SD Memory Card Recorder: Lower Operating Costs, Environmentally Friendly

(1) Faster, easier editi ng because digitiz ation is not necess ary
(2) Lower medi a costs because mem ory cards are reus able
(3) Lower main tenance costs bec ause there is no moving

mechanism

By reducing ed iting, media and mai ntenance costs,
AVCCAM can help improve your b ottom line. Users can
also take advanta ge of a special 3-year fre e-repair servi ce
program that Pana sonic offers for AVCCAM equi pment.

SD Memory Ca rd Recording Reduc es Total Cost of Ownership

The SD Memor y Card media for the AVCCAM cam era-recorder i s
totally free fr om abrasion and dro pout. There is no dri ve mechanism
required, as t here is for tape and dis c-based

recorders , so power consumpti on is low and
size and weight ar e reduced. Malfun ctions are less li kely to
occur, and there i s no need to replace he ads or transport
component s. This translates i nto lower costs and eas ier
maintenanc e, greater energy savi ngs, and less waste wh en
the unit is eventu ally disposed of. Al l of these features hel p
to conserve the environment.
