Opening New Paths to Video Production with 4K Quality and Mobility

The AG-DVX200 debuts as the world's rst*1 4/3-type large format camcorder with integrated

zoom lens. Combining digital video technology that Panasonic has developed over its long his-

tory of producing broadcast equipment with its expertise in professional camera recorder, the

AG-DVX200 blazes an entirely new trail in video production.

This new camera recorder captures stunning images with the shallow focus and attractive

Bokeh effect of its 4/3-type large-format sensor, and the latitude made possible by the 12-stop

V-Log L processing inherited. High-speed processing of these high resolution images by a new

4K engine enables high-quality, multi-format (4K/24p, UHD/60p, FHD/60p) recording.

The AG-DVX200 also features a number of high-end functions to meet video production needs,

including Full-HD, 120 fps Variable Frame Rate (VFR) shooting and dual codec recording. And it

integrates a newly developed LEICA DICOMAR 4K 13x zoom lens. High-speed, high-precision

full-auto functions and professional-level manual functions provide operating ease and mobility

that are possible only from a lens-integrated body.

The crimson red coloring and stylish carbon-black textured body form a highly impressive and

innovative design, in response to the artistic sensibility of video creators. This color scheme also

reects the expressive capability of the AG-DVX200's vividly detailed 4K images together with

its superb mobility and intuitively easy operation, supporting the everyday demands of active

professionals.

NEW NEW NEW

Beautiful Bokeh Effects and
4K Resolution

The AG-DVX200 features a 4/3-type, large­format image sensor. It creates highly attractive
Bokeh effects by blending 4K resolution with

shallow depth of eld. It also lets you capture

clear images with minimal noise when shooting
in dimly lit locations.

LEICA DICOMAR 4K Lens

The high-performance LEICA
DICOMAR 4K lens has passed
the stringent quality standards of
Leica Camera AG. A multi-coating process

minimizes ghosts and aring, while the use of

a low-dispersion glass suppresses chromatic
aberration. This results in especially clear
images with very little color bleeding.

GmbH.
* DICOMAR is a registered trademark of Leica Camera AG.
* LEICA DICOMAR products are manufactured using Leica­certified measuring instruments and quality assurance systems
based on rigorous quality standards approved by LEICA
DICOMAR AG.

4K Engine with
High-Speed Processing on a New LSI

The 4K engine, which is mounted on the
AG-DVX200's newly developed LSI, quickly
processes the massive amount of 4K data.
A new noise reduction function also minimizes
noise when shooting dark scenes with
increased gain.

UHD/60p High-Resolution Recording

Recording at a maximum 60p (60 fps) is
possible with UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution.
It produces smooth, high-resolution images
from fast-moving scenes. This is important
due to the recent announcement of UHD

59.94 native acquisition.

Variable Frame Rate HD Recording
at Max. 120 fps

When recording at high Full-HD (1920 x 1080)
resolution, the frame rate can be varied from
2 fps to 120 fps.* Slow-motion images can
be achieved by shooting at up to 12x normal
speed (in 24p mode), and quick-motion images
can be produced by dropping frames.

* When shooting from 2 fps to 96 fps, 28.0mm can be achieved
at the wide-angle end, but this is limited to 35.2mm when
shooting at 100 fps or 120 fps.

12 stops of Latitude from V-Log L

The AG-DVX200 features a V-Log L function
that is equivalent to the V-Log and curve
characteristics provided on the new VariCam
Series. Its 12-stop wide dynamic range
accommodates cinema production work
requiring post-process color gradation.
In addition to this, gamma curves can be
selected from 8 modes, including CINE-LIKE V,
CINE-LIKE D, FILMLIKE 1/2/3, HD and SD.

* The VariCam 35 and VariCam LT V-Log has 14+ stops.

High-Quality 4K (UHD) 10 bit 4:2:2
Image Output

The HDMI output terminal enables camera­through output of 4K (4096 x 2160)/24p and
UHD (3840 x 2160)/30p images. This allows
uncompressed recording of 10 bit 4:2:2 image
quality by external recorders.*

*When HDMI / HD SDI is set to 10 bits, all internal recordings
are disabled.

Infrared Shooting Function

The AG-DVX200 has an integrated, detachable

IR lter. Its IR mode enables it to record 4K

images in the dark. Shooting and recording are
possible in a zero-lux environment, such as
unlighted nightscapes, animals in nature, and
event sites before the lights are turned on.

* An optional IR light is required separately.

Intelligent AF

The AG-DVX200 features a high-speed, high­precision Intelligent AF system. Its new micro­drive focus unit provides the focus lens with

an extremely ne, continuous drive, to quickly

trace your subject's movements. The excellent
focusing speed, tracking performance and
stability of this AF system strongly support the
detailed 4K images and shallow focus.

Advanced Hand-Shake Correction

• Advanced Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS):
The correction area has been dramatically increased
in the newly developed lens. This provides powerful
correction even in unstable shooting situations, such
as low-angle or high-angle shots. The OIS lens drive
mechanism has also been changed to a ball system.
The ball OIS system reduces wear on the drive
section, and greatly improves correction for small­amplitude hand-shake.

• 5-Axis Hybrid Image Stabilizer:*
By using hand-shake correction that combines the
effects of both optical and electronic image stabilization,
hand-shake in various directions, including the rotary
direction, is detected and corrected.

* Cannot be used in 4K/UHD shooting modes.

Multi-Format/Multi-Codec Recording

The MP4/MOV codec provides 4K (4096 x

2160)/24p, UHD (3840 x 2160)/60p, and FHD
(1920 x 1080) high-bit-rate recording, and the
AVCHD codec supports low-bit-rate HD/SD
recording. Being able to select from a variety of
recording modes, each with a different image
quality, frame rate, and bit rate, meets a wide
range of applications, from cinema production
to Internet distribution.
(See below table for more details.)

SD Memory Card U3 Standard for
4K Acquisition

The AG-DVX200 records onto SDHC/SDXC
memory cards. Supporting the UHS Speed
Class 3 for high-speed data transfer, this
enables 4K/24p, UHD/60p, and VFR recording.
Approximately 160 minutes of 4K/24p data can
be recorded onto a 128 GB SD memory card,
or a scene of about 110 minutes of UHD/60p
data. (A 64 GB SD memory card will hold
approximately 80 minutes
of 4K/24p data, or about
55 minutes of UHD/
60p data.)
