Multi-Codec Recording of High-Quality 10-bit Images without Cropping New HEVC Codec for High-Image-Quality 10-bit UHD/60p Recording at Low Bit Rate The AG-CX350 is capable of recording in various formats at different compression rates (see the table below). It can record UHD/60p videos in high-image-quality 10-bit on an SD memory card. It also features a new, high-efficiency HEVC codec (LongGOP, 10-bit, 4:2:0, MOV) . When a PC with 7th Generation Intel Core i7 processor is used, the hardware acceleration enables native decoding and playback. Free software, such as VLC Media Player or QuickTime Player, provides smooth playback on a notebook PC or MacBook with Intel Core i7 processor.* * Playback may lack smoothness depending on the PC environment, such as storage and memory devices. MOV/AVCHD/P2 MXF* File Formats Supported The AG-CX350 records MOV files that are highly compatible and easy to use. This file format is the same as that used on Panasonic's compact cinema camera, the AU-EVA1, and supports file names with up to 20 characters, allowing recorded video clips to be easily managed. The AG-CX350 also supports conventional AVCHD recording, including the AVCHD 8 Mb/s mode, used widely as the format in college and professional football coaching analysis. And it will support the MXF P2 file format for broadcasting, enabling AVC-Intra or AVC-LongG HD recording.* * Use a microP2 card for recording in P2 format. 10-bit Variable Frame Rate (VFR) without Cropping Simulated Image In UHD, variable frame rate (VFR) recording at 1 fps to 60 fps is possible. In FHD, super-slow can be realized at a maximum of 120 fps. Both provide high-quality 10-bit, full-frame pictures with no image area cropping even at high frame rates. * VFR and super slow are supported only in MOV recording mode. Freeze Frame (Still Image Capture) When playing back video clips on the AG-CX350, any desired frame can be captured as a still image (JPEG) and recorded onto an SD memory card. Video playback, frame advance (+/-), and still-image captures can all be done intuitively by touch panel operation.

Recording Format
New HEVC Codec for High-Image-Quality
10-bit UHD/60p Recording at Low Bit Rate
The AG-CX350 is capable of recording in various formats at different
compression rates (see the table below). It can record UHD/60p
videos in high-image-quality 10-bit on an SD memory card. It also
features a new, high-efficiency HEVC codec (LongGOP, 10-bit, 4:2:0,
MOV) .
When a PC with 7th Generation
Intel Core i7 processor is used, the
hardware acceleration enables native
decoding and playback. Free software,
such as VLC Media Player or QuickTime
Player, provides smooth playback on a
notebook PC or MacBook with Intel
Core i7 processor.*
* Playback may lack
smoothness depending
on the PC environment,
such as storage and

MOV/AVCHD/P2 MXF* File Formats Supported
The AG-CX350 records MOV files that are highly compatible and
easy to use. This file format is the same as that used on Panasonic’s

In UHD, variable frame rate (VFR) recording at 1 fps to 60 fps is
possible. In FHD, super-slow can be realized at a maximum of 120
fps. Both provide high-quality 10-bit, full-frame pictures with no
