Atlantic Video upgrades facility with Canon HD lenses
Sep 22, 2003 12:00 PM
The first commercial HD studio facility in Manhattan, New York, is
now equipped with Canon HDxs lenses.
Atlantic Video is outfitting the Canon
XJ25x6.8B IE-D lens in its facility at the Manhattan Center in New
York.
Atlantic Video at the Manhattan Center now has four DIGI SUPER
XJ25x6.8B IE-D and HJ16x8B IRSD lenses installed at its facility.
With Canon's DIGI SUPER 25XS, Atlantic Video is outfitting with a
studio lens that uses Canon's HDxs system to achieve the high optical
performance of HDTV, increase the zoom ratio to 25x, and improve the
wide angle to 6.8mm while still maintaining the size equivalent to that
of current SDTV lenses. The new generation digital servo system has
several new functions including constant angle of view while focusing
(CAFS) and the selection of different servo characteristics by
memory.
The Canon HJ16x8 IRSD is designed with Canon's HDxs, which enables
specifications in a small-sized, lightweight configuration. Creative
options and control are also increased with Canon's Digital Drive
system of useful digital controls, including Speed Preset, Shuttle
Shot, Framing Preset and Zoom Mode Select. All lenses will be affixed
to Ikegami cameras.
