Ikegami announces its product lineup for NAB NY 2024. Launching on Ikegami booth 1027 will be the ultra-compact UHL-X40 4K-UHD/HD 3-CMOS camera. Also on show will be the established UHK-X600 camera and HQLM-3125X monitor.
NEW: Ikegami UHL-X40 Ultra-Compact UHD/HD HDR Camera
The UHL-X40 is an ultra-compact box style UHD camera measuring just 4.7 x 5 x 4.4 inches in size and weighing only 2.4 pounds. It is designed for applications requiring an inconspicuous camera with uncompromised UHD performance. The head is powered locally with 12 volts DC (just 23 watts) and connects with the compact CCU-X40 via up to 6.2 miles of duplex single-mode fiber carrying uncompressed RGB raw pixel data. Included with the fiber link is a 1G Ethernet trunk for external data such as pan/tilt/zoom control.
The UHL-X40 incorporates three high quality 2/3-inch UHD sensors with a global shutter pixel architecture which captures natural images even when shooting LED screens, clear of geometric distortion during still frame replay. The global shutter imagers also minimize artifacts when televising flash/strobe-illuminated stage environments. The UHL-X40 achieves F10 sensitivity at 2160p59.94, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 62 dB in HD. HDR and BT.2020 color reproduction are available as standard.
The CCU-X40 can output two formats simultaneously, such as 2160p UHD and 1080i HD. Output signals are selectable between the following resolutions and scanning rates:
3840 x 2160 at 59.94p and 50p
1920 x 1080 at 59.94p and 50p
1920 x 1080 at 59.94i and 50i
1280 x 720 at 59.94p and 50p
1920 x 1080 at 29.97psF and 25psF
A supplementary HD monitor output from the CCU includes information such as menu, characters and markers. Focus assist can be enabled on this output, providing viewfinder video to a remotely located robotics operator.
Features also include automatic vignetting correction and F-stop ramping zoom lens compensation, minimizing dark corners and overall loss of light when the lens is in telephoto mode and the iris is open. An optional tally light can be attached to the upper front of the camera head.
The UHL-X40 can be operated from any Ikegami OCP and MCP physical or virtual control panel. At NAB NY, Ikegami will use the new OCP-500 which was introduced at the April 2024 NAB Show in Las Vegas. This compact but full function operation control panel includes joystick control of iris and master black, plus a color touchscreen with rotary encoders for accessing the full range of operating and setup controls.
SPOTLIGHTING: Ikegami UHK-X600 4K-upgradeable 3-CMOS Full-HD portable HDR wide color gamut camera system
Part of the Unicam XE line, the UHK-X600 is a broadcast-quality 1920 x 1080 camera built to withstand the rigours of OB and EFP as well as studio operation. It can be pedestal or tripod mounted or operated over the shoulder. At the front end are three 2/3-inch oversampling UHD CMOS sensors providing 1000 TV lines resolution, minimal aliasing and 2000 lux sensitivity at F10 (60p). Standard features include full support for Hybrid Log Gamma HDR with the ability to select between BT.2020 and BT.709 chroma spaces. The camera's global shutter imagers minimize artifacts when televising LED screen walls or flash/strobe-illuminated stage environments.
License-key based options for the UHK-X600 include support for 2x, 3x and 4x high frame rate capture plus 4K processing delivering 2000 TVL resolution when operating in 2160p. Plug-in hardware-based options include a SMPTE ST 2110 compatible media-over-IP interface board and optional 12G output board.
The UHK-X600 has a low vertical profile and weighs just over 11 pounds. It accepts a wide range of B4 lenses and supports chromatic aberration correction, vignetting correction, ramping compensation and remote control of backfocus (when also supported by the lens). Core of the electronics is a power-efficient ASIC which encapsulates a wide range of high grade video processing functions into ultra-compact component dimensions. When combined with the Ikegami BSX-100 base station, the camera optionally supports simultaneous output in UHD and HD.
SPOTLIGHTING: Ikegami HQLM-3125X master grade 4K monitor
The HQLM-3125X is a 31 inch 4K-UHD master-grade monitor with 4,096 x 2,160 pixel 10-bit resolution and high brightness (1,000 candela per square metre). Designed for critical image evaluation in broadcast production control environments, it has a double LCD layer panel delivering a 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio with true black reproduction. A layer of light-modulating cells allows pixel by pixel control of backlight intensity, reducing light leakage and black floating. Fully compliant with BT.2020 wide color gamut, the monitor incorporates single-channel 12G-SDI x 2, 3G-/HD-SDI 5 and HDMI inputs as standard features. Viewing angle for critical image evaluation is a wide 178 degrees (horizontal/vertical). 1D and 3D LUTs are supported.
