Videosys Broadcast, a manufacturer and supplier of quality camera control systems, RF links and camera backs to outside broadcast (OB) providers, has introduced a range of new features for its camera control products including its flagship Epsilon 4K base station Camera Control Unit (CCU).
Revealing that this came from listening to customer feedback, Colin Tomlin, Managing Director, Videosys Broadcast, said, “We often implement customer suggested features and improvements, dramatically speeding up their production workflows.
“Customer demand was a key reason why Videosys Broadcast integrated TSL TallyMan protocols into its camera control systems, supporting both tally and UMD data.”
Videosys has also introduced remote control of the AEON-CC and STX-CC transmitters via the web GUI on the IDU and the Epsilon Radio Camera Systems. This innovation significantly expands Videosys remote control capabilities and ease of use. Users can now remotely control key functions such as transmit frequencies from the comfort of their Master Control Room or OB van.
Arnold Roozenburg, Sales & Marketing Director, Videosys Broadcast, said, “TX control gives users the ability to access status information directly from the transmitter on the IDU or Epsilon control panel and change features such as videolink frequency and power output control remotely.”
Videosys is also offering uni- and bi-directional Ethernet control for Sony’s FX9 cameras. Due to its compact design and use of prime lenses, this camera has enjoyed widespread use in light entertainment and sport applications. With this addition to the Videosys camera control, users can realise full control of the FX9 in a radio-camera operational mode.
