KOKUSAI DENKI Electric America To Unveil New 4K Camera

KOKUSAI DENKI Electric America is to unveil a new 4K camera at NAB New York this week, adding a third 4K model to its product line.

Now available, the Z-HD6500-S1 UHD/HD production system opens the 4K production universe to a broader customer base as a professional yet cost-efficient option aligned with most budgets.

The Z-HD6500-S1 is based on proven technology and professional engineering from KOKUSAI DENKI. The camera borrows design elements from the popular Z-HD6500 multi-format HD camera, and has been reinvented as a full-featured native 4K camera. It includes the same 2/3-inch UHD-native sensors as KOKUSAI DENKI's high-end SK-UHD7000, ensuring uniform image quality across different production environments. Its RGB 3-chip technology, with 8.3 million effective pixels per sensor, resulting in sharp, vibrant images with minimal noise, outstanding color fidelity and remarkable sensitivity.

The Z-HD6500-S1 incorporates native 4K global shutter technology to eliminate artifacts such as banding and flickering, optimizing performance within houses of worship, event centers, and broadcast studios utilizing LED lighting and displays. High sensitivity and a strong signal-to-noise ratio strengthen reliability, ensuring high-quality video capture in low-light conditions as well as ultra-quiet images. The feature set also includes a ¼ ND filter for shallow depth shooting, and a low-pass filter to reduce visual patterns or optical illusions known as Moire effects.

NAB New York opens tomorrow at the Jacob Javits Center and runs through Thursday. KOKUSAI DENKI exhibits at Booth 720.
