The latest deliveries complete a program which began in 2018 and was completed with the delivery of over 550 HD /UHD Cameras including SK-HD1300 series high-end HD cameras and the newly developed SK-UHD7000 UHD/HD camera.

Throughout the contract Hitachi Kokusai and the broadcasters remained in close collaboration, and Hitachi Kokusai gained invaluable feedback and guidance on the continuing development of the technology.
These have been tremendously exciting projects for us, said Cemal Yilmaz, General Manager, Hitachi Kokusai Electric Europe GmbH. Working with the world's most innovative and technologically advanced broadcasters, we gained a huge amount of practical experience and understanding of the real implications of premium content production in Ultra HD/HD. That knowledge fed directly into our rolling development program, which means that the latest iteration of our Ultra HD/HD system camera meets the real, practical requirements of broadcasters, not just in Italy, but worldwide.
