Grass Valley LDXC86N Compact 1080P Full HD Camera
Grass Valley LDXC86N Compact 1080P Full HD Camera
The LDX C86N Compact Series is an extension to the LDX 86N Series of native HD/3G/4K cameras with an identical image performance and a comparable feature set but in a smaller mechanical package. They are the perfect companions to the LDX 86N Series cameras and bring a new level of image performance and business flexibility for all applications where cameras with a compact form factor are required. With the addition of BT.2020 wide color gamut support and optional HDR support, these cameras provide an outstanding solution for all HD/3G applications. Users can upgrade through the LDX C86N range for increased resolution, higher speed, or both with the GV-eLicense program.
Features:
- Native HD/3G/4K
- The LDX 86N Series has the same spatial and temporal upgrade path as the LDX 86 Series, culminating in the LDX 86N Universe for switchable 1X/3X/6X native HD/3G and 1X native 4K
- The LDX 86N WorldCam lets you buy native HD/3G acquisition today, and upgrade to native 4K and high-speed acquisition when you need to, either for 1-day (sold in packs of 10), 7-days or with a perpetual license
- The LDX 86N 4K and LDX 86N Universe are specifically designed for live broadcast 4K UHD in controlled lighting situations and/or wide angle camera positions, especially sports productions, where the use of traditional B4 mount HD/4K lenses instead of PL lenses enhances the producer’s and director’s ability to tell compelling and engaging stories, without any loss of sensitivity
- Optional HDR operation in all single speed formats
- The LDX 86N Series now delivers wide color gamut
- LDX 86N 4K and LDX 86N Universe cameras are fully integrated with all the LDX 80 Series, LDX 82 Series and LDX 86 Series of cameras, so they share the same camera accessories and use the same camera control system, including full support with the C2IP for the best possible integration into external control systems
- Unique cradle connectivity to support dockable XCU (exchangeable control unit)
- Built-in memory in XCU cradle stores settings
- Standard HD outputs for monitoring or any full performance live usage
- Extensive (analog/digital) audio connectivity
- Embedded audio
- Compact (2 RU), robust base station
- High-Speed/HD/3G/4K
- The LDX 86N HiSpeed is the newest generation camera for 3X speed applications with improved performance. It is also the first 3X speed camera system to offer an upgrade path to a 6X super slow-motion and 4K camera system via GV-eLicenses
- The LDX 86N XtremeSpeed 6X camera system sets a new standard for super slow-motion image acquisition by introducing a workflow with instant time-to-air without a cumbersome double-action memory buffer in the camera — so that not a single moment of the action will be missed or lost
- All high-speed cameras offer a live 1X standard-speed output in addition to the high-speed output
- All high-speed cameras offer the highest sensitivity and image performance across all of the different acquisition speeds, and the unique AnyLightXtreme flicker reduction system assure that no more irritating light flickering occurs in the replays
- The LDX 86 Series now delivers wide color gamut
- Grass Valley high-speed cameras are fully integrated with all the LDX 80 Series, LDX 82 Series and LDX 86 Series of cameras, so they share the same camera accessories and use the same camera control system, including full support with the C2IP for the best possible integration into external control systems
- Unique cradle connectivity to support dockable XCU (eXchangeable control unit)
- Built-in memory in XCU cradle stores settings
- Standard HD outputs for monitoring or any full performance live usage
- Extensive (analog/digital) audio connectivity
