Chapter 1 Overview
The HDC-F950 is a portable color video camera
equipped with HD-SDI 4:4:4 (RGB) outputs. It can be
connected to an HDCU-F950 Camera Control Unit or
a VTR and used mainly for movie production.
High picture quality and high performance
The new
2
/3-type 1080 Phase II FIT-CCD for
2,200,000 pixels and a unique CCD output signal
processing circuit and 12-bit A/D converter provide
high picture quality and high performance.
In addition, the HD-SDI 4:4:4 (Dual Link) outputs
provide higher-quality pictures.
Integrated unit
Low power consumption and high efficiency of heat
radiation were aggressively pursued by integrating the
camera and camera adapter into a single unit,
improving the reliability.
In addition, five filter discs each for CC and ND are
provided as standards.
Multiple formats
The HDC-F950 covers 50I and 60I systems in addition
to 24PsF, 25PsF and 30PsF.
Memory stick
1)
operation
The camera is equipped with a memory stick drive,
which enables setup data storage and software
upgrading using memory sticks.
Selection of gamma table/user gamma
Multiple gamma tables are provided, enabling you to
use multiple formats and perform flexible image
creation.
You can also flexibly create your desired gamma
curves by using the gamma editor.
LFE (Long Frame Exposure)
2)
mode
The Long Frame Exposure mode of the CCD provides
special effects for high sensitivity, high speed, and
afterimage.
Wide variety of detail control functions
Skin tone detail function
Allows control (emphasis or suppression) of the detail
level for just a certain hue or chroma area in the image,
by creating a detail gate signal from hue color
components centered on skin tones.
Detail boost frequency control
The boost frequency can be adjusted from 20 MHz to
30 MHz. This allows the detail thickness to be set
appropriately for the subject, thus enabling more subtle
image expression.
H/V ratio control
The ratio between horizontal and vertical detail can be
adjusted.
White/black limiter
The white side and black side detail can be limited
independently.
