Boasting three 2.6MP 2/3" CMOS sensors with a horizontal resolution of 1000TVL, the Ikegami HDK-73 HDTV Camera Head offers native multiformat support with progressive and interlaced readout functionalities. The HDK-73's standard B4 mount ensures compatibility with a wide range of lenses, while its docking body design allows the attachment of a CA-75HD camera adapter or FA-97A fiber adapter for video and power I/O functionality.
High-Performance Full HD 2/3" CMOS Sensors
The HDK-73 utilizes three 2/3" 2.6MP CMOS sensors, each capable of capturing Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution images and a wide dynamic range of more than 600%, giving you a sensitivity of F12 (60 Hz) / F13 (50 Hz) and a high signal-to-noise ratio.
Native Multi-Format
The CMOS sensors support progressive and interlace readouts, natively supporting 1080i59.94 and 1080i50, as well as 720p59.94 and 720p50 HDTV formats. SD formats 480i59.9 (NTSC) and 576i50 (PAL) are available with an optional BSF-300 base station.
Advanced Full Digital DSP
This camera is designed based on end-to-end digital processing, made possible by using CMOS sensors, and it includes the benefits of high-bit quantization. Especially for the dark areas of the picture, the higher gradation for gamma and other circuits improves the reproduction, providing for more natural color in the shadow areas of the picture. Up to 38 bits are used within the DSP.
Lens Aberration Correction Function
The Lens Aberration Correction function is incorporated to minimize the loss of resolution and colored edges caused mainly by lens chromatic aberration.
Quick EZ Focus Assist Function
The Quick EZ Focus Assist function is a newly incorporated useful tool, providing a very distinct enhancement to the viewfinder signal to enable the camera operator to make critical focus adjustments. The size of the area, area color, edge color, and display time on the viewfinder are adjustable in the camera menu.
RET and QTV Channels
The separately available base stations for the HDK-73 support four channels of return video (RET), two each for SDI and VBS. The selected channel can be output as an HD-SDI signal (upconverted if input in SDTV) and used to feed a talent monitor or for other purposes. In addition, there is a separate prompter channel (QTV) with SDTV input at the base station and SD output at the camera.
Advanced Digital Detail
Horizontal and vertical detail correction circuits for red, green, and blue signals are independently and digitally processed. You can obtain the full resolution of a high-quality picture with extremely low noise, even under low-light shooting conditions.
Dockable Camera Body
With a docking style camera body, the separately available CA-75HD camera adapter or FA-97A fiber adapter can be mounted without any external cables, depending on the use. A new lower-profile, lower-weight design improves maneuverability for shoulder use.
HDR - High Dynamic Range
The camera provides an HDR function with its HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma) curve. It is now possible to shoot a scene with high dynamic range without losing gradation in the highlights.
