Sony HDC-1000 Series A Family of HD Production Tools HDC-1500 HDC-1000
The Sony HDC-1000 system camera family is based on more than 20 years of development of HD TV systems and has been the first choice for literally hundreds of broadcasters for both studio and OB applications. Many thousands of HDC-1000 systems have been sold around the world since the introduction in 2005 and the family has continued to improve and grow since then. Recent additions include the acclaimed HDC-3300 Slow-motion system (in a separate brochure) and the HDC-1400 and HDC1450 dual format cameras.
Cutting-edge Technologies Newly Developed Progressive CCD At the heart of the outstanding picture performance of the HDC-1000 Series of cameras is a newly developed 2⁄3-inch type 2.2-megapixel HD CCD.Based on Sony HAD sensor technology and the latest on-chip lens structure,this CCD offers a high sensitivity of F11 at 2,000 lx and an excellent signalto-noise ratio of 54 dB (typical). In addition to this performance, a wide variety of capturing modes including 1080/50i, 1080/59.94i, 1080/23.
Great Operability Ergonomic Design The design of the HDC-1000 Series of cameras is based on over two decades of Sony experience in manufacturing broadcast video cameras and camcorders, and provides a high level of operability. All control switches and connectors are in the most logical places for optimum functionality and ease of use.
HDLA-1500/HDLA-1505/HDLA-1507 – Maximising Operability Responding to the ever-increasing requirement of operations that combine a portable camera with a large lens, Sony has developed the optimum solution. The highly sophisticated HDLA-1500 and HDLA-1505 Large Lens Adaptors are designed to maximise operability of the HDC-1400/HDC-1450/HDC-1500/ HDC-1550 camera.
Docking 2 Docking 3 Mount the portable camera and slide forward until you hear the locking click. Close the rear cover and then slide the viewfinder forward.
Creative Versatility Digital Extender1 The Digital Extender function of the HDC-1000 Series of cameras2 enables images at the centre of the shot to be digitally doubled in size. Unlike lens extenders, the Digital Extender function performs this capability without any loss in image sen-sitivity. 1 U se of the digital extender function will reduce the resolution of the image by half. 2 T he HDC-1400/HDC-1450 do not support the digital extender function.
Knee Saturation Simulated images Traditionally, very bright parts of a scene (such as key light from a person’s forehead) suffer from a loss of saturation or a change in hue. The HDC-1000 family provide a ‘Knee Saturation’ function, which can counteract this effect and achieve a more natural appearance in these difficult areas.
Versatile System Components The HDC-1000 Series of cameras is compatible with a variety of peripherals including camera control units, remote controllers, command network units, and master setup units. This allows operators to flexibly configure the system according to their needs both in the studio and out in the field. Optional triax adaptors are available for the HDC-1000/ HDC-1400/HDC-1500 optical fibrebased camera to enable triax-based operation.
HDCU-1500 RM-B750 > Compact CCU Remote Control Unit The RM-B750 Remote Control Unit has been designed to offer a highly mobile and fully controllable camera system in the field. The RM-B750 can be connected directly to the HDC-1000 Series camera or attached to the half-rack-size HDCU-1500 Camera Control Unit. The combination of an LCD touch-panel screen and direct push buttons enables full parameter adjustment of the camera to be controlled.
Versatile System Components MSU-900 MSU-900/950 MSU-950 Master Setup Unit The MSU-900/950 Master Setup Unit is a central control panel used for the adjustment of camera parameters in a multi-camera system. The MSU900/950 unit is connected to each camera control unit in the system via the CNU-700 Command Network Unit or an Ethernet network hub.
HDTX-100 HD Triax Adaptor (Camera side) HDFX-100 HD Triax Adaptor (HDCU side) The HDTX-100 and HDFX-100 HD Triax Adaptors are available to convert optical fibre transmission to the widely-used triax transmission. The HDTX-100 adaptor is used with the HDC-1000/HDC-1400/HDC-1500 camera1 to convert their camera output to triax, while the HDFX-100 adaptor is used with the HDCU-1000/HDCU-1500 camera control unit to receive triax signals from the camera side.
Versatile System Components HKC-T1500 CCD Block Extension Adaptor The HKC-T1500 CCD Block Extension Adapter is a unique accessory for HDC-1400/ HDC-1450/HDC-1500/HDC-1550 portable cameras. It allows the CCD block to be extended from the camera body by up to 12.5 m (or 50 m with an optional cable). More creative camera shooting angles can be achieved, along with the freedom to place the imaging assembly in areas where a full-size camera would be restricted.
