Overview

The AJ-PX800G is a lightweight shoulder-type camera-recorder for newsgathering. It is network connectable and provides superb picture quality, high mobility and excellent cost performance. Weighing only about 2.8 kg (main unit), the AJ-PX800G is one of the world’s lightest shoulder-type camera-recorder equipped with three MOS image sensors for broadcasting applications. Paired with a Teradek transmitter/receiver the system allows the camera operator to move about more freely.

The 2.2-megapixel 2/3” type 3MOS (RGB) image sensors offer full-pixel HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, F12 (59.94 Hz) or F13 (50 Hz) sensitivity and low noise with an S/N of 62 dB. It also achieves rich gradation and vibrant color reproduction.

The AJ-PX800G supports 59.94 Hz/50 Hz switching for convenient use in productions, and records 1080/59.94i, 23.98p, 25p, 29.97p and 720p HD/SD multiple formats.
