Opening a New World of HD Production
Sony's standard-definition (SD) and
high-definition (HD) production cameras have been widely accepted
by a great number of video professionals around the world, due to
their excellent picture performance and system versatility.
Sony is now proud to introduce the new HSC-300 HD/SD System Camera
equipped with newly developed digital triax technology, which
allows systems to be configured with conventional triax.
The HSC-300 camera supports versatile applications for HD with a
high-quality SD output. It uses the latest 14-bit A/D conversion
circuit as well as the superb 2/3-inch Power HADâ„¢
FX CCDs to bring out high picture quality.
Together with the highly compact 1.5 RU-size HSCU-300 Camera
Control Unit, the HSC-300 camera offers a broad choice of system
configurations including the MSU-950/900 Master Setup Unit. Thus,
the HSC-300 can be used in a large-scale broadcasting system
consisting of multiple cameras or as a simple studio system.
The HSC-300 also offers large-lens operation in combination with
Sony's HDLA-1500 Series Large Lens Adaptors, which are accepted
worldwide for the operation with HDC Series cameras. These Lens
adaptors, featuring a unique "Quick Mount" design, help to maximize
the operability of the camera.
With a variety of beneficial functions packed into the camera, such
as its Focus Assist function, the HSC-300 provides genuine
user-friendliness.
