The Panasonic AG-AC90 AVCCAM Handheld Camcorder features 1/4.7"
3MOS sensors, with 2.19MP each, to capture Full HD 1920x1080 resolution
video. Variable frame rates record HD video at 60p, 60i, 30p, and 24p.
The camera's fixed lens has a 12x zoom ratio, up to f/1.5 brightness, a
35mm equivalent of 29.8-357.6mm and manual control rings for focus, zoom
and iris. In addition, Nano Surface Coating works to reduce ghosting
and flare.
The AG-AC90 has two SD card slots for expanded memory or simultaneous
recording to both cards for an instant back-up. A five-axis image
stabilizer improves stabilization for handheld shooting, and 4x pixel
shifting technology helps to create a sharper image. An Intelligent 25x
digital zoom function makes automatic adjustments of edge, gradation and
detail.
Professional AVCCAM HD recording modes include PS mode, which records
1080/60p at 28 Mbps. Additionally, PH mode averages 21-24 Mbps, and HA
mode clocks in at approximately 17 Mbps. Finally, for extended recording
times, HE mode uses approximately 6 Mbps. The AG-AC90 is compatible
with Panasonic's ultra high-speed UHS-1 series of memory cards, as well
as SDXC and SDHC cards.
In addition to the built-in microphone, two XLR audio inputs provide an
interface for professional grade, external microphones. Audio Channel 1
and Channel 2 feature individual level controls and input selection.
