Description

Economical digital HDTV / SDTV production camera

The Z-HD5000 is a high-performance dockable design portable HDTV studio and EFP camera. With its 1 million pixels 3-CCD, the Z-HD5000 provides outstanding performance. The camera offers sharper and cleaner HD images due to its 14-bit A/D converters and Hitachi’s implementation of the latest digital processing technology. The camera achieves outstanding high sensitivity and a low vertical smear.

Camera head available with: 1080/50i/59.94i

New design camera control units

The Z-HD5000 offers the ability of 1080i/50Hz HD-SDI and simultaniusly SD-SDI format video for studio and field HDTV and SDTV productions.

The RU-1000VR remote control unit is a new design of remote operation panels for the Hitachi Z-HD5000. Painstaking attention has been paid to making the most commonly used controls and functions directly and instantaneously accessible to the video control engineer. It is an ideal production tool that enhances any HD studio or field production.
