A New Handheld Recorder with HD-SDI Input and Output!

The AG-HMR10 is the world's first* compact portable recorder with HD-SDI input and output

It features twice the compression efficiency of MPEG-2 and offers the superb image quality of the AVCHD format. Its PH mode produces outstanding images with a maximum bit rate of 24 Mbps to meet professional needs. Up to 720 minutes of recording is possible onto a highly reliable 32Gb SDHC Memory Card with excellent resistance to vibration, impact, dust and temperature fluctuations. Approximately 180 minutes of data can be recorded in the highest quality PH mode.

The optional AG-HCK10 camera head features a 12x optical zoom lens, Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) and a newly developed 1/4.1-inc, approx. 2-megapixels (Effective image pixels), progressive 3MOS. By connecting the AG-HCK10 to AG-HMR10 compact portable recorder with a cable, the iris, focus and zoom can be remotely controlled from the front panel of the AG-HMR10. The HCK10's small size makes it ideal for use in law enforcement, medicine, education and more; and its compactness allows it to be easily mounted to cranes and other devices to acquire unique angles for TV programming and other types of content creation.
