#Panasonic p2 card case series#
Available in 16, 32 And 64GB, the F series cards supports all currently available codecs from existing P2 cameras And recorders, as well as AVC-Intra Class 200 of the AVC ULTRA family *1. The only reason not to do so is money, and thinking about money in that "screw the user" way that Sony might as well patent at this point (Panny, really, you can do better).The F series P2 cards are durable, reliable And use high-quality solid-state memory made of die-cast aluminum construction with impact-proof connectors. The proper solution to this "problem" is to sell your proprietary magic crap in a little sleeve that ears real, standard, commodity memory cards. Hey let's create a storage device that absolutely cannot be analyzed by an external device in a useful way in case of failure! Awesome! Ever talked to someone who bought one of those stupid "external hard drive" toys from companies that make pretty boxes, like LaCie, only to find out later (after a failure) that it contained a random dirt cheap proprietary and unsupportable RAID controller inside it? Yeah.

Let me say that again, NIGHTMARISHLY BAD. If anyone's ever worked with data for a living, they know that the idea of capturing the controller for a RAID inside the storage device itself is a nightmarishly bad idea. What do you think about the microP2? Will the new smaller design help or hinder your production process? And will that even matter if it's as fast as it says it is? However, it remains to be seen which cameras will make the cut and be able to use the microP2 (Please say HVX200 - she's ancient, but I love her). I guess now I don't have to sit down and start making serious life choices every time I want to buy another P2 card. The microP2 cards seem reliable, durable, fast, and less expensive than their (literally) big brother. How much are these little micros and their accessories going to cost? Well, here are the suggested list prices: Panasonic has also announced two new products with built-in microP2 slots: the AJ-PX5000 P2 HD camcorder and the AJ-PD500 half-rack recorder. However, it may not work with some of the earlier models. Now, as far as backwards compatibility, Mike Bergeron from Panasonic says that for many of the later cameras (he mentions the HPX250) will be able to use the new cards with the adapter.
#Panasonic p2 card case upgrade#
A firmware upgrade - if you're using current P2 hardware - is needed in order to use the card adapter. The microP2 drive has a USB 3.0 interface for faster transfer speeds.

With an SD card form factor, the MicroP2 cards will ensure high-speed transfer, high reliability and the writing assurance of all P2 frame rates, formats and codecs. Furthering the versatility of the microP2 card adapter and microP2 card slots, their design allows Class 10 SDHC/SDXC cards (at bit rates only up to 50Mbps)to be used in P2 products.Īccording to Panasonic, "the microP2 card's double-layered UHS-II interface fascilitates transfer speeds of 2.0 Gpbs (1.7 times faster than standard P2 media, and 12x faster than ordinary SD media)." Not only that, but Panasonic's partnership with cloud video production platform, Aframe, resulted in Panasonic's Production Network (PPN), which allows professionals to upload and view high-quality video from the cloud server. Here's an excerpt from Wednesday's press release:
#Panasonic p2 card case code#
It has a flash memory error correction system, a Lifetime Counter, a Content Protection System that password-protects the card, and a QR code for scanning and identification.

The microP2 is durable, able to resist water, dust, static electricity, bending and twisting, magnets, X-rays, wide temperature ranges, and has a safety built-in-fuse.
