The University of Michigan's Wolverines, college football's all-time winningest team, is shooting with Panasonic AG-HPX370 P2 HD camcorders to capture game action and practices for coaching analysis. In addition to four AG-HPX370s, the Big 10 team has also invested in five AG-HMR10 handheld AVCCAM HD recorder/players, an AG-HPX170 P2 a HD handheld camcorder for roaming coverage, and PT-DZ570 WUXGA resolution DLP projectors to display footage in meeting rooms for coaches and players. "Approaching our transition to high-definition, solidstate capture, it was clear to us that P2 was the technology standard bearer, delivering fantastic image quality at a dramatically lower cost than competitive offerings," said Phil Bromley, Senior Media Designer for Michigan football. "The editing process is simple," he added. "We use a XOS Digital software package (Thunder Football z HD), which meshes incredibly well with Panasonic hardware, a big sell on the football customer side." Bromley explained that he teams each HPX370 P2 HD with an HMR10, taking advantage of the AVCCAM recorder's ability to take an HD-SDI feed. The Panasonic P2 HD camcorder with AVCCAM recorder configuration provides the lower data rates of AVCCAM recording and the redundant, higher quality recordings of P2 HD.
