Description:

New Affordable AV-HS300G Switches HD or SD

What if there were a simple, yet high quality Broadcast HD/SD switcher capable of being used by the Microwave, SNG, Small Production Truck and Fly Pack markets that was priced low enough, that the Corporate and low to mid level production markets could afford it? Panasonic's AV-HS300G is it!

Perfect for Live switching such as Music videos, Cable productions and Religious programming, the AV-HS300G fulfills a need in the growing HD/SD Video Production community. Rental Houses will readily benefit from having the AV-HS300G SD or HD Switcher in their arsenal. TV stations transitioning from SD to HD will appreciate the dual format capability. What's more, it provides HD-SDI In and Out and is very reasonably priced.

The AV-HS300G's multi format design is compatible with HD around the globe. Simply choose the broadcast format and you're ready to go; it even runs on 12 volt power, making remote shoots a far less complex experience.

With its unique one-piece design, the AV-HS300G offers enhanced portability and mobility. It can fit into tight spaces like fly packs, production vans and compact remote trucks and it can be used in SDI now and then accommodate HD-SDI when the facility upgrade takes place. In the near future, a two piece Control Panel & Remote Rack Mountable Electronics Frame adapter will be available, reducing the amount of cabling to the operator's space.

The AV-HS300G provides six frame-synching inputs to support non-external gen-locking cameras such as the ground-breaking AG-HVX200. This means you can bring in camera feeds that are not synced and the HS300G will make the timing adjustment for seamless transitions automatically. Additionally, in Frame Sync Mode, two Black Burst Signals are output from the switcher for other devices to reference. External synchronization with Black Burst or Tri-Level Sync is also possible.

  • 6 Inputs: 5 HD-SDI or SD-SDI (with loop through), 1 DVI/RGB
