PANASONIC LAUNCHES A NEW AFFORDABLE HD CAMERA

The Panasonic AG-AC8PJ is a powerful, Full-HD 1080P shoulder-mount camera featuring exceptional ergonomics, functionality and affordable price. It is available this October at $1,450 in your nearest Panasonic camera dealer.


The lightweight but powerful AC8PJ  camcorder is ideal for shooting corporate and events, weddings and documentaries and action packed sporting events, boasting 720p at 8Mbps. The camera weights 5lbs offering less shoulder strain for long shooting periods.

Its wide angle 28mm/F1.8 lens allows the operator to fit more people and background into the frame, especially useful in narrow spaces. A powerful 21X optical/50x super-high resolution zoom permits you to shoot scenes that you can't get close to. Intelligent resolution technology lets you shoot at high zoom rates while preserving the image resolution. With dual SD card slots and the capability to record on both cards simultaneously, the AC8 provides dependable back-up recording or the ability to switch from one card to the other for extended recording times.

The AC8 comes with a powerful zoom lens 21x optical/50x super-high-resolution and a five -access Hybrid O.I.S Image Stabilization technology permitting the operator to shoot crisp scenes that you can't get close to. Intelligent resolution technology lets you shoot at high zoom rates, while preserving the image resolution. Its wide-angle 28mm/F1.8 lens allows you to fit more people and background into the frame, especially useful in narrow spaces and its Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) helps compensate for wide variations in exposure in a contrast-heavy scene, from light to dark. A Focus in Red function shows the sharp edges of your subject in red, making it stand out better.
