Next generation imaging

Capture premium pictures with the world’s first 2/3-inch CMOS sensor with global shutter technology that eliminates the ‘jello effect’ and banding noise. This allows the HDC-3170 to capture pristine images with low noise and excellent sensitivity (F12 at 1080/59.94p or F13 at 1080/50p).

More format flexibility (4K/HD)

The HDC-3170 can output 3G-SDI signals in a range of formats right up to 1080/50p, with 4K available via the CCU’s 12G-SDI and Quad 3G-SDI interfaces. So you can benefit from maximum production convenience – and your viewers can enjoy premium picture quality.

Next-generation digital triax transmission
