Toshiba Imaging Systems Division has brought out two new camera control units (CCUs) that operate with the high-def IK-HD1 remote head.
The first of these, the IK-HD1D, features the same output as the original IK-HD1 model (1080i output via Y/Pb/Pr) but has an added DVI-I output on the rear panel.
This versatility allows customers to use cheaper consumer HD control panels that accept DVI and/or HDMI signals, rather than the more expensive HD-SDI panels.
Toshiba's second new model, the IK-HD1E CCU, complements the original IK-HD1 and the newest CCU model, the IK-HD1D.
The IK-HD1E CCU outputs HD-SDI and Y/Pb/Pr video signals in 50 and 60Hz.
This is ideal for clients with applications where 50Hz is standard.
