HD/SD System Camera HXC-D70

Opening a New World of HD Production

Sony introduces an ideal solution for HD/SD small studio operations

with the HXC-D70 Full HD System Camera, HXCU-D70 Camera Control

Unit (CCU), and DXF-C50WA 5-inch Color LCD Viewfinder.

The newly developed HXC-D70 is a high-performance camera which

inherits field-proven operability from the highly regarded DXC-D Series

of system cameras.

The HXC-D70 is equipped with the latest digital HD multi-core cable

transmission technology, which allows the camera to be configured

with the newly developed HXCU-D70 CCU.

Furthermore, the existing CCU-D50 CCU can also be used with the

HXC-D70 for migration from SD to HD live production.

Excellent Picture Quality

Three Exmor® full-HD CMOS sensors

All of these excellent features result in high-quality
digital signals with extremely low noise. This

The HXC-D70 is equipped with three 2/3-inch-type
Exmor CMOS sensors, which deliver superb picture
performance with full-HD resolution.

Due to Sony’s advanced sensor technologies, this
imager provides a brilliant sensitivity (F12 for 1920 x
1080/59.94i mode, F13 for 1920 x 1080/50i mode), a

significantly enhances shooting in low-light
environments.

In addition to the camera’s high performance, a wide
range of output formats are available including
1080i/50, 1080i/59.94, 720p/50, 720p/59.94, 576i/50,
and 480i/59.94.

Variety of Picture Adjustment Functions

Skin-tone detail

This function allows adjustment (emphasis or
suppression) of the detail level for a specific hue or
chroma area in the image, such as human skin tones.

Selection of multiple gamma tables

Seven types of standard and four types of hyper
gamma table are featured. The hyper gamma values
enable cinema-like image creation with wide
dynamic range.

Knee saturation

Hue and chroma in highlighted areas can be
adjusted to reproduce natural human skin tones
under strong lighting.

System Versatility

The HXC-D70 can be remotely controlled from the
HXCU-D70 Camera Control Unit using a standard multi­core cable.

With Sony’s newly developed signal transmission
technologies, HD signals, electrical power, and
communication signals can be transferred via a single
multi-core cable.
