Panasonic AG-HMC154 FullHD AVCHD camcorder

The AG-HMC150 is an AVCCAM camcorder released in 2008. The camcorder employs the same imaging section as the AG-HVX200A and the AG-HPX170, and is very similar to these models in terms of physical appearance and functionality. The major difference is recording media (Secure Digital cards versus P2 cards) and encoding format (AVCHD versus DVCPROHD).
Video is recorded to an SDHC memory card in 720p, 1080i and 1080p formats with data rate up to 24 Mbit/s. A supplied 8GB SDHC card holds about 45 minutes of video recorded at highest quality setting. The camcorder can record up to 12 hours continuously, provided that a memory card has sufficient storage space.
The camcorder has different model numbers for different markets:
AG-HMC150/AG-HMC150P is the North American version, which supports only 60 Hz scanning.
AG-HMC151/AG-HMC151E is the European version which is switchable between 50 Hz and 60 Hz scanning rates, thus providing "world" capability out of the box.
AG-HMC152/AG-HMC152EN is the Australian version of the camera that supports only 50 Hz scanning.
AG-HMC153/AG-HMC153MC supports only 50 Hz scanning.
AG-HMC154/AG-HMC154ER supports only 50 Hz scanning.
