Lyon Video Purchases FUJINON XA99x8.4 Ultra-Wide Lenses

Columbus, OH-based Lyon Video has acquired six FUJINON XA99x8.4 ultra-wide field production lenses for the Grass Valley LDX80 Worldcam cameras on its Lyon 14 mobile unit.

The XA99x8.4 features a zoom range of 99x, a focal length of 8.4 to 832mm, and MOD of 2.9m. It features new image stabilisation technology for long-distance HD shots. High-resolution 16-bit encoders are standard, making it suitable to virtual, robotic and digital signage, among other applications.

Lyon Video also recently purchased six HA18x5.5 HD zooms for Lyon 14, 12, and eight for use on Grass Valley LDX80 cameras. The Premier Series HA18x5.5 offers 18x zoom from 5.5mm at the wide angle to 100mm on the telephoto end to capture images for a versatile range of scenes.

Lyon Video President Bob Lyon said: "Our client response to this lens has been dramatic and fantastic. It’s a great balance of wide and magnification that has been missing from the high-end handheld lens marketplace. We like how the 99x and the new 18x5.5mm lenses fit into our equipment line up on all of our mobile units."

Lyon Video has an extensive FUJINON lens equipment arsenal, including 10 XA101x8.9BESM Super telephoto lenses, six FUJINON XA99x8.4BESM. and 16 FUJINON XA88x8.8BESM Telephoto HD field lenses.
