Description

The Camracer is a complete optical fiber transmission solution for camera connections on Outside Broadcast, Studio and Cinema applications. It is composed of a camera-dockable transmitter, agnostic to any type or brand of Camera and a 1RU basestation receiver.

The transmitter is fitted in a V-mount dockable unit which can be installed on any camera. Red/green tally led are located on top of the unit. A user panel feature LEDs for signal presence/activity, rotary button for volume adjustment and various level settings (sidetone, program1 / program2 listen level) along with push to talk commands.

Cooling of the unit is done by a small and silent fan located at the back of the unit.

The basestation receiver is integrated in a standard 19” 1RU format. All signals are dispatched on standard connectors and standard pinout at the rear of the chassis. (Web server is on a separate Ethernet port).

The front of the chassis is composed of a LED display panel indicating the status of each signals and technical alarms. An Oled display gives direct access to optical receiving levels and server IP address.

The basestation integrates a single mains power supply and two fans for thermal management.

Electrical Interfaces, There are 4 standard configurations of CAM Racer.

Telecast SHED HDX
Telecast SHED HDX
SHED stands for SMPTE Hybrid Elimination Device, and that is what it is. It is a small adapter that allows you to use ordinary single-mode optical fibre for your HD, 4K and slow-motion camera links and in your venue/facility infrastructure, and eliminate bulky hybrid wire/ fibre. SHED adapter shown with HDX camera power unit cables. Use two small adapters — one at your base station and one at your camera — and locally power your camera, or use the HDX unit to power the camera through the hybrid tail cable. With the SHED units you can support several cameras on one lightweight fibre cable. Allows the use of conventional single-mode fiber cable Uses common SMPTE ST 304 connectors for a hybrid link Extends manufacturer’s distance limits of the camera/CCU Supports Sony cameras Built-in optical power meter Cameras Supported: Sony 1500/1500R/2500/4300 PRODUCT MANUAL

Lawo V Pro 8
Lawo V Pro 8
The V__pro8 is the perfect tool to connect different video formats as well as to connect between audio and video. High-quality format conversion, color correction as well as audio embedding and de-embedding make the V__pro8 a compact and powerful video processor that builds bridges between different worlds and formats. Two high-density MADI audio ports provide efficient video-to-audio bridging within the studio infrastructure. The V__pro 8 works as a flexible matrix system: using its 8 x 8 video matrix and 384 x 384 audio matrix, it is possible to switch any signal to any other. A modern GUI based on HTML5 provides an ideal interface for easy handling of day-to-day work. Here’s how it works: eight high-quality 3G SDI de-embedders and a corresponding number of embedders are looped into the eight video signals according to your preferences. This enables any number of audio signals to be used from the video material, and new audio signals to be embedded into the video signal — a simple, reliable and efficient solution. The V__pro8 can be configured via an easy-to-understand HTML 5-based touch screen interface that runs directly within the web browser. No software installation is needed. As a result, you benefit not only from state-of-the-art user-guidance, but also from elegant animations and many, practical features such as the video channel preview on your GUI. In addition, the web-based approach enables the user to access all V__line devices from anywhere within the network — a feature especially useful in bigger set-ups or in outside broadcast productions with long-distance links. Frame sync for each of the 8 channels Variable audio and video delays for each channel RGB Color correction & Proc Amp for each channel Two Surround-to-stereo downmixers per embedder Frame Phaser and Line Phaser modes Embedding and de-embedding incl. SRC for each channel Up/Down/Cross format & AR conversion for two channels Internal 8×8 video and 384×384 audio routing matrix Product Manual

Sony PVM-X1800 HDR Monitor
Sony PVM-X1800 HDR Monitor
The PVM-X1800 is an 18.4-inch 4K HDR high grade picture monitor, incorporating a Sony-specified premium LCD panel that offers 1000 cd/m2 luminance and colour matching with the BVM-HX310 4K HDR master monitor. This makes group monitoring easy for on-set, studio and OB van walls, and in 19” EIA racks for editing, audio mixing etc. Sony’s acclaimed TRIMASTER architecture delivers accurate picture reproduction, precise imaging and quality picture consistency. There are many advantages in the panel control and signal processing system such as fast processing, accurate linearizing of an input signal with Optical Electrical Transfer Function, accurate colour reproduction, etc. Dynamic Contrast Drive is a new backlight control system that dynamically changes the panel’s backlight luminance to adapt to changing content enabling you to confirm the total balance of highlights and low lights at a glance. The feature can be used to reproduce black representation in dark content, such as night scenes and provide specular highlights in bright content such as snow field and summer beach scenes. The Dynamic Contrast Drive feature provides a dynamic contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. Due to the inherent nature of LCD panels, some backlight leakage is unavoidable. To compensate, Black Detail Mode High/Mid/Low facilitates more accurate monitoring of black detail in dark, low- APL (average picture level) images. The backlight level is reduced but gamma is maintained for correct colour and grey scale. High luminance areas may be clipped due to the dynamic range of the monitor. Any clipped portions can be displayed as clipped or highlighted by a zebra pattern. Color-matched 4K HDR picture monitors color with the BVM-HX310 Dynamic Contrast Drive and Black Detail High/Mid/Low Inputs for 12G-SDI and Quad-Link 3G-SDI to HD-SDI as well as HDMI Unique Quad View display with User 3D LUT Product Manual
