Sony BVP-T70 Camera

Broadcast/Production Camera

It employs a new FIT Hyper HAD CCD imager. Improved dynamic range and lower noise expand picture-making capabilities. Increased control over image enhancement allows picture sharpness to be optimised for all forms of scene content. More flexible control of overexposed pictures allows for creative and artistic adjustments.

This is the perfect camera for productions that plan for the new DTV era: for news gathering and documentaries, it makes superb pictures in low light, and for production it combines this same high quality picture capture with an extended range of creative video controls.
