High image quality, easy operation and outstanding reliability
from a new generation HD multi-format camera
The AK-HC3500 is the zenith of advanced camera design. In addition to a unique 2/3-inch IT-3CCD and spatial
offset processing technologies, it offers a newly-developed 14-bit A/D converter and 38-bit Digital Signal
Processing LSI for exceptional image quality. To satisfy the demands of shooting in the field, it also features an
ergonomic design for easier, more comfortable use. Add to this outstanding performance, and you have the ideal
studio and field multi-format camera for the high definition era.

Blue channel sensitivity has been improved
approximately 3 dB to achieve a better
response ratio. Even deep-blue colors can be
reproduced with vivid chrominance and
significantly reduced noise.
Panasonic CCD sensor technology and the improved on-chip
lens performance offers a high sensitivity of F10 (1080/59.94i)
/F11 (1080/50i) at 2 000 lx, a low smear level and an excellent
signal to noise ratio of 60 dB.
Panasonic's single-channel transfer system and spatial-offset
processing technologies improve signal modulation depth and
reduce moire.

Switchable output HD/SD formats
The AK-HC3500's multi-format capability makes it perfect for
demanding broadcasts and program production at home and
abroad. Using the optional down converter board also enables
HD to SD signal (480i/576i) conversion.
