6. Applications and Workflows 6-1 High-End Production of Movies and Commercials Mobility, Easy Operation and High Cost-Performance The mobility of the compact, lightweight AG-HVX200 rivals that of a DV camera for use in high-end production, such as in movies and TV commercials. It allows the kind of active shooting that is difficult with a conventional shoulder-type HD camera, and introduces an entirely new level of video expression. Fitting a host of shooting and recording functions, such as a variable frame rate, into its sleek-looking body, the AG-HVX200 also offers great solutions to many tough shooting situations with its easy operation and high costperformance. Shots that Only a Mobile Handheld Camera Can Achieve Inside a car The AG-HVX200 fits into cramped car spaces where a shoulder-type camera could not. Its short body also allows it to be swung around easily inside the car. Mounted to a car body It is difficult to securely mount a large, shoulder-type camera to the side or hood of a car for action shots. The AG-HVX200 can be easily mounted just about anywhere. On a bicycle or motorcycle The AG-HVX200 lets you capture HD scenes at high speeds on narrow roads and pathways. Needless to say, this would be difficult with a shoulder-type camera. Low-angle shots The action of following or tracking an object in comical scenes for example, can be easily recorded with low-angle handheld shooting. 41
