Ikegami to Showcase Latest Generation TV Production Camer...

16/03/2026

Ikegami USA will demonstrate the latest additions to its wide range of broadcast-quality cameras, controllers and monitors on Central Hall booth C3819 during the April 19th-22nd NAB Show in Las Vegas.

"High signal quality, versatility, ease of operation and futureproof continue to be major requirements when broadcast content creators are expanding or upgrading their infrastructure," says Alan Keil, Senior Engineering Fellow at Ikegami USA.

"Among the latest-generation products we will demonstrate at NAB 2026 are our flagship UNICAM XE 3-CMOS -inch 4K-UHD cameras. These share the same network camera control architecture, allowing camera crews to transition easy between the various models in the series. A recent addition to our 4K lineup is the ultra-compact UHL-X40 which is optimized for robotic applications. Other UNICAM XE cameras on show will be the studio/portable UHK-X700 and its UHK-X750 full studio version, plus the studio/portable UHK-X600 and HDK-X500 which are HD models that have upgrade paths to 4K-UHD.

"Ikegami will introduce a key new feature in an upgraded version of its top end UNICAM XE models. Stay tuned for further details."

Ikegami IPX-100 IP compact IP base station

IP connectivity continues to play a major role in broadcast production. The IPX-100 IP compact IP base station allows broadcast content creators to adopt SMPTE ST 2110 IP remote and studio operation while supporting the familiar workflow of baseband live production. Each UNICAM XE or UNICAM HD camera can feed into an IPX-100 via up to 2 miles of conventional SMPTE-hybrid fiber cable. The camera head is powered by the IPX-100 so there is no operational difference compared with using a conventional fiber-cabled camera. An integral test signal generator allows system configuration before cameras or other sources are connected. Support is also included for the video trunk channel. An HD-SDI video monitoring output allows direct connection of a monitor to the IPX-100, facilitating initial setup. Remote setup and monitoring of the IPX-100 can be performed using Ikegami s XE WebView browser.

Ikegami OCP-500 operation control panel

Exhibited as a prototype last year and now in production, the OCP-500 is a slimline panel which takes up minimal desk space while still offering complete remote control of all camera functions, including full setup adjustment via an LCD touchscreen and associated rotary encoders. Ethernet interface, including power, is featured. Direct connection via RS-422 control cable is also available.

Ikegami UHL-X40 2-piece box camera

The UHL-X40 is a new-concept box camera with two-piece construction comprising an ultra-compact camera head and separate CCU. A key feature is the built-in fiber extension system allowing a distance up to six miles between head and CCU using just a duplex fiber cable. Included in the fiber transmission system is an Ethernet trunk channel for control of the PTZ head or other external use. The head weighs just 2.4 lbs. The CCU provides simultaneous 2160p (4K) output, HD clean output, and HD monitoring output with focus assist and other viewfinder-style indicators and markers for the remote operator.

Ikegami HLM-2460WA and HLM-1860WR picture monitors

Building on the features and performance of its HLM-2460W predecessor, the Ikegami HLM-2460WA 24-inch video monitor reproduces more accurate dynamics of the source images thanks to a 1920 x 1200 pixel IPS LCD panel with 1,800:1 contrast ratio and 400 nits peak brightness. It is designed for use in broadcast environments such as edit suites where a computer-friendly WUXGA display resolution is preferred, and for integration into monitor walls.

The HLM-1860WR is an AC or battery powered 1920 x 1080 pixel HD multiformat monitor with a larger 18.5 inch IPS LCD panel than its HLM-1760WR predecessor, within the same 19 inch rack-width 7 U high housing. The display has a 1,000:1 contrast ratio and 500 nits peak brightness, allowing it to reproduce clear images even in outdoor environments.

Among features shared by these monitors are user-definable reference marker lines or boxes which can be created easily using a USB mouse, plus eight channels of SDI-embedded audio metering and seamless tally integration.
