Panasonic AJ-HDC27HP

An HD camcorder that offers the stunning quality of 24p HD video together with the flexibility of variable frame rates and colorimetry. This version of Panasonic's well respected camera comes with 12-bit A/D Processing and higher sensitivity CCD's The Varicam shoots at 24-, 30-, and 60-fps as well as single-step increments between 4 and 60 fps. 24p is the traditional film frame rate but the other rates can be achieved in-camera, real-time effects such as "warp-speed" as well as less obvious but useful effects such as increasing (or slowing down!) the speed of action sequences, etc.
