ES Broadcast Invest In Fujinon Lenses
ES Broadcast are to become the first rental house in Europe to provide Fuji's first live production 4K lenses – the Fujinon UA80x9 and UA22x8. A total of 13 units of each lens has been purchased.
Fuji's UA80 has an 80x zoom for use with 4K cameras in live coverage of sporting events and concerts. Launched in July, the UA80 is a zoom lens which covers a range of focal lengths from 9mm in wide angle to 720mm in telephoto. It also features an optical stabilization mechanism to provides optimum adjustment to image shakes caused by vibrations and wind.
Fujinon UA22 is a portable broadcast zoom lens with optical performance compatible with 4K cameras. It is a 22x zoom lens, starting from 8mm on the wide angle side, delivering an advanced level of mobility at the frontline of TV Production.
Edward Saunders and Warren Taggart, owners of ES Broadcast Hire, said "We're very excited about the increase in demand for 4K/UHD production. We have chosen now as the time to invest as the first rental company in Europe. Lenses are just the 1st step on this tooling up of ES Broadcast Hire."
The 26 lenses are due to be delivered at the end of September.
