About Sony HDC1700L

Make your video production stand out with the HDC1700L Multiformat Camera System, a high-quality, professional-grade camera that boasts a 2/3" CCD image sensor and 1080p resolution. This advanced camera system delivers superior image quality, thanks to its newly developed digital signal processor (DSP) LSI that ensures exceptional S/N levels and enhanced functionality.

Experience optimal visual imagery and improved black reproduction with the camera's 16-bit A/D converter. The HDC1700L is designed to perform even in challenging lighting conditions, courtesy of its Adaptive Matrix function. This innovative feature enables the reproduction of well-balanced details in strong monochromatic light conditions, such as those encountered at stage events.

The HDC1700L camera system also features an Auto Lens Chromatic Aberration Compensation (ALAC-2), a sophisticated function that automatically compensates for lens chromatic aberration in both horizontal and vertical directions. This feature requires lenses that correspond to the ALAC feature.

Expand your shooting capabilities with the HDC1700L's range of optional accessories, including the HKC-DF20 Dual Optical Filter Unit and HZC-PSF20 Signal Format Software. These options support a variety of shooting scenes and requirements, making this camera system a versatile choice for professionals.

The HDC1700L also includes a MEMS-Acceleration Sensor, which displays the horizontal level on the viewfinder screen, a feature that proves particularly useful for wide-angle shooting. For applications requiring a large studio lens, optional HDLA-1500, HDLA-1505, and HDLA-1507 adaptors are available to maximize the operability of the HDC1700L. These adaptors facilitate simple connectivity without the need for time-consuming wiring and adjustments.

The HDC1700L is capable of long-distance signal transmission up to 2,000 meters when used in combination with the HDCU-1700 Camera Control Unit. The HDCU-1700 is a 19-inch half-rack size portable CCU for fiber cable connection, capable of controlling camera menu settings and displaying fiber condition on the front panel. It also features an expansion slot for the four HD/SD SDI outputs board and an option board slot for HKCU option cards to expand the CCUs output capability to include VBS out, PIX out, WFM out, and component video out.

In conclusion, the HDC1700L Multiformat Camera System is a sophisticated, high-definition camera system designed for professional video recording and production. Its high-quality interchangeable lenses, advanced features, and optional accessories make it a versatile choice for a range of settings, from live events and news gathering to documentary filmmaking.
