Panasonic AG-CX370 UHD 4K Pro Camcorder Overview
Built for Next-Generation Performance, Production, Broadcasting, and Live Streaming
The Panasonic AG-CX370 UHD 4K Pro Camcorder is a high-end handheld camcorder designed to meet the demands of modern video production. Building on the acclaimed performance and usability of its predecessor, the AG-CX350, this camcorder features 10-bit 4K recording, a wide-angle high-magnification zoom lens, and HDR-compatible V-Log/HLG, along with manual three-ring control for precise operation. Optimized for production, broadcasting, and live streaming, the AG-CX370 boasts 4-channel audio input, GENLOCK input for synchronized multi-camera recording, and a 12G-SDI output for uncompressed 4K video transmission.
High-Definition, High-Sensitivity 1.0-type 15M MOS Sensor
The 1.0-type MOS (approximately 15,030,000 pixels) offers an outstanding depth of field and excellent balance between image quality and sensitivity. It supports multi-formats, such as UHD (3840 x 2160), FHD, HD and SD, and provides images without cropping in all modes. This MOS sensor also boasts high sensitivity of F12 (60 Hz) /F13 (50 Hz) (in both UHD and FHD in High Sensitivity mode).
