The Panasonic AJ-PG50 is a portable P2 memory recorder, that has two microP2 slots or one full-size P2 card slot. It supports AVC Ultra, AVC Intra 100/50, AVC Long G, and DVCPRO HD/50/DV codecs. This can be powered by power supply or VW-VBD58 style battery pack (not included). Supports 60P (59.94), 50P, 59.94i (60i), and 50i. Does not support 24P or 25P.

Video can be played back on the built-in 3.5" LCD, which has waveform/vectorscope, thumbnail, 4:3 marker, and menu structure. Additional features include: simultaneous redundant recording, dual codec record (proxy), automatic record, loop record, shoter marker, metadata to SD memory card, copying between P2 and micro P2, downconversion, video streaming over wired or wireless LAN (with AJ-WM30 module added), 6 assignable buttons, and many more powerful features.

The Panasonic DVD-RP82 is a DVD player that plays DVD-Audio, DVD-Video, DVD-RAM, DVD-R, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3- and WMA-encoded CDs. Quick Replay jumps 10 seconds for easy recaps. Progressive-scan video output. Dolby Digital and DTS surround-sound decoding with 6 analog-audio outputs and an optical digital-audio output. Variable zoom converts widescreen images to full-screen on 4:3 TVs. Outputs include component video, composite, s-video, surround 5.1, coaxial, optical.

But what really makes this special is it has had a professional SDI mod installed. This modification upgrades this to have a SMPTE 259M serial digital interface. The modded SDI connection bypasses the D/A and A/D stages and sends a digital 480i & 576i signal directly into your video processor. The result is a much more detailed picture with richer colors and NO video noise.
