Panasonic AJ-HDC27V HD Cinema CameraA Variable Frame-Rate Camera for an HD Multi-Media World.![]()
ABC TELEVISION PURCHASES PANASONIC HD CINEMA PRODUCTION SYSTEM Panasonic Broadcast Newsletter, May 4, 2001 ABC Television has purchased the Panasonic HD Cinema production system including the AJ-HDC27A HD Cinema camera, to acquire 720-line, 60-frame progressive scan high definition images, and the AJ-HD150 HD Cinema production VTR, which delivers 724p high definition recording and playback. The AJ-HDC27A camera and AJ-HD150 recorder will be primarily used to capture and edit high-profile programming. ABC Television's investment in 720p HD equipment represents a continuation of the technology relationship that Panasonic has built with ABC. In 1998, the companies collaborated on ABC's HDTV Release Center at its headquarters in New York City, which evolved around Panasonic's AJ-HD2700 switchable D-5 HD recording systems. The following year, the network aired the entire season of "ABC's NFL Monday Night Football" (MNF), including the Super Bowl, in 720p, using an HDTV studio production truck designed and engineered by Panasonic. Preston Davis, ABC Broadcast Operations & Engineering President, said, "Panasonic has been a great partner in the development of progressive scan technologies and we applaud their efforts for continuing to develop HDTV products that support the range of scanning formats." Other models in the Panasonic HD Cinema camera lineup include the AJ-HDC20A 1080i/60 camera and the AJ-HDC27V variable frame rate progressive scan camera -- which won DigitaITV Magazine's "Pick of Show" Award last week at NAB2001.
