System and Interface

Comes Equipped with IEEE 1394, USB 2.0 and HD SDI Interfaces. Allows Remote Control with the AJ-RC10G.

IEEE 1394 Interface

The IEEE 1394-compliant DVCPRO (6-pin) output connector lets

you output all HD/SD compression streams without decoding.*

This means you can connect and use a DVCPRO HD VTR (such as

the AJ-HD1400) or Focus Enhancements FireStore FS-100 for

degradation-free backup recording.

The IEEE 1394 interface also makes it easy to upload data to a

Mac-based or PC-based nonlinear editing system. The AG-HPX502

also provides a host mode that lets you copy P2 files to a hard drive

without using a PC.

* Output is not possible in 720p native mode (24pN 30pN, 25pN).

Compatibility with Nonlinear Editing Systems

DVCPRO HD P2 files recorded by the AG-HPX502 can be used in

nonlinear editing systems made by a variety of manufacturers,

making it possible for you to produce HD content in native DVCPRO

HD. And because the AG-HPX502 uses the same recording format

as the AG-HVX202 or the AJ-HPX2100, the AG-HPX502 is

compatible with nonlinear editing systems that support our other

P2HD cameras.

HD SDI/SD Down-Conversion Output

The AG-HPX502 comes equipped with two BNC video line outputs

for flexible monitoring or line recording use.

• SDI OUT: Switchable between HD-SDI or SD-SDI (down

conversion). HD-SDI output simultaneously backs up recordings to

an external digital VTR (such as the AJ-HD1400) in sync with Rec

start/stop.

• VIDEO OUT: Outputs down-converted SD video (composite).
