HD Video Camera to UltraHD HDR Live Production
The following workflow demonstrates feeding an HD video camera signal to an
UltraHD HDR capable video switcher through the FS-HDR for a live production. In
this example a Canon camera's HD Log 2 output is converted to UltraHD Hybrid
Log Gamma.

Setup
• Ensure the FS-HDR is receiving a valid reference signal. Connect a 1080i59.94
HD tri-level sync signal to one of the Ref Loop BNC connectors, and terminate
the other Ref Loop BNC connector.
• Configure the camera (for example, SDI 1080i59.94 Canon Log 2)
• Connect the camera's SDI output connector to the SDI1 input on the rear of
the FS-HDR. Once connected the FS-HDR front panel VID IN LED will light.
• Connect the four FS-HDR SDI1-4 video output BNC connectors to a UltraHD
video production switcher that supports Hybrid Log Gamma.
• View the FS-HDR SDI output signal on a compatible HDR display.
