Grass Valley has partnered with Panasonic to offer professionals and prosumers the latest AVCCAM cameras bundled with the Grass Valley EDIUS Neo 2 nonlinear editing software, starting with orders taken in April 2009. The companies have also agreed to combine their marketing efforts in order to increase penetration of the AVCHD format into the professional market.
The Grass Valley EDIUS Neo 2 software will be bundled with Panasonic’s AVCCAM cameras, ensuring that the PC-based nonlinear editing software—which shares the same user interface and many of the same features and functionality of the Grass Valley EDIUS 5 software—supports the editing of AVCHD format, HD video shot with the Panasonic AG-HMC70 series and AG-HMC150 series solid-state memory camcorders.
This bundle campaign will be in effect from April 2009 to the end of March 2010. A DVD containing the EDIUS Neo 2 software will be included in all AG-HMC70 series and AG-HMC150 series boxes starting in May.
Users who have purchased the relevant Panasonic camera recorders will receive a serial number that will allow them to install the EDIUS Neo 2 software after registering at Panasonic’s PASS system Web site. (https://eww.pavc.panasonic.co.jp/pro-av/support/desk/e/download.htm)
