Dubbed the P2 Gear, the 1.1-pound, battery-operated AG-HPG10 provides viewing, backup recording and file management of P2 recorded content in a single, small portable unit. With two P2 card slots and a 3.5-inch 4:3 LCD monitor, the P2 Gear offers on-the-spot playback and viewing of P2 content in multiple formats (1080i, 720p, 576i and 480i).
The heavy-duty, shock-resistant player is equipped with speakers, easy-to-use controls and professional input/outputs (IEEE 1394, USB 2.0 and HD-SDI) for essential in-the-field functions including: viewing clips recorded on a P2 card or the FOCUS FS-100 portable hard drive, copying files to an external hard drive, outputting a playback signal to a large monitor and backup recording with P2 HD/P2 or tape-based DVCPRO cameras.
To expedite workflow, the P2 Gear can be connected to a Windows PC or Mac and used as P2 card reader for data transfers into nonlinear editing systems. In addition, it can be connected to a PC or MAC for baseband monitoring or integrated with conventional tape-based decks and recorders as a source device without control.
