Large-Capacity SDHC Memory Cards Enable Extended-Time Recording SDHC Memory Cards are available with up to 32 GB of memory (AG-SDV032G). Combined with a maximum data transfer speed of 20 MB/s,* this makes PC data transfers easy and effortless. SDHC Memory Cards also feature excellent durability, with an operating temperature range of −13 degrees to 185 degrees F (−25° to 85°C). Using the high compression efficiency of the AVCHD format, up to 720 minutes** of HD data can be recorded onto a single SDHC Memory Card. Widely marketed consumer SDHC and SD Memory Cards can also be used when needed, to ensure easy availability. * Data transfer speed varies depending on the usage of SD devices. The speed given here is the maximum speed according to Panasonic specifications. ** In HE (extended time) mode using a 32-GB SDHC Memory Card. A Class 4 or higher SDHC or SD Memory Card is required for PH and HA recording. Use a Class 2 or higher SDHC or SD Memory Card for other modes. (Panasonic SDHC Memory Cards are recommended.) Professional PH Mode - High-End Standard for the AVCHD Format The AG-HMC150 features the image-enhancing PH mode that Panasonic developed exclusively for AVCCAM camcorders. Designed for professional image production, this mode lets you record 1080/30p, 1080/24p, 720/60p, 720/30p, or 720/24p progressive images in addition to 1080/60i from the AG-HMC150's 1920 x 1080 full-pixel HD images. The multi-slice feature of the PH mode also helps to speed up processing by nonlinear editors that are equipped with multi-core CPUs, by using parallel processing to take full advantage of the CPU power. Versatile Solid-State Recording Functions • Shot mark: Allows convenient OK and NG marking, and can be added to each clip during or after recording. • Pre-rec: While in standby mode, you can continuously store, and subsequently record, up to 3 seconds. This helps to ensure that you always get the shot you want. • Index: Scenes can be marked with up to 100 index flags per clip. • Rec check: You can check the end of the most recently recorded clip with one-touch ease. • Last clip delete: Only the most recently recorded clip is deleted with this one-touch function, adding practical convenience to everyday operation. It can be assigned as a User button function if desired. • Time stamp: The date and time can be stamped onto recorded images. Commonly used for recording evidentiary depositions and procedures.
