HXC-FB80
The HXC-FB80 is a cost-effective high-performance HD portable camera with three Sony 2/3-inch Exmor CMOS sensors and a 3G-SDI platform capable of 1080/50p and 59.94p signal processing while achieving low power consumption.
In combination with the HXCU-FB80 4K/HD Camera Control Unit, it offers user-beneficial expandability including 4K upscale and HD HDR support (HLG, Hybrid Log-Gamma) for a future-proof solution. The optional PC-based HZC-RCP5 Remote Control Panel is available for a simpler application system.
Your future proofed 4K live production solution
The HXC-FB80 gives you a future proofed entry point to the benefits of 4K production. Teamed with the HXCU-FB80 Camera Control Unit, detail-packed 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) images are available – making the HXC-FB80 system ideal for creating content in Ultra HD.
Ready for HDR
Future-proof your content for viewers to enjoy on the fast-growing choice of High Dynamic Range TV sets and display devices. A free firmware update (scheduled summer 2018) enables HD HDR production, with support for HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma).
Big on picture quality and performance
The HXC-FB80 offers impressive imaging performance and functionality in a portable camera. It’s an ideal partner for our RCP-1000 series remote control panels – or team with our HZC-RCP5 remote control software for a highly convenient live 5-camera system. You’ll enjoy many advanced features like paint control that are familiar to users of our high-end HDC-series system cameras. And it’s also compatible with appealing options like our latest OLED viewfinders.
Great images in any light
Incorporating three 2/3-inch Exmor CMOS sensors, the HXC-FB80 offers stunning Full HD picture quality, with a sensitivity of F13 at 1080/50i and a corresponding signal-to-noise ratio of just -60 dB. It’s great for shooting in low light environments, delivering extra detail with extremely low noise.
More format flexibility
The camera head can comfortably output 3G-SDI signals in a range of formats right up to 1080/50p, with 4K available via the CCU’s 12G-SDI and Quad 3G-SDI interfaces. So you can enjoy maximum production convenience – and your viewers can enjoy the best Full HD picture quality.
Features
Full HD Exmor CMOS sensors
Incorporating three 2/3-inch Exmor CMOS sensors, the HXC-FB80 offers stunning full-HD picture quality and sensitivity of F13 in 50 Hz and F12 in 59.94 Hz at 1080 mode with a signal-to-noise ratio of -60 dB. These features enhance shooting in a low light environment.
3G-SDI Platform Capable of 1080/50p and 59.94p
The camera head can comfortably output 3G-SDI signals including 1080/50p and 59.94p. The new processor can also support 1080/23.98 PsF on top of 25 PsF and 29.97 PsF.
Future-Proof 4K Upscalable and HD HDR Support with CCU
Combined with the HXCU-FB80 CCU, this camera’s output is 4K upscalable and yet HD HDR-capable supporting HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma).*
* Requires firmware upgrade available in 2018
PC-RCP (HZC-RCP5)
In addition to hardware-based remote control units, PC software-based HZC-RCP5 Remote Control is also available.
MCS (Multi Camera System) capabilities
The HXCU-FB80 CCU provides support for up to 24 units, forming a complete MCS system.
Long Cable Extension and Choice of Fibre Interface
Using a hybrid cable with a power supply, the distance between the camera head and CCU can be extended up to 600 m. In case of the combination with HXC-P70, it can extend up to 1,000 m. In addition to the Neutrik connector interface, a LEMO connector interface is also available for the camera head and CCU. In the case of connection with a single-mode fibre cable (SMF), transmission can extend up to 10km using a local power supply.
Wide range of image control functions
The system camera is full of creative image control functions such as MultiMatrix, Skin Tone Detail, Low Key Saturation, Knee Saturation, and Auto Lens Aberration Compensation (ALAC).
ND Filter by Servo Motor
Along with an electrical CC filter, the ND filter can be remotely controlled either by external RCP/RM or via the CCU because of the newly adopted filter servo motor in the camera head.
HD Video Trunk and HD Prompter
In addition to the camera captured 1080 50i/59.94i video signal, another video signal can be passed through the same fibre connection line to the CCU side because of the 3G-SDI platform. Further to the traditional analogue composite prompter support, the HD-SDI signal can be supplied from the CCU side.
