Ikegami at IBC2016
IBC2016 is a special event for Ikegami which this year celebrates its 70th anniversary...

F

ounded in September 1946,
Ikegami has a long history of
innovation. The company's focus at
IBC is very much on the television
production needs of today, both in HD
and 4K.
NEW: HDL-F3000 Multi-Format
Ultra-Low-Light Camera
Ikegami has chosen IBC2016 as the
launch venue for the revolutionary
HDL-F3000 multi-format ultra-lowlight camera. Capable of operating at
illumination levels down to starlight,
the HDL-F3000 produces high-quality
colour video under an extremely wide
range of night or daytime conditions.
Image adjustment capabilities include
haze removal, backlight correction and
digital zoom.
The camera head measures a
compact 100 x 123 x 80 mm (WHD)
and weighs only 1 kg, making it ideal
for a wide range of ground-based or
airborne gyro-mounted applications.
It employs three 2/3-inch 2.6 million
pixel MOS sensors in RGB prism
configuration to achieve 1,000
television lines horizontal resolution.
Minimum illumination level in
standard operating mode is 0.0068
lux delivering 64 dB signal to noise
ratio or higher in 1080/59.94i,
1080/50i,
1080/29.97psF,
1080/25psF, 720/59.94p, 720/50p.
With frame accumulation switched
on, the sensitivity can be increased to
0.000057 lux. Integration times are
selectable across an 11-position range
from two seconds to 1/30 second. A
BTA S-1005B detachable lens mount is
included.
The HDL-F3000 feeds a compact
control unit measuring 120 x 105
x 180 mm (WHD) and weighing
1.5 kg. This provides access to a
wide range of features including a
motorised optical neutral density filter

Ikegami UHK-430 4K-native
portable broadcast camera

Ikegami HDL-F3000 Multi Format Starlight Camera

(100/25/6,2/1.6%), electrical colour
filter
(3200/4300/6300/8000K),
adjustable gain (72 dB down to -6 dB),
adjustable gamma (off/0.35/0.4/0.45)
and x1.1 to x10 digital zoom. Shutter
speed can be selected in eight
increments from 1/100 and 1/10000.
NEW: Ikegami UHK-430 4K-Native
Portable Broadcast Camera
4K resolution and high dynamic
range have become important
issues throughout the broadcast
media industry as content producers
and delivery channels plan their
investment strategy for the coming
five to 10 years. The Ikegami UHK430 portable broadcast camera
incorporates three newly-developed
4K-native 2/3inch 8 megapixel CMOS
sensors which provide full 3840 x 2160
ultra-high-definition resolution, plus
the depth of field required for studio
and outdoor production. The camera
delivers four times more image detail
than high-definition and has a colour
depth of 10-bits per pixel instead of
the current limit of 8-bits per pixel.

The UHK-430 incorporates a B4
bayonet mount compatible with 2/3inch HD lenses.
Two-piece construction allows the
sensor and lens head to be detached
as a compact unit for easy deployment
on support devices such as long-reach
manually-controlled camera poles. In
this mode, the head can be operated
up to 50 metres from the camera
body. Supporting peripherals now
available or planned for the UHK-430
include a high frame-rate head, 4K
Super 35mm head, operating control
panels, viewfinders and base stations.
An optional SE-U430 expander
allows large studio or OB lenses to be
attached quickly to the camera for fast
and easy deployment.
At the heart of the UHK-430 is a new
processor, the AXII, reducing power
consumption and delivering a wide
range of features including 16-axis
colour correction and new focusassist for 4K and HD video modes.
The AXII also provides the processing
for Ikegami's newly developed i-Log
transfer characteristic which delivers
high contrast for a wider dynamic
range. This allows more image
information to be retained for greater
headroom and colour grading. The
ITU-R BT.2020 extended colour
space specification is supported
in 4K mode. BT. 709 colour
space is supported in both 4K
and HD modes.
NEW: Ikegami HQLM-3120W 31inch 4K Broadcast Quality Monitor
A major addition to the Ikegami
range of broadcast quality picture
monitors, the HQLM-3120W is designed

for use as a full 4K master reference
monitor in television production
studios, postproduction suites, master
control rooms and playout centres.
It employs a 31.1-inch pixel LEDilluminated LCD panel with full 4096 x
2160 resolution and 10-bit processing
depth. This has a wide viewing angle
allowing critical content evaluation
within horizontal or vertical viewing
angles of up to 178 degrees.
Other performance parameters
include high contrast ratio (1450:1)
and a wide colour gamut, meeting
the ITU-R BT.2020 standard specified
for broadcast quality programme
production
and
international
programme distribution.
A 4K signal source can be connected
to the HQLM-3120W via four 3G-SDI
inputs (square division or two-sample
interleave). Also provided are 12G-SDI
4K inputs plus a 3G/HD-SDI input and
an HDMI input.
In addition to its picture monitoring
capabilities, the HQLM-3120W is
equipped to operate as a waveform
monitor and vectorscope.
NEW: Ikegami MCP-300 Network
Master Control Panel
The MCP-300 is a newly designed
network master control panel for use
not only with Ikegami's conventional
ICCP control and Arcnet based control
but also under Ethernet based control.
It allows simultaneous master control
of up to 10 cameras. Up to 100 source
cameras can be selected (10 cameras x
10 groups). The MCP-300 also supports
Powering over Ethernet, so a separate
power supply is not necessary.
