Panasonic AG-HPX370 High Definition Professional Camcorder 17x Fujinon Lens

The Panasonic AG-HPX370 High Definition Professional Camcorder is engineered for field professionals who demand cinematic detail, reliable workflow, and seamless integration with studio gear. Built around a trio of Ultra Luminance MOS sensors and a Fujinon 17× HD zoom lens, this camcorder delivers broadcast-grade image quality in a compact, ENG-ready package.

Unmistakable image quality in challenging light

Thanks to Ultra Luminance Technology and three 1/3" MOS sensors, the AG-HPX370 captures precise color and low-noise detail even when light is scarce. The Fujinon 17× HD zoom lens (F1.6 at wide) lets you frame dynamic scenes from a distance without sacrificing image brightness, making it ideal for event coverage, documentaries, and fast-paced news environments where there’s little time to set up a lighting rig.

Professional recording you can trust

• Recording format: AVC-Intra HD at 100 Mbps with 4:2:2 color sampling preserves sharp edges and rich color data for post-production grading.
• Resolution and frame rate flexibility: Shoot in 1080i/p, 720p, or 480i/p across a wide 12–60 fps range to suit motion style and delivery requirements.
• Dynamic range and exposure control: Dynamic range stretch and a 3-position gain selector (L/M/H) with up to 24 dB boost help you maintain detail in highlights and shadows across mixed lighting scenarios.
• Recording media: Dual P2 media slots enable rapid card exchange and reliable redundancy to keep shoots moving without interruption.

Seamless integration with the production workflow

HDMI and SD-SDI outputs provide straightforward connections to monitors, switchers, and pro-level recording systems, supporting multi-camera setups and live productions. The HPX370 is built to slot into established broadcast environments and travel-ready shoots alike, offering dependable performance whether you’re in a controlled studio or out on location.

Who benefits most

• Documentary crews and ENG teams needing crisp, true-to-life color in variable light
• Event videographers capturing concerts, conferences, and weddings with minimal post work
• Indie and small production houses requiring broadcast-grade quality with flexible in-camera control
• Studios and mobile productions that rely on reliable media workflows and studio connectivity

Practical tips to maximize every shoot

• Utilize the 4:2:2 color at 100 Mbps for color-critical scenes that will undergo heavy post-processing or color grading.
• Take advantage of the Dual P2 slots for continuous recording: start on one card, then switch to the second to avoid gaps.
• Experiment with gain settings in varying lighting—start with L or M in bright interiors, and step up to H with the 24 dB boost when backlit subjects demand it.
• Leverage HDMI/SDI outputs to feed a director’s monitor or live switch, keeping the on-site team aligned during shoots.

The AG-HPX370 stands out by combining long-zoom versatility, superior low-light performance, robust broadcast-format recording, and a workflow that keeps production moving. If you’re building a camera kit that can handle demanding shoots—from fast ENG days to controlled studio sessions—this camcorder delivers detailed, color-accurate imagery with the reliability and flexibility professionals expect.
