| Panasonic
revolutionized the broadcast industry in 1995 with the
introduction of DVCPRO, creating a new standard for reliable
and robust Electronic News Gathering. Since then, DVCPRO
and DV, rather than MPEG, have been adopted in newsrooms
across the country and the world, helping to make Panasonic
a leader in the Broadcast industry.
Today, companies like Apple, Avid, Leitch, Matrox,
Pinnacle, Thomson-Grass Valley, Quantel and others have
developed DV compression based servers and DV native
NLE systems. Through the combined efforts of Panasonic
and those DVCPRO Technology Partners, DV compression
from 25 Mbps to 50 Mbps to 100 Mbps have been widely
adopted in recording, editing, play-out and computer
network systems for digital newsgathering across the
broadcast industry.
In 2004, Panasonic once again is revolutionizing the
broadcast industry with the introduction of its P2 IT
News Gathering (ING) System. Leading broadcasters into
the tapeless future, Panasonic's solid state memory
based P2 products utilize the same DV compression format
embraced by over 700 broadcast operations around the
world. Look to Panasonic to continue to pioneer new
products and new technologies that will streamline ING
and production workflows, helping to make broadcasters
faster-to-air and faster-to-profit.
