Overview
Overview
The HDC3300 is the camera unit of a high-definition
super-slow-motion video camera system with a 2/3-type
CCD for 2,200,000 pixels.
It incorporates the latest pickup elements and digital
signal-processing LSI and yields higher picture quality and
higher stability in image creation at HD 3-times speed in a
system with the HDCU3300 HD Camera Control Unit,
while maintaining conventional popular functions and
operability. (This product is not designed for standalone
operations.)
Features
High picture quality and high performance
The new 2/3-type IT CCD for 2,200,000 pixels conforms
to driving formats of 3-times conventional speed,
achieving high sensitivity and low smear. In addition, the
built-in 14-bit A/D converter provides picture quality of
optimal grade in combination with the signal-processing
LSI built in the HDCU3300.
Multiple formats
The camera covers the 1080/50i and 59.94i interlace
systems as well as the 720/50P and 59.94P progressive
scan systems.
Newly designed integrated unit with low
center of gravity
The basic design has been reworked. The stylish
appearance with low-slung design improves operability as
a portable camera and, when used in combination with the
HDLA1500-series Large Lens Adaptor, it permits the
viewfinder to be mounted at a low position, making the
viewfinder position closer to the optical axis of the lens for
highly efficient operations.
Swing handle
The swinging structure of the handle enables the large
viewfinder mounted on the HDLA1500-series Large Lens
Adaptor to be shifted forward, giving it the same total
longitudinal size as a standard studio-use camera, for
operability equivalent to that of a standard studio-use
camera.
Position-adjustable shoulder pad
The position of the shoulder pad can be adjusted for stable
shooting according to the build of the camera operator, the
type of lens in use, or the shooting style.
A low-repulsion shoulder pad (position fixed) is avaliable
as an option (Part No.: A-8286-346-A).
Function-assignable switches
The camera has a switch to which various functions can be
assigned on the side panel. You can activate your desired
function, such as electronic color-temperature conversion,
instantly when shooting by assigning it to the switch in
advance. Switches on the handle are also available as
function assignable switches.
Memory Stick

Various color-reproduction functions (in
combination with HDCU3300)
Selection of the gamma table
Multiple gamma tables are provided, enabling you to use
multiple formats and perform flexible image creation.
Multimatrix color correction
In addition the standard 6-axis matrix function, the camera
has a multimatrix function that permits you to adjust the
hue and chroma for color components in 16-axis directions
independently. This is quite useful in color matching
among multiple cameras.
Knee saturation
Change of hue and decrease in chroma that occur in
highlighted areas can be compensated.
This enables reproduction of natural skin tones under
strong lighting.
Low key saturation
Hue and saturation in low-key zones can be compensated.
Thus, compensation for color reproduction in all zones is
enabled in combination with matrix color compensation
and knee saturation functions.
