Marshall Electronics To Unveil New UHD Compact Camera

Marshall Electronics is to unveil its new ultra-high-definition (UHD) compact camera at the 2018 IBC Show.

The Marshall CV380-CS uses an 8.5-Megapixel, 1/2.5-inch sensor, to capture detailed video images, and outputs in 6G/3G/HD-SDI and HDMI 1.4.

"Releasing an affordable, compact UHD camera further expands our camera reach for more broadcast and pro-AV applications," said Todd Musgrave, Director of Cameras at Marshall. "With 6G-SDI and HDMI outputs and flexible CS mount lens options, this new camera provides even more versatility to our users."

The CV380-CS is designed for any point-of-view (POV) camera application where a small, miniature camera can fit into unique locations for compelling angles and viewpoints. The CV380-CS has a varifocal or fixed CS/C lens mount with DC Auto-Iris capability and can accept a range of interchangeable lenses for enhanced customisation.

It is among the first additions to Marshall's latest generation of compact and miniature cameras utilising a fully redesigned body style and form factor. Special attention has been given to enhance durability in the field with the addition of new structural 'wings', designed to give greater protection to rear connectors during use.

The CV380-CS offers three resolution modes with the following frame rate settings:

• UHD (3840x2160p) at 25, 29.97, and 24 fps
• Progressive HD (1080p and 720p) at 50, 59.94, 25, 29.97, and 24 fps
• Interlaced HD (1080i) at 50, 59.94, and 60 fps.

The CV380-CS features professional picture settings including white balance, gamma, gain, pedestal and digital zoom, and can be remotely matched and adjusted using RS485 (Visca). The CV380-CS is targeted for use in broadcast, live sports, reality television, as well as Pro AV applications including education, corporate communications, presentations and more.

The CV380-CS will debut at IBC 2018, 14-18 September, in Amsterdam, at booth 12.D20.
