The AVC-Proxy files and Network function (GigE LAN) make it possible to configure a workflow for previewing images, editing metadata and manipulating/sharing content over networks.
The PD500 offers a choice of AVC-LongG quality levels. 4:2:2 sampled codecs record in a much smaller file size.
The PD500 offers optional AVC-Intra200 recording. In addition to AVC-LongG and AVC-Intra100/50, the PD500 offers standard recording in DVCPRO HD, DVCPRO50, DVCPRO and DV.
The half-rack designed recorder has two microP2 slots and two standard P2 card slots, as well as an SD card slot for proxy/metadata recording. MicroP2 cards offer a faster transfer speed and smaller size.
The PD500's SuperSpeed USB 3.0 host interface permits super-fast transfer rates of up to 2Gbps. This allows users to easily transfer content to low-cost hard disk drives or solid-state drives for a fast and safe deliverable to clients. When attached to a computer, the USB device mode allows the PD500 to become a two-card microP2 or P2 drive. In addition, users can connect a hard drive to the PD500.

The recorder's HDMI output enables the transmission of uncompressed digital data to an array of consumer playback devices. The deck offers an RS-422A control and also includes a headphone jack and speaker, timecode in/out and a reference sync input.
Additional valuable features include up/down/cross conversion, a USB keyboard connection for easy metadata input, waveform and vectorscope display functions, and a selection from among various functions for allocation to six user buttons. The PD500 offers 12V Battery DC or AC operation and weighs eight pounds.
The optional AJ-YCX500G encoder board will provide playback of AVCHD content.
