Panasonic AK-PLV100GSJ 4K 35mm CINELIVE Studio Camera
4K PL-mount Studio Camera for Live Cinematic Video with Shallow Depth of Field
Large Format Sensor and PL Mount for Various Expression
This 4K studio camera from Panasonic is equipped with a 5.7K Super 35mm sensor and PL mount, inheriting the design concept of our VariCam camera, allowing for powerfully expressive live cinematic video closer to creator’s intention with a shallow depth of field.
Simple IP-based Live Production without CCU
SMPTE ST2110 input/output is possible directly from the AK-PLV100GSJ camera head without connecting to a CCU, enabling IP-based live production with just the camera, doing away with the need for complicated systems. It is also possible to output 12G-SDI signals directly from the camera head, allowing for flexible system construction and wide-ranging operations.
Camera Head Can be Switched Anytime to Capture What you Want
The camera head is fully compatible with equipment in Panasonic’s 2/3-inch studio-camera system. By simply replacing the existing camera head with the AK-PLV100GSJ, cinematic video can be created with the existing CCU (AK-UCU600 or AK-HCU250).
Simple Operation without CCU
Normally, live production with a cinema camera requires the use of many external devices, but with the AK-PLV100GSJ, only the camera is needed to build a system. The AK-PLV100GSJ outputs SMPTE ST2110 video directly from its camera head and merely requires an optical-fiber connection for return input, intercom input/output, PTP synchronization, trunk out, and tally input.
Input/output method for camera head alone
HD mode: Uncompressed SMPTE ST2110 input/output standard 4K mode: SMPTE ST2110 output with JPEG-XS compression standard 12G-SDI output standard
Compatible with 2/3-inch Studio Camera Equipment
Compatibility with Panasonic’s 2/3-inch studio-camera system equipment allows the use of CCUs, ROPs and other accessories. Under this new concept for live production, the camera head is selected according to the desired expression.
