What we think:

Studio camera meets ENG camera with the HPX255. In the field it's a broadcast HD camcorder with a 21x zoom (28mm wide) and 10-bit 4:2:2 recording. Back in the studio it's controlled and monitored centrally at the production desk via a remote terminal. It's the best of both worlds and a real money saver.

Features:

Fully featured 10-bit 100Mb/s tapeless camera
High-Performance Handheld Model
Equipped with HD-SDI output and HDMI output.
Approaching Shoulder-Type system capability
Shares all features of the HPX250 but gains important studio compatibility

Studio Integration

New Remote Terminal for Studio Integration
Remote terminal for the optional AG-EC4G Extension Control Unit.*
Image quality can be adjusted and image acquisition can be controlled while viewing the monitor at a remote location. This handheld unit also supports studio integration.
Genlock input and TC input/output enables multi-camera synchro shooting.

Like the AG-HPX250, the AG-HPX255 P2 Camcorder is broadcast HD approved and fully featured for television production. Importantly, it is compatible with the optional AG-EC4G Extension Control Unit for fast switching to studio mode.

This combines with Genlock input, TC input and output, and HD SDI output to allow multi-camera operation that includes camera control.

Featuring a versatile 22x zoom lens and high-sensitivity/low noise 1/3-type 2.2 megapixel U.L.T. (Ultra Luminance Technology) 3MOS image sensor, it uses an AVC-Intra codec to enable high-quality recording of Full-HD (1920 x 1080), 10 bit, 4:2:2 full sample images.

Together with features such as a variable frame rate (VFR) for slow-motion and quick-motion images, this allows the new AG-HPX255 to offer a level of performance that approaches shoulder-type P2 models, while providing easy operation for image production and broadcasting use.

*The AJ-RC10 Camera Remote Control Unit cannot be used with the AG-HPX255. Camera studio systems using the AG-BS300 Base Station are also not supported.
