Panasonic AK-HC5000GSJ HD Studio Camera Head with LEMO CCU Connector

AK-HC5000 HD Studio Camera allows for superior 1080p video & 4x high-speed shooting for vivid imaging for capturing exciting moments in sports and events.

1080p 4x High-speed Shooting Included as Standard Function*

The AK-HC5000 camera system has a high-speed shooting function that adds rich expressions to video content production. High speed shooting at up to 240 fps is achieved with four interleaved 1080p 3G SDI outputs, compatible with leading slow motion playback servers.
* To obtain the 1/4 slow effect, a device to separately record 1080/239.76p, 200p is necessary.

Newly Developed 2/3-Type MOS Sensor

High-image-quality video production is realized with the newly developed 2/3-type MOS sensor.

Skew Reduction Realized through High-speed Scans

Building on the knowhow accumulated in Panasonic's ENG camera experience, the skewing characteristic of MOS sensors has been reduced by reading out the MOS sensor signal at high speed.

Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC)

This exclusive technology utilizes communication between the lens and camera to deploy for a sophisticated algorithm that will automatically compensate for the registration error caused by lens chromatic aberration, and minimize the circumjacent blur.*

Dynamic Range Stretch (DRS) Function

The DRS function automatically suppresses blocked shadows and blown highlights. When dark and bright areas are mixed in the same scene, such as when looking outside from indoors, DRS can maintain a high level of gradation expression in dark, bright, and intermediate tones, thereby minimizing blocked shadows, blown highlights, and washed out colours. This makes it possible to obtain visually wide dynamic range video in real time.

Selectable Gamma Curves

In addition to the Film Rec Gamma functions (V-REC, F-REC) supporting digital film production, you can select the Filmlike 1/2/3 modes. They produce natural gradations and rich colour reproduction with a film-like quality.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Compatibility

This mode enables the camera to apply an alternative optical electro transfer function (OETF) to selected camera outputs so that the camera can provide a high dynamic range (HDR) image for capable displays or function in a complete HDR live broadcast system. HDR displays use their increased brightness and contrast capabilities to take advantage of the cameras full dynamic range to deliver compelling high contrast images with very bright highlights.

Shockless Gain

It is possible to smoothly transition the image changes that occur when gain is changed. In addition, with the 0.1 dB step master gain adjustment function, you can fine tune the adjustments to match the scene being shot.

Servo control ND / CC Filters

The cameras are equipped with filters for a variety of shooting environments.

[ND filters] CAP, Through, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64
[CC filters] Cross, 3200 K, 4300 K, 6300 K, Diffusion
