Variable Frame Rate: The Panasonic Varicam is the world's first video camera able to simulate the "undercranking" and "overcranking" technique of film cameras to slow down or speed up images. By varying the frame rate from 4 to 60 fps and adjusting the shutter speed from 0.8% to 97.2% of the frame rate, you can create a wide range of cinematic effects. And since the VTR section records at a constant 60 fps, you can edit offline with a conventional DVCPRO HD VTR. This lets you build a powerful 24p production system without a huge investment in equipment.
Film Gamma Selectable: The extremely wide reproductive range of film is the key to its lush expression. Panasonic's new gamma curves -- developed specifically to allow a CCD camera to produce the tonal qualities of film -- now bring film's natural shading and rich coloration to the video camera. The Varicam also lets you switch between video and film gamma modes. Film modes include "Cine Gamma" for film using ARRI laser recorder and "Tele Gamma" for monitor viewing and CRT base film recorders. Select the mode that suits your production. The ISO640-equivalent sensitivity, which surpasses even film cameras, combines with the Varicam's brightness and superior picture quality to produce an essentially "grainless, high-sensitivity film" effect.
The AJ-HDC27F Varicam is like a film camera not only in functions and performance, but in operation as well. The settings you need on the set are conveniently grouped in a single-page menu. Use this menu to select or adjust gamma, scan reverse ON / OFF, hardness / softness, shadow gradation, and latitude. Just as with a film camera, you can also select tungsten or daylight type lighting. Scan Reverse: Peripherals, beginning with lenses, are an essential part of the artist's creative toolbox. Adding the optional lens adapter configures the Varicam for an Ultra Prime film lens. The Varicam is also equipped with the industry's first scan reverse circuit, which cancels image reversal when the adapter is in use. This function, which is easily set from the menu, also accommodates other film camera peripherals such as a slide base and matte boxes.
