Focus Assist
Enjoy quick, sharp focusing manually or automatically. In auto mode,
you get the quick, sharp focusing needed in news gathering or when
shooting at a high or low angle.
When set to infinity, the focal distance is immediately prepared for
the next manual focus. When in manual mode, pressing the Push
Auto button temporarily activates auto focus.
Macro Focus can be achieved either Manually or Automatically when
the zoom lens is in the wide angle position.

versatile operation.

3-Position White Balance with Auto Tracking White Function
One press of the AWB button is all it takes to adjust the white
balance and black balance. There are three white balance values to
select from: one that's preset, and two (A, B) that you can set and
save in memory. The auto tracking white balance (ATW) function
can also be assigned to any of the three positions. The ATW mode
supports fast, active shooting by adjusting the white balance in real-
time as lighting conditions change.
Auto Button for Instant, Easy Shooting
Just press the Auto button to turn on Auto Iris, Auto Gain, Auto
Tracking White Balance, and Auto Focus — and you are quickly
ready to shoot. You can also customize the Auto button by removing
functions and setting the gain to any value desired.
With this new Auto function, the AG-DVX102B gives you the best of
both worlds — the speed and ease of automatic operation, and the
precision of manual control.
Lightweight Design with Balanced Grip
The AG-DVX102B introduces a new design that ends the
contradiction between a compact, lightweight body and a stable,
secure hold.
The center of balance is located precisely at the handgrip. Because
there's no need for a wide-angle conversion lens, the weight balance
is ideal for comfortable shooting. The AG-DVX102B's short body and
light weight — it weighs just 1.9 kg in operating condition* — means
free, easy maneuverability. Plus, the low-center-of-gravity design and
new skeleton lens hood greatly improve forward vision.

Magnesium Alloy Chassis –
The Rugged Durability Professionals Need
The AG-DVX102B features
the same magnesium alloy
diecast chassis as our
DVCPRO broadcast models.
This tough, rigid unit protects
the high-precision
mechanism, giving
the AG-DVX102B
outstanding reliability and
durability. Built for
professionals, the AG-DVX102B stands up to the bumps and jolts that
occur in the field.
Automatic Head Cleaning
The AG-DVX102B provides
the same head cleaning
function as our DVCPRO
models. The white roller pad
positioned to the right of the
head cylinder cleans the
head each time you load a
tape, helping to minimize
dropouts and head clogging.
