AG-AC90AEN: Overview
Panasonic's AG-AC90A AVCCAM combines the high image
quality, advanced functions and easy operation that professionals
demand in a stylish, easy-to-handle design. It features an F1.5
lens that extends from 29.8mm wide-angle to 12x zoom, and
high-sensitivity, high-image quality (backside illumination type)
3MOS image sensors.
In addition to high-quality professional PS/PH mode (1920 x 1080)
recording, the AG-AC90A supports PM mode (1280 x 720) and
low-bit-rate CS mode (720 x 576) for delivery over a network. When
combined with an Eye-Fi card, it fits right into production
workflows that use networks to transfer data files to PCs and
upload to cloud servers.
Other professional operating features include Triple Manual Rings
(focus, zoom and iris), XLR Microphone/Audio Inputs, and remote
terminals to provide the system capabilities that professional
applications require.
Slide-Retractable LCD Touch Panel
This versatile LCD serves as a high-definition, approx. 1,152,000
dots monitor and menu-setting touch panel. When not in use, it
slides into the handle front for extra mobility and safety.
It also rotates 270 degrees vertically for easy high-angle,
low-angle and self-interview shooting.
Highly Functional Controls
The control panel offers both multifunctional versatility and easy
operation. Frequently used functions have large, distinct buttons
in an easy-to recognize layout. Large audio level dials are also
designed for both safety and operating ease.
Large-Capacity Battery Included
A large-capacity 5,400 mAh battery comes included, to give you
around 6 hours of continuous shooting in PH mode.
Triple Manual Rings
Focus, zoom and iris rings are positioned on the lens barrel. This
enables speedy and intuitive camera work.
XLR Mic/Line Input
The AG-AC90A comes equipped with 2-channel XLR audio input
terminals for external mic or line recording use. It also has a 48
V phantom power supply.
29.8mm wide-Angle Zoom
The zoom lens combines F1.5 (at the widest angle) high spped and
29.8mm (35mm equivalent)wide-angle with high-powered 12x optical
zooming.Nano Surface Coating minimizes ghosts and flaring. |
Features |
29.8mm Wide Angle to 12x Zoom Lens
This high-powered zoom lens can be used in all areas from
news gathering to image production field. It goes from 29.8
mm (35 mm equivalent) wide-angle to 12x zoom. Panasonic's
unique Nano Surface Coating minimizes ghosts and flaring, and the
high-speed F1.5 (at the widest angle) enables extremely clear image
rendering.

|
High-Sensitivity BSI Type 3MOS Sensors
Three (RGB) 1/4.7 type MOS image sensors have an effective pixel
count of 2,680,000 pixels. In addition to high BSI (backside
illumination) sensitivity and excellent 3MOS colour reproduction,
4x dense pixel shifting technology achieves high resolution.
This lets you record high-quality Full-HD (1920x1080) images even
in dim lighting. The image processing circuit, which is tuned for
professional use, produces highly natural gradation and detail.
Three Manual Rings - Zoom, Focus, Iris
The lens barrel is equipped with manual rings for focus, zoom and
iris to enable speedy and intuitive camera work.
5-Axis Hybrid Hand-Shake Correction
The AG-AC90A features 5-Axis Hybrid OIS (Optical Image
Stabilizer/hand-shake correction). This powerful image stabilizer
combines the advantages of both optical and electronic systems to
ensure stable handheld shooting.
|
|
Intelligent Zoom and Digital Zoom
Intelligent Zoom gives you seamless zooming up to 25x magnification
while minimizing decreases in resolution. A 2x/5x/10x Digital Zoom
is also featured.
Combining the optical zoom and Intelligent Zoom, this provides an
ultra-telephoto range up to 250x.
Seven User Buttons
User buttons one to three are hardware buttons, and User buttons
four to seven are touch panel controls. Seven functions out of a
total of twelve (Push AF, Backlight Compensation, Spotlight
Compensation, Black Fade, White Fade, ATW, ATW Lock, Digital Zoom,
Histogram Display, Rec Check, Last Clip Delete, and Menu) can be
allocated to these buttons.
Focus Assist and Push AF
The Focus Assist (Focus in Red) button shows when your subject is
in focus by outlining subject edges in red on the LCD monitor.
Push AF activates the AF function while in Manual mode with the
press of a button (allocated to an User button). This provides
handy support for manual focusing.
