Mediapro Delivers El Clásico Game In UHD

Mediapro has produced the first match between Madrid and FC Barcelona in Ultra-High Definition. The game was produced in UHD using 10 Panasonic AK-UC3000 cameras, which supplied 4K and HD signals simultaneously. The game was also produced in HD, the signal was distributed to 170 countries and an estimated audience of 600 million viewers.

Prior to El Clásico, Mediapro conducted a quality and functionality test on UHD cameras during the Liga Adelante game between Leganés and Alcorcón. Having analysed the various options for latest-generation UHD studio cameras, Mediapro opted to equip its new mobile unit with Panasonic UC3000 cameras. The UC3000 provides 4K image quality and supports the technological leap that Panasonic has wanted to make in the field of broadcast studio equipment.

The UC3000 is small in size and is compatible with B4 mount lenses. It features a balance between the various image quality parameters: high sensitivity, signal-to-noise ratio, high resolution, and a large dynamic range.
