ULTRA USABILITY Operating Ease and System Expansion Approaching Shoulder-Type Models New Design - Switches Match Like Shoulder-Type Models The AJ-PX270 was designed for easy operation as an ENG camera. It inherits the functions, switch layout and dials of shoulder-type camera recorders. Users of professional shoulder-type camera recorders will be able to take advantage of the mobility of the AJ-PX270 immediately. r'SPOU3FD#VUUPO The front Rec button is positioned immediately below. When a tripod is used, this button allows smooth recording starts after operating the lens. r'SPOU"VEJP-FWFM%JBMT This is the industry's first handheld camera recorder to feature audio input level controls (which can be allocated with ON/ OFF and CH) on the front side of the unit.

Separately Positioned XLR Audio Input Terminals The AJ-PX270 is equipped with 2 channel XLR mic/line audio input terminals supporting a +48 V phantom power supply. They are arranged on the front and rear sides of the unit, just like on a shoulder-type model. The front mic terminal is located behind the rear mic mounting section, eliminating problems resulting from catching protrusions on the side panel. The rear external audio terminals are located on the right side for comfortable holding of the AJ-PX270 against the chest during recording, and also permit easy connection and disconnection while holding the camera recorder in shooting position. Battery Replacement during Recording The large-capacity battery is housed in the main body, and does not extend beyond the rear panel. This ensures comfortable holding of the AJ-PX270 against the chest. When power is supplied to the DC power supply input terminal using the AC adaptor, the battery can be changed while recording. Handle with Multi-Stage Zoom Lever The zoom lever located on the upper part of the handle is also provided with a multi-stage variable zoom function. It provides the same smooth zooming operation from a super-low speed as the zoom lever on the hand grip, allowing smooth zooming when shooting from a low angle or using a tripod. 7 New Design Offering Enhanced Mobility and Easy Operation Even with its high-power zoom lens, the AJ-PX270 is compact and has a low center of gravity. It remains stable during handheld shooting, and provides excellent visibility and a wide field of view. The lens hood with a built-in cover improves convenience and safety while moving.
