Hvx-200a/202a
Hi guys I've just come back from panasonic training session and this is what I got told by the reps.
The HVX-200A/202A will be released at NAB and will include AVC-Intra as recording option. This will be a real competitor against the EX-1 as the recording time will be upped to almost doubled than regular DVC-Pro HD recordings.

What's the difference between the 200a and 202a?
Edit: Nevermind, the 202a is the European model..

The April 14, 2008 issue of "TV Technology" magazine contains a Panasonic P2 HD insert. The HVX200 is listed as the HVX200A. The description is: "This remarkable camcorder features all the fabulous features and benefits of the HVX200, plus improved progressive 3-CCD imagers and a DSP that increases sensitivity, while lowering noise and smear. A new 13X zoom lens provides a wide 30mm viewing angle ..." The insert also shows the AG-HPX170 Fully Solid State, 1/3" 3-CCD Handheld Camcorder. The description is: "This smaller, more powerful, go anywhere DVCPRO HD camcorder offers a wide angle Leica Dicomar lens, two P2 slots for continuous recording, HD-SDI and IEEE 1394 interfaces, NTSC/PAL switchable, a time/date stamp function, and more variable frame rates than prior P2 HD handhelds. It comes with our 5-year limited warranty." |

NAB is less than 24 hours away so in short order we'll find out what's real or not however, I've seen what is purported to be a PDF brochure on the 200A and there's no mention of AVC-Intra (not surprising because there's no room in the HVX for the board) and there's also a list of things they *didn't* do to the HVX - such as no upgraded LCD/viewfinder.
If the brochure is real - and the proof will come out tomorrow - then many will be disappointed with the "A" version. Better, to be sure than the original but not the makeover we had all hoped for. |

Well said Robert. I'm attending the Panasonic NAB press conference today here in Las Vegas; we'll all know what is what within the next few hours.

Well, looks like the AG-HPX170 is real.
"Looks like a new HVX. Weighs only 4.2 pounds -- MUCH lighter! Wider-angle lens, 3.9mm to 51mm. 1080P-capable camcorder, new advanced 1/3" 16:9 CCDs, high-performance DSP, 14-bit processing. 20 HD & SD formats, 16:9 and 4:3, time-date stamp function for legal deposition. 20 variable frame rates. Two P2 slots. Available in the fall, covered by 5-year warranty. HD-SDI output." Barry Green |
