to sit and wait for a tape to capture in real time.


Notes
  • Lowest class SD Card is class 4 its recommended to get a class 10 
  • 2 record buttons one on top one on the side one has switch to turn it on
  • Phantom power drains battery
  • SD Card needs re formatting and footage needs backed up by everyone
  • To reformat card on camera go to card functions menu  
  • Can only do playback on setting clip was recorded on 
  • USB input for copying file only and HDMI can be used if needed to plug into a TV
  • Shutter speed goes to 1000
  • Lines on camera monitor show safety crop zones
  • Input 2 down for mono
  • Shutter of means its set to default
