Canal Sur trusts Fujinon to renew its optics

Andalusian public radio and television Channel On trust Fujinon to renew the optics in the program production studio of the Isla de la Cartuja Pavilion (Seville), as well as the UMD-D2 and D3 mobile units.

Andalusian radio and television thus joins the group of regional television stations (such as the Basque EiTB, the Asturian RTPA, the Balearic IB3 and the Valencian À Punt), which have migrated to the 4K system relying on Fujinon technology.

"For the correct provision of the entrusted public service, CSRTV needed to renew its image capture systems. And with this investment, the camera optics of the Cartuja Pavilion studio and partially those corresponding to mobile units are completely renewed, thus improving the quality of image capture and also being prepared for UHD production," they explain from the technical department of Canal Sur.

Fujifilm has supplied 20 units Fujinon UA23x7.6BERD-S10; 5 units Fujinon UA14x4.5BERD-S10, with premier range 4K wide-angle optics. All of them with their corresponding kits de control SS-15DB Full digital servo for zoom and focus control. As well as 4 others kits de control SS-21DC for large format optics owned by CSRTV.

Both models of optics incorporate the new S10 grip, which enables lag-free zoom and focus response during pan and tilt operations, with a fast and precise movement, to accurately capture a fast-moving subject; as well as ultra-slow and smooth movements, to offer expressive videos. Furthermore, it incorporates the new función BCT (breathing compensation technology), which reduces the breathing of the optics to a minimum and allows new creative effects, similar to the world of cinematography, that help improve the storytelling of the news.
