Panasonic 24 Minute DVCPro Cassette Tape: AJ-P24M

Outstanding Picture Quality and Durability in a Small Cassette Tape

The DVCPRO digital cassette tape brings an exceptionally compact size and high reliability to wide range of professional applications like broadcasting or program production. This 6.35-mm-wide metal particle digital tape — the world's smallest and lightest — incorporates newly developed high-output metal magnetic particles that have made downsizing possible while delivering superb picture and sound quality. The DVCPRO cassette tape also boasts excellent tape transport stability and outstanding durability.

The World's Most Compact Digital Video Cassette for Broadcasting:
The ultracompact DVCPRO cassette is just 1/4 the overall size and 1/6 the weight of the standard 1/2-inch cassette tape used in news gathering, yet it offers twice the recording time— 66 minutes. This combination of smaller size and longer recording time means extra flexibility in the field.

MP Tape Technology Achieves Higher Output, Lower Noise:
The DVCPRO cassette tape delivers significantly higher output and lower noise than conventional MP tape.

Smooth Tape Transport, Excellent Durability and Reliability:
An ultra-flat base film and advanced calendering techniques give DVCPRO tape an ultra-smooth magnetic layer surface that eliminates spacing loss and micro-dropouts. This results in both low error rates and a higher C/N ratio, even in the high-frequency band. DVCPRO tape also features a new type of binder using a high-polymer that helps protect the magnetic layer and assure excellent durability, even with repeated usage and still playback.

Durable Cassette Shell:
A tough cassette shell and sealed structure assure durability and prevent entry of dust or other particles into the cassette. The cassette also features a reel-lock mechanism that prevents tape sagging and a slide-type erase prevention mechanism to protect against mishaps.
