Panasonic announced the much awaited debut of the AW-HE130 at the Content and Communications World show today in New York City! This pan/tilt/zoom camera incorporates high sensitivity, low noise 1/3" 3-MOS imagers that produces crisp stunning pictures despite the lighting conditions. The Power over Ethernet+ (POE+) allows for an easy install and accommodates multi-stream transmission of H.264 HD video with audio at 1080/60p at 25mbps. The Panasonic family of PTZ cameras has become the de-facto standard remote control camera for educational, government, and house of worship use, and is likewise prevalent in news, staging, sports and reality television production. So it's not surprising that the AW-HE130 comes with an exceptional signal to noise ratio of 60dB (F8/2000lx, minimum illumination, 2.0 lx), 1000 TV lines of resolution, and such advanced features as 12-axis color correction and Panasonic’s exclusive DRS (Dynamic Range Stretch) and Hybrid Digital Noise Reduction, the HE130 continues to set performance standards for integrated pan-tilt cameras. The HE130 includes the same new three 2.4 megapixel MOS imagers and Digital Signal Processor (DSP) used in Panasonic’s latest broadcast camcorders, such as the AJ-PX270. Equipped with a fast F1.6 20X zoom lens plus a new high-res 1.4X digital extender, the compact HE130 is ideally matched to demanding applications in sports, rental/staging, news, and business and institutional video.
The HE130 delivers a breadth of international HD and SD video signal formats including: 1080/59.94p, 1080/50p, 1080/59.94i, 1080/50i, 1080/29.97psF, 1080/25psF, 
1080/23.98psF, 1080/29.97p, 1080/25p/1080/23.98p, 720/59.94p, 720/50p, 480/59.94p, 576/50p (HDMI), 480/59.94i and 576/50i. JPEG and H.264 video can be streamed over IP at up to 1080/60p. This camera’s integrated pan-tilt head covers a wide range of motion, with a pan of ±175° and a tilt of –30° to 210°. The pan-tilt driver combines a high level of responsiveness with static precision. An NC (Noise Criteria) level of 35 is maintained for shooting in noise sensitive environments. Up to 100 preset positions and camera settings are stored in the camera, more than enough for the most demanding large venue installation. The camera weighs only 6.8 lbs., and consumes just over 21 watts at 12 VDC.
The camera is exceptionally easy to integrate, and is available in two colors (-W: pearl white; and -K: black matte metallic) to suit a wide range of applications. A twist-lock ceiling mount is included as a standard accessory, and the HE130 is also equipped with a ¼-20 tripod mounting screw receptacle and a safety lanyard for use with many mounting and grip systems. An optional heavy-duty wall mount is available in either black (FEC-120WMK) or white (FEC-120WMW.)
The AW-HE130 will be available in December 2014 at a suggested list price of $8990.00. For more information about the AW-HE130 and other Panasonic professional video products, visit www.us.panasonic.com/varicam or contact Panasonic at 877-803-8492
