Panasonic AG-HMC40 Shipping This Week

As the headline of AG-HMC40 print ad states, it’s the only two cameras you’ll ever need. The HMC40 handheld AVCCAM camcorder captures awe-inspiring full HD video and 10.6-megapixel stills. This dual-use AVCCAM camcorder maximizes a user’s creative potential and business opportunities by recording on inexpensive SD cards. Featuring full HD resolution imagers, the HMC40 records for up to 12 hours of AVCHD video on a single 32GB SD card, or in its 24Mbps PH mode, up to 3 hours of 1920 x 1080 or 1280 x 720 video, delivering images far superior to HDV. And unlike HDV tapes, SD cards can be randomly accessed and immediately played back on a growing number of affordable consumer playback devices.

The less than 2.2-lbs HMC40 has no moving parts in its solid-state recording system, so you’ll spend less time cleaning heads and more time focusing on your content. And you’ll enjoy a fast, file-based workflow and professional features such as time/date stamp, manual focus, optical image stabilization and a 3-year limited warranty (upon registration on our PASS site).

Blackmagic Design DVI Extender now shipping

AValive is pleased to announce the release of the Blackmagic Design DVI Extender. With DVI Extender and HDLink Pro* or HDLink Optical Fiber*, you can extend and connect your computer displays anywhere in your facility. Or, using any 3 Gb/s SDI router you can connect to more than one monitor.

DVI Extender includes a standard 3.5mm audio mini jack input so you can connect audio from your computer. That means you can get full 3D accelerated graphics and audio from your computer to SDI.

DVI Extender also works as a regular DVI-D to SD/HD-SDI video converter. Harness your computer’s built-in 3D accelerated display to create realtime broadcast graphics in standard definition and high definition video. Simply set the control panel to Video Output and DVI extender will output NTSC, PAL, 720 HD or 1080 HD resolution SDI video with embedded audio from your computer via the audio input jack.

Unlike older scan converters, DVI Extender is a fully digital converter that connects the DVI-D output on your computer to SDI equipment such as HDLink Pro*. That’s a direct pixel-for-pixel digital connection to SDI, which is the highest quality possible and eliminates all scaling problems.

DVI Extender does not need a power supply because it connects directly to any USB port on your computer. That makes it ideal for portable use, because DVI Extender can be powered directly from your laptop...or, you can also use a portable iPod™ USB power supply.

DVI Extender includes USB power, 3.5 mm audio jack input for computer audio, and software control panel for selecting between video and monitor modes. It requires an HDLink Pro* or HDLink Optical Fiber* for monitor mode, however, when in video mode, the SDI output is fully compatible with all SDI video equipment.
