Sony HDC1700L Specification Sheet

HDC-1700
HD Camera System
Superb Image Quality with Cutting-edge
Technologies
With 2/3-inch CCD image sensors, the newly developed digital signal
processor (DSP) LSI provides superior S/N levels as well as better
functionality. Also, a 16-bit A/D converter produces optimal visual
imagery and enhanced black reproduction.
Adaptive Matrix Function
With the Adaptive Matrix function, images with well-balanced details can
be reproduced even in strong monochromatic light conditions, such as at
stage events.
Auto Lens Chromatic Aberration Compensation
(ALAC-2)
With the newly designed DSP LSI, the ALAC-2 function automatically
compensates for lens chromatic aberration. ALAC-2 works in both
horizontal and vertical directions.
* Lenses need to be corresponded to ALAC feature.
Options Expand Usage
There are many optional accessories for the HDC-1700, including the
HKC-DF20 Dual Optical Filter Unit and HZC-PSF20 Signal Format Software
(1080/23.98p, 24p, 25p, 29.97p). These options supports a range of
different shooting scenes and requirements.
Spirit Level
With the MEMS-Acceleration Sensor, the horizontal level can be displayed
on the viewfinder screen, which helps particularly with wide-angle shooting.
HDCU-1700
Camera Control Unit
Sony introduces the new HDC-1700 Dual-format HD Camera System
equipped with sophisticated three-chip 2/3-inch CCD image sensors and
the latest 16-bit A/D converter to provide superior picture quality.
The HDC-1700 supports HD and SD signal formats including 1080/50i,
1080/59.94i, 720/50p, and 720/59.94p. For flexibility, there are many
HDC Series accessories that can be utilized, such as optional HD viewfinders
and large lens adaptors. And the HDC-1700 is a truly cost-effective camera
that also delivers genuine user-friendness.
HDLA Large Lens Adaptor Maximizes Operability
HDLA-1500, HDLA-1505, and HDLA-1507 adaptors maximize the
operability of the HDC-1700. These optional adapters provide flexibility
when applications require a large studio lens, and camera operators
want to maintain hard camera control. They facilitate simple connectivity
without time-consuming wiring and adjustments.
1.5 Gbps Optical Fiber Transmission
The HDC-1700 is capable of long-distance signal transmission up to
2,000 meters with the HDCU-1700 Camera Control Unit.
* The HDC-1700 is only used in combination with the HDCU-1700.
HDCU-1700 Camera Control Unit (CCU)
The HDC-1700 can be configured with the HDCU-1700 dedicated
camera control unit (CCU), which is a 19-inch half-rack size portable
CCU for fiber cable connection. The HDCU-1700 CCU can control
camera menu settings and display fiber condition on the front panel. It
has an expansion slot for the four HD/SD SDI outputs board; and the
option board slot is
used for HKCU
option cards to
expand the CCUs
output capability to
include VBS out,
PIX out, WFM out,
and component
video out.
