Sales Information

Designed for the Field, Studio & Today's Challenging Production Economy

The AK-UC3000 studio camera is yet another Panasonic innovation in broadcast technology. Users can operate the camera in both 4K and HD modes. In HD mode the AK-UC3000 produces HD images with high sensitivity and low noise. While including functions appreciated in the conventional model such as DRS and CineGamma, the AK-UC3000 Series adds new features such as focus assist, flash band compensation, and skew reduction, which is realized through high-speed scan from the MOS sensor. There are additional functions to improve shooting experience including enhanced shock less gain (-6 dB to 36 dB), a user gamma function, black gamma correction according to the pedestal setting, multi-step DNR, and easy matrix adjustment. AK-UC3000 Series achieves excellent image quality and operability.

The Full System

When paired with the AK-UCU500 Camera Control Unit, the AK-UC3000 is capable of 4K HDR production and uncompressed long-distance transmission. Also available to use alongside this product is the AK-HRP1000/Ak-HRP1005 Remote Operation Panel, equipped with a color LCD to provide visibility of the display for smooth control. The camera and camera control unit can be connected for an approximately 2,000-meter long-distance transmission of video signals when power is supplied from the camera control unit. The remote operation panel and the camera can be connected using a dedicated cable. The AK-HVF100 9" LCD color viewfinder has also been newly developed, equipped with a large display and diverse functions such as focus assist. Overall, this system offers superior cost performance with respect to both operability and ease of use.

Additional Key Features

Supports standard dynamic range (SDR) and High dynamic range (HDR) acquisition simultaneously via hybrid log gamma (HLG) output options
Delivers high sense sensitivity of F10 (59.94Hz), F11 (50Hz)
Equipped with a CAC (Chromatic Aberration Compensation) function capable of correcting even slight chromatic aberration at the lens periphery
The DRS (Dynamic Range Stretch) function suppresses blocked shadows and blown highlights. Black gamma function for independent color settings in dark areas
The V-REC, F-REC function provides powerful support in digital cinema production.
Features an internal digital extender (x2 magnification)
12-axis color correction, detail, skin tone detail (two-tone axis) and easy matrix adjustment
