LRDiff (LR difference display):
The luminance components of the L ch and R ch images are compared, and
the difference between them is displayed using a gray scale. Using the R ch
image as the reference, the parts of the L ch image with a higher luminance
are displayed brightly while the parts of the same image with a lower
luminance are displayed dimly. Parts where the luminance of the L ch and

The 3D video and 3D video signal status monitor can be displayed together in PGM output and PVW output of the multi-view display
(1/4 size only), enabling smoother 3D switching while checking the “protrusion” and “depth” differences between PGM and PVW.
Additionally, this screen can be fed back to the camera side, and adjustments such as the brightness and horizontal/vertical positioning
correction can be easily applied. These functions may be particularly useful when used to provide visual feedback to camera and rig operators.

Features a versatile MultiViewer display function.
The compact body is also equipped with a wide range of
robust functions.
Compact Live Switcher
Comes with 5 inputs and 3 outputs as standard.
Ideal for HD production environments in a host of applications.
An 1 M/E digital video switcher embedded with 4 SDI inputs, 1 DVI-D input,
2 SDI outputs and 1 DVI-D output that supports multiple HD/SD formats.
By combining with HD integrated camera AW-HE50S or remote camera
controller AW-RP50, the switcher helps save space and realizes a low-cost
HD production environment.
A compact, high-performance model suitable
for various business needs.
Auditoriums /
Legislative halls
TV conferencing
Up to 10 channels may be displayed on a single display.
An enhanced MultiViewer display function comes as standard.
The built-in MultiViewer display function can
simultaneously display various images including
program (PGM), preview (PVW) and input signals
on a single monitor. The screen may be split into
4, 5a/5b, 6a/6b, 9 and 10a/10b sections.
Equipped with Audio Level Meter
display function.
This function displays the level of the embedded audio signals
(group 1/1ch, 2ch) superimposed on the SDI input signal.

*
(AW-HE50S) with the remote camera controller (AW-RP50) via IP
.
The AW-HE50S camera setting information (iris, gain, etc.) obtained by the remote
camera controller AW-RP50 can be displayed on the AUX output or on the split
screens of the MultiViewer display. The switcher and remote camera controller
combination realizes smooth operation by enabling switcher's ON AIR tally
information to be sent to the AW-RP50 and bus images to be changed*
to the camera selection.
1 Only 1 AW-RP50 may be connected to the switcher via an IP connection.
