New SK-UHD7000-S2 multi-format HD camera converts to 4K with simple upgrade.
Hitachi Kokusai Electric America, Ltd. (Hitachi Kokusai) will be showing its wide range of HD/UHD and HDR support for high-quality visual content acquisition across numerous AV applications at InfoComm (June 14-16, Orange County Convention Center, Orlando).
New to AV audiences is the SK-UHD7000-S2, a multi-format HD camera that converts to 4K with an affordable license upgrade option. The upgrade path offers a lower initial purchase point for customers who want high-quality 1080p immediately along with a cost-effective, field-upgradeable path to 4K production, making it a viable investment for houses of worship, live event venues and corporate clients looking toward a 4K future.
The SK-UHD7000-S2 delivers spectacular depth modulation, lifelike images, exceptional visual quality, and superior price/performance for live performance applications while providing signal to noise ratio surpassing -62dB on every output. The upgrade license will also integrate new 4K technologies that Hitachi Kokusai develops moving forward, ensuring that customers always receive the latest benefits and features when they upgrade.
Whisper quiet and delivering ultra-clear images that look almost 3D, the SK-UHD7000-S2 offers customers more creative freedom than ever when it comes to lighting exposure and color control.
Hitachi Kokusai will also demonstrate its established DK-H200 multi-format HD box camera at InfoComm. The DK-H200 features native, full-frame rate 1080p acquisition in a form factor ideal for point-of-view and remote observation applications. Its 2.6 million pixel, 2/3-inch, MOS sensors deliver sharp, clear images. These advanced sensors combine with Hitachi Kokusai’s renowned digital signal processing technology and the camera’s natively progressive signal flow to provide superior picture quality with low noise, true-to-life color reproduction, and high dynamic range.
In addition, the camera’s 60dB signal-to-noise ratio enables clear images with minimal noise even at high gain and is complemented by outstanding standard sensitivity of F12 at 59.94Hz and F13 at 50Hz.Delivering pristine 1080p video acquisition at a price point previously expected only of interlaced cameras, the DK-H200 makes top-caliber, progressive capture affordable and accessible to more verticals than before, including government, house of worship and live event venues.
“Hitachi Kokusai excels at supporting the business and communications needs of in-house live production and professional content creation through diverse products and outstanding live production quality,” said Sean Moran, Chief Operating Officer at Hitachi Kokusai Electric America Ltd. “Whether it’s a news broadcast, sporting event, or a business conference, Hitachi Kokusai’s camera systems continue to deliver flawless imagery.
