Used SONY HDC-1500

Listing description

SONY HDC-1500 Second hand camera chain is 1080/50p compatible and upgradable for 3G transmissionThe SONY HDC-1500 Second hand camera can capture 1080/50p and outputs from the camera head in dual link mode. Better yet, with a 3G migration kit, the HDC-1500R can be upgraded as a 3G broadcast system. For broadcasters looking to migrate to 1080/50p in the future, Sony offers the HDC-1500R 1080p-ready; An investment for the future. *The arrival of the 3G migration kit is expected for 2010.

New CCD and DSP technologies provide exceptional imaging performance

The use of state-of-the-art CCD sensors guarantees high-quality images even at very low light levels. Its high F11 sensitivity at 2,000 lux combined with a signal-to-noise ratio of -56 dB allows for unprecedented image quality.

multi-format operation

The SONY HDC-1500 Second hand can work in various capture modes such as 1080 50/60i and 1080 24/25/30P. In addition, the CCD can capture 1080 50/60P images, which can be upconverted to deliver the best quality 720 50/60P images.

Ergonomic design

The design of the HDC-1500R cameras is the result of more than two decades of experience accumulated by Sony in the manufacture of cameras and camcorders for the broadcast sector, which translates into a high level of functionality and manageability. All control knobs and connectors are placed in the most logical places and in the most suitable position to provide optimum functionality and handling. HDC-1500R is designed with a low center of gravity that allows the operator to carry it comfortably on the shoulder. Added to this is that the HDC-1500R's shoulder strap can be adjusted forwards or backwards without the need for a screwdriver, to put the camera in the most comfortable position.

Sophisticated studio lens adapter designed for easy attachment without cables

The HDLA-1500 Studio Lens Adapter features a unique mechanism that allows you to quickly connect and disconnect the camera without removing the lens. The connection of the cables between the camera and the adapter is not necessary thanks to its new "shoe attached" system.

Selectable and flexible transmission system by optical fiber or analogue triaxial cable.HDC-1500R provides a fully digital transmission link to the control unit. Using a standard copper and hybrid fiber SMPTE cable, it enables fully transparent transmission of video and audio signals with full bandwidth and cable lengths of up to 3,000 meters. This ensures the highest quality HD signals for any production environment. And not only that: with the HDTX-100/HDFX-100 adapter, the HDC-1500 can be used as a triaxial transmission system.

The USED HDC-1500 portable camera uses advanced HD Digital Signal Processing with 14 bit A/D converters. It additionally incorporates an incipiently developed CCD imager that engenders images in either 1080 50 or 60 frame progressive or 1080 50 or 60 field interlace frame rates, depending on desired final system output. The incipient CCD and DSP LSI are two key contrivances that sanction stunning image engenderment in a variety of scanning modes. The incipient 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 USED HDC-1500 camera provides digital transmission using SMPTE standard fiber optic cable to transmit high-quality digital data over long distances. The camera additionally provides two HD SDI outputs and one digitally down-converted SDI or analogue composite output. In addition, viewfinder signals with characters can be output from the SDI output connector, giving camera operators supplemental accommodation. Furthermore, when in 24P operation, the built-in 2-3 pull-down function of the HDC-1500 enables 60i down-converted SD signals to be output on a standard SD monitor – a capability that withal minimizes the flicker that generally occurs on the viewfinder.

The USED HDC-1500, if required, can be operated in a triax environment using the HDTX-100 triax adapter.
