Sony HSC-100R HD/SD Digital Triax Broadcast Camera

$8,900.00

The Sony HSC-100R Digital Triax Broadcast Camera is a versatile HD/SD unit featuring a digital triax CCU input, designed to seamlessly integrate with traditional triax infrastructures for easy system upgrades. It supports cable lengths up to 3,937 ft to an optional CCU. Equipped with a 2/3" CCD sensor, the camera delivers F10 sensitivity at 1080i59.94 and F11 at 1080i50, maintaining a -60dB signal-to-noise ratio. It records in 720p and 1080PsF formats, with high-quality SD down-conversion. Optional HZC-PSF3 software enables 1080/29.97PsF/25PsF recording. The Sony Bayonet mount supports various lenses, while inputs and outputs include XLR audio and mic, HD/SD-SDI out, VF and return signals, SDI prompter/genlock/return inputs, and XLR intercom. Integrated electronic color correction and four ND filters enhance image control.

Multi-format operation
A wide range of capturing modes are available including 1080/29.97PsF* and
1080/25PsF*1 as well as 1080/50i, 1080/59.94i, 720/50p, 720/59.94p, 576/50i, and
480/59.94i.
* Optional HZC-PSF3 software is required.
Sophisticated 2/3-inch CCDs
The HSC Series camera is equipped with field-proven 2/3-inch type full-resolution 1920 x 1080 CCDs. Due to Sony’s advanced sensor technologies, the CCD imager offers a high sensitivity of F10 for 59.94 Hz and F11 for 50 Hz with a remarkable signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of -60 dB (HD) for high-quality pictures in all kinds of demanding shooting environments.
High-quality 16-bit A/D conversion and DSP LSI
The HSC Series camera incorporates a high-performance 16-bit A/D converter with the latest technologies that enables captured images to be processed with maximum precision. Also, the Auto Lens Aberration Compensation function can optimize lens performance to provide stunning picture quality.
Digital Extender function
Digital Extender function expands the size of the image by a factor of 2 in the center of captured images by the image sensor. This function works without decrease in sensitivity, such as F-number drop, which occurs by the use of conventional optical
extender functions.
Auto Lens Aberration Compensation 2 (ALAC2) function
The ALAC2 function automatically reduces lens chromatic aberration by both horizontal and vertical compensation when a lens supporting ALAC2 function is
attached.

About the Sony HSC-100R HD/SD Digital Triax Broadcast Camera

The Sony HSC-100R is a versatile high-definition digital camera system engineered for live broadcast and outdoor electronic field production. Operating as a system camera, it combines a compact remote camera head with a separate base station connected via a triax cable, enabling camera control and signal transmission over extremely long distances—up to several thousand feet. This configuration is ideal for applications where the camera must be placed in inaccessible or hazardous locations, such as on stadium sidelines, mounted to a race car, or in confined studio rigging, while the operator remains at a centralized production truck or control room.

The camera head is built for durability and flexibility in challenging environments, featuring a 2/3-inch type three CMOS sensor system that provides full HD resolution, excellent sensitivity, and low noise. It offers native support for both high-definition and standard-definition video formats, ensuring backward compatibility with existing infrastructure. The system's triax technology carries camera power, bidirectional intercom, multiple return video feeds, and telemetry data for lens and camera control, all through a single, robust cable, significantly simplifying setup and enhancing operational reliability in fast-paced live events.

Interfacing with the camera head is the compact CCU (Camera Control Unit) base station, which provides comprehensive remote adjustment of all critical parameters including paint settings, gamma curves, and detailed image profiling. The system supports popular video outputs like 3G-SDI and is designed for seamless integration into large-scale broadcast workflows. The Sony HSC-100R delivers the image quality, operational flexibility, and ruggedness required for demanding outside broadcasts, sports productions, and live event coverage where remote camera operation is a necessity.
