Sony XDCU-50 HD Camera Extension Unit for XDCAM EX Camcorders (Discontinued)

Overview:
Flexibility to Fit Your Preferences in Stand-alone or Multi-camera Operation
Sony’s acclaimed XDCAM EX camcorders combine professional-quality HD acquisition with an advanced file-based workflow. All these benefits are now available in studio applications by using a studio extension system.

The XDCU-50 Camera Extension Unit, used in combination with a camcorder specific adaptor, acts as an interface between XDCAM EX camcorders and the normal range of studio equipment, including Camera Remote, Tally, Intercom, Switchers and Monitors. It achieves all of this through a simple dual coaxial connection to the camera, embedding additional data (such as intercom) in the main signal path.

The XDCU-50 can also down-convert HD to SD signals with built-in squeeze/letterbox/edge-crop for aspect ratio adjustment. This allows cameras configured for HD use to be interfaced with SD studio equipment. The Camera Extension system is designed to work in multi-camera mode when there are multiple camera adapters and camera extension units.
