Continuing the Hitachi tradition of delivering exceptional visual quality and superior price/performance value for live production applications, the SK-UHD7000 incorporates three 2/3 CMOS image sensors with native 4K resolution to enable pristine capture of 3840x2160 UHD video. The sensors' global shutter technology minimizes unwanted artifacts such as flickering and banding that could otherwise occur when capturing video in event venues, television production sets, and worship environments with LED lighting and large LED displays.

The SK-UHD7000 also delivers extraordinary sensitivity and quality for Ultra HD production. Sensitivity of F11 at 59.94 frames per second enables high-quality acquisition in limited lighting, while a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 62 dB provides ultra-quiet images. The camera's new prism design enables superior color reproduction, while its dual 4K and HDTV workflow enables seamless multi-format productions and supports separate controls for High Dynamic Range (HDR) and standard dynamic range (SDR).

The SK-UHD7000 combines its exceptional performance and extensive feature set with a price point that makes native 4K live production accessible to more customers. The adoption of 4K production workflows is no longer limited to just broadcast and major sporting events, said John J. Humphrey, Vice President of Business Development at Hitachi Kokusai. The SK-UHD7000 is ideal for broadcast and sports, but also makes premium 4K acquisition capabilities cost-effective for everyone from live event production companies to houses of worship. The camera was extremely well-received by broadcasters and production professionals when we unveiled it at the NAB Show, and we're excited to showcase it for AV integrators and content producers at InfoComm.
