The AG-DV2500 is a no-nonsense DV edit deck, perfect for almost any modern digital edit studio. The machine will accept any size DV cassette including Panasonic's AY-DV276MQ Master tape with over 4 1/2 hours of recording time.
Panasonic asserts that the AG-DV2500 will playback professional DVCAM recorded tapes. Now you won't have to buy or rent expensive equipment to integrate DVCAM source material to your project for editing.
Both NTSC and PAL signals can be played back. This makes it easy to work with international material and transfer to a non-linear editing system for editing.
The AG-DV2500 can be linked to the recording start/stop operation of the Panasonic AG-DVX100 camcorder for back-up or dub recording. The deck can automatically start recording 5 minutes before the end of the camera's tape for extended recording times. The deck may also be used as the sole recorder in liu of the camera's recorder.
