Panasonic AJ-P2C016HG 16GB P2 Card

The 16GB P2 solid state memory card offers recording capacity comparable to and often greater than tape and disc-based media, but with no-moving-parts reliability and the benefits of an IT file-based workflow.

Panasonic's P2 card is a PCMCIA compatible plug-in card based on ultra-reliable, solid-state memory, integrating four high-performance SD cards like those now used in digital still cameras, and packaged in a rugged, die-cast frame that weighs only 0.099 lbs (45 grams). This convenient card has four times the capacity and four times the transfer speed of a single SD card. The P2 card is reusable and connects instantly with laptops and major non-linear editing systems to eliminate the time-consuming task of digitizing.

The re-usable P2 card is resistant to impact, vibration, shock, dust and environmental extremes including temperature changes. The 16GB card can also hold up to 40 minutes of recording time in DVCPRO HD at 24pN.

Compatibility:

The AG-HPX500 is compatible with the 16GB P2 card. The AG-HVX200 and AJ-PCD20 with serial numbers beginning with E7xxx0001 or higher, are compatible with the 16GB P2 card.

All other P2 HD and P2 models will require a free, firmware upgrade that can be downloaded and performed by the user, or performed by Panasonic for a fee.
