Product Description
With six times the detail of standard definition, an ATSC Color System and a widescreen view set up the way our eyes were meant to see…the HD AG-HMC40, at its standard definition price point, is a no brainier! It shoots in four different quality levels including the 21 Mbps PH Mode. Within the PH mode, they can choose six different formats. And its newer MPEG 4 H.264 compression scheme is significantly better than the older MPEG 2 and is so efficient, even the six Mbps HE mode yields beautiful HD quality truly democratizing HD production
i’ve had this camera for about a few months and so far i love it!
i’m use to using the panasonic HVX from our school, and a little bit of the 150, but this camera seems like a perfect way to get the same great look at an affordable price
only one minor problem i’ve noticed, when i have the focus set to manual and i zoom in close on something and focus, then start to zoom out slowly, after zooming out for a second or two, your focus shifts for a split second, but then shifts back when something else is in front of your focused object
not sure what the reason for this is, but that might just be a minor disfunction on my individual camera
besides that, everything else is easy to maneuver and looks just as good as the P2 cards on the HVX
