The HDC-1000 is now ready for 3G transmission
The HDC-1000 studio camera utilises advanced HD Digital Signal Processing with 14 bit A/D. The HDC-1000 incorporates a newly developed CCD imager that creates images in either 1080/50 frame progressive or 1080/50 field interlace frame rates, depending on desired final system output. The new CCD and DSP LSI are two key devices that allow stunning image creation in a variety of scanning modes. The new camera system accommodates all popular interlace and progressive scan formats including 1080/50, 1080/24P as well as the highest-quality 720/50P images.
The HDC-1000 provides digital transmission using SMPTE standard fibre optic cable for connecting its associated HDCU-1000/1500 Camera Control Unit. In addition to its exceptional quality, the camera can transmit all-digital bi-directional video and audio signals, one control line, power line, and prompter line over extremely long distances - up to 3000 metres with the HDCU-1000 and 1800 metres with the HDCU-1500. If required, the HDC-1000 can be operated in a triax environment by utilising the optional HDFX-100 tr

New DSP delivers standards of picture quality and performance
The newly developed DSP (Digital Signal Processing) LSI "Visual Image Processor" is the heart of the image-processing device for the HDC-1000. By adopting the latest 0.11 micron design rule, this processor can accommodate up to 1080/60 progressive format and 14-bit resolution, maximising the high-clarity images captured by the CCD. In addition, white balance, white shading, and flare are digitally corrected, allowing for stable image correction.
Power HAD EX CCD for high sensitivity, low noise
The HDC-1000 camera is equipped with a newly developed three 2/3-inch type 2.2-megapixel HD CCD. Based on Sony HAD sensor technology and the latest on-chip lens structure, this new CCD offers a high sensitivity of F10 at 2000 lx and an excellent signal-to-noise ratio of 54 dB (typical). In addition to this performance, a wide variety of capturing modes including 1080/50i, 1080/60i, 1080/24P, 1080/25P, and 1080/30P are available. What's more, this CCD can capture top-quality 1080/60P(*) images - a capability that also offers highest-quality 720/50P and 720/60P image acquisition for today's operations.
(*)1080/60P and 1080/50P signals can be output from the HDC-1000/HDC-1500 camera head.
14 bit A/D conversion
The HDC-1000 is the first HD camera to utilise a 14-bit A/D converter, that enables images captured by the high-performance CCDs to be processed with maximum precision. In particular, this high-resolution A/D conversion allows the gradation in mid-to-dark-tone areas of the picture to be faithfully reproduced. Thanks to the 14-bit A/D converter, pre-knee signal compression at highlight areas can be eliminated and the camera can clearly reproduce a high-luminance subject at a 600% dynamic range.
Low profile chassis design
The unique design of the HDC-1000 provides a very low mounting for the viewfinder. This ensures very convenient and comfortable operation, by keeping the viewfinder close to the axis of the lens.
Super-sampled 720P operation
The use of a 1080 line HD imager which can operate at up to 50 progressive frames per second allows the camera system to output a very high quality 720/50P output. Digital filtering is employed to ensure higher resolution and lower aliasing to be achieved than would be possible with a 720P native image sensor.
