Marshall Electronics To Premiere New 4K Camera At IBC

Marshall Electronics is to premiere its new compact true 4K camera at IBC 2018 in Amsterdam.

The Marshall CV420-CS is built around a 12.4-Megapixel, 1/1.7-inch sensor, and delivers crisp, clear 4096x2160p video with vibrant colours and fast frame rates.

It has outputs of 12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI and HDMI 2.0, and a Varifocal or Fixed CS/C lens mount capability with DC Auto-Iris plug-in for custom lens adaptions.

The CV420-CS offers the following resolution modes and frame rate settings (industry standard for US broadcast, PAL, NTSC and cinematic 24 fps):

• True 4K (4096x2160p) at 50, 59.94, 60, 25, 29.97, 30, and 24 fps.
• UHD (3840x2160p) at 50, 59.94, 60, 25, 29.97, 30, and 24 fps.
• Interlaced HD (1920x1080i) at 50, 59.94, and 60 fps.
• Progressive HD (1080p and 720p) at 50, 59.94, 25, 29.97, and 24 fps.

Remote control for the CV420-CS is operated by RS485 (Visca) or OSD menu joystick, and a wide range of picture adjustment settings are available such as Paint (Red/Blue), White Balance, Gain, Pedestal (blacks), Gamma, Shutter and more. The CV420-CS can capture detailed shots while maintaining a discrete presence and can be used as a fixed "e-PTZ" camera, where select windows of the image can be zoomed and panned within the frame.

"Releasing an affordable true 4096 x 2160p camera further expands our reach to cinematic and film production," said Tod Musgrave, Director of Cameras at Marshall. "Additionally, we were able to cater to our broadcast customers with the addition of 24fps, which has been requested for some time now.”

The CV420-CS is suitable for use in live events, where large projection screens require true 4K resolution image capture, as well as film production, sports broadcasting, reality TV shoots and more.

It will be on display at Marshall Electronics Booth #12.D20 at IBC 2018, 14-18 September, in Amsterdam.
