Smart Flexibility
Operating Versatility
Robust Design
In order to survive the stresses of professional use, the
main chassis of HSC Series cameras are made of a
magnesium-alloy casting. This rigid body ensures the
camera is highly durable and helps to protect its
lightweight precision components such as integrated
optical elements and electronics.
Position-adjustable Shoulder Pad
The position of the shoulder pad can be adjusted – either
forwards or backwards – to provide users with optimum
weight balance. This is particularly useful when the camera
is docked with any type of lens or camera adaptor. In
addition, no tool is required for this adjustment.
Two Types of Focus Assist Function
• Viewfinder Detail: adds dedicated image-enhancing
edge signals directly to the viewfinder, enabling the
camera operator to recognize a focusing point.
• Focus Assist Indicator: displays an indicator for
adjustment at the bottom or other position of the
viewfinder frame; this is particularly beneficial when
shooting with a wide-viewing angle.
Optimized Handle Shape for Stable Shooting
The designed carrying handle enhances camera
operability. A protrusion positioned on the front of the
handle enables the user to hold the camera with added
stability while shooting. In addition, the non-slip structure
of the handle’s lower surface helps users to grasp the
handle firmly.
ND/CC Dual Optical Servo Filters
HSC-300R and HSC-300RF cameras are equipped with
Neutral Density (ND) and Color Correction (CC) optical
servo filter units, which can be remotely controlled from a
remote control panel (RCP) or a master setup unit (MSU).
Function-assignable Switches
These HSC Series cameras have dedicated assignable
switches available for frequently used functions. Located
on both the side and rear panels, these switches allow
functions such as electronic color-temperature conversion
to be assigned as required. Buttons on the handle are also
available as function-assignable switches. All of these
switches greatly enhance the camera’s operational
convenience.
Built-in High-quality Down Converter
This down converter enables superior SD images as
standard.
Simple Yet Versatile System Configuration
HSC Series cameras offer flexible configuration with the
highly compact 1.5 RU-size HSCU-300R and HSCU-300RF
Camera Control Unit, creating a standardized 19-inch rack
system that is ideal for space-limited production areas.
When the front panel of the HSCU-300R or HSCU-300RF is
replaced with the optional HKCU-FP2 CCU Front Control
Panel, a simple remote control system can be configured.
Many camera functions can be controlled using the knobs
and switches on the HKCU-FP2.
Furthermore, when optional HZCU-MC3 camera operating
software is installed, the HSCU-300R and HSCU-300RF can
connect to the HSC-300R and HSC-300RF respectively with
the MSU-1000/1500 Master Setup Unit or RCP-1000 Series
Remote Control Unit. This enables the HSC-300R and
HSC-300RF to be used as a simple studio system or as part
of a large-scale broadcasting system consisting of multiple
cameras.
