The Panasonic FireStoreFS-100-160 by Focus Enhancements is a direct-to-edit digital video recorder designed specifically for the Panasonic AG-HVX200 P2 camcorder. The FS-100-160 is armed with a 160 GB hard drive which can record up to 160 minutes of DVCPRO HD 1080p footage. The short run times associated with P2 cards are a thing of the past!

This type of acquisition can be very helpful for news gathering, where broadcast ready footage is time critical.
