Canon announces 4K Remote Camera CR-X300 for outdoor video production | Video Salon

Canon will launch a 4K remote camera "CR-X300" for outdoors as a new product of a remote camera system for video production that realizes remote production by IP in mid-February 2022.The price is open, and the expected market price is 1,485,000 yen (tax included).

"CR-X300" has a variety of communication standards and high environmental performance, so PTZ (bread, tilt, zoom compatible) suitable for various shooting outdoors such as sports broadcasts, wild animals, theme parks, and event venues.Remote camera.

1/2.Equipped with key devices that make use of video processing technology cultivated in commercial video cameras, such as type 3 CMOS sensor and video processing platform "DIGIC DV6", 4K / 30P / 4: 2: 2 /10 -bit high -quality video.Shooting is possible.Also, about 29 focal length.Equipped with an optical 20-fold zoom lens equivalent to 3mm-601mm, it is possible to shoot in a wide range of scenes from wide-angle to super telephoto.

Compatible with "XC protocol" that controls Canon video production equipment.It can be controlled with a dedicated controller or PC software with multiple cameras, such as Cinema EossyStem cameras and indoor remote cameras "CR-N500 / CR-N300".In addition, it supports the "RTMP" that can be streaming distribution and "NDI | HX", which supports live video production, and can build a system flexibly according to the production environment.

It has achieved dust -proof and drip -proof performance of the IP65 -class "IP65" protection class defined by the International Electric Standard Meeting.It also supports outdoor installation environments exposed to strong winds and wind and rain, such as the standard equipment of the wiper and the adoption of aluminum die -cast that is resistant to corrosion.In addition, it is compatible with "PoE ++", and power supply and camera control can be performed with one LAN cable.

The body size is about 217 (width) x 217 (depth) x 311 (height) mm, and a small and lightweight design with a mass of about 7 kg.

・ Focal length about 29.Equipped with an optical 20-fold zoom lens equivalent to 3mm-601mm, it is possible to shoot in a wide range of scenes from wide-angle to super telephoto.

▲ Examples (when shooting at 1)

▲ Examples (10x optical zoom)

▲ Examples (20x optical zoom)

・ Compatible with "Over Sampling HD Processing", which can generate high -quality full HD videos from 4K data.

・ In addition to the “Standard IS” that corrects the 4 -axis camera shake of up, down, left and right / vertical rotation / horizontal rotation correction, “Powered IS” with a stronger correction effect.Suitable for large blurring corrections such as telephoto shooting.

・ Equipped with a “hybrid AF” that combines the contrast AF and the phase difference AF.Realizes high -speed and high -precision AF.

・ The same image quality setting as the commercial video camera is adopted for the “custom picture” that can set the desired color and brightness in advance.Reproduces the unified colors and brightness even if the video switches when shooting with multiple cameras.

・ Equipped with an infrastral mode that allows infrared photography without using lighting or filter.Even during infrared shooting, it is possible to reduce the amount of light drop in the area around the screen and obtain bright images.

・ Equipped with an electric ND filter that automatically switches in response to changes in various brightness.

・ Close the aperture when adjusting the black balance, and supports the “Iriskrose” that creates a state that does not allow light.It is suitable for remote shooting without installation or removal of the lens cap required when shooting with a normal camera.

・ Compatible with "XC protocol" that controls Canon video production equipment.For serial connections that connect the device one-on-one, multiple cameras can be controlled with the remote controller "RC-IP100" or the "Remote Camera Control App" on a PC, making it efficient workflow / saving people.contribution.In addition, by combining multiple models compatible with "XC protocol" such as Cinema EOS System cameras and indoor remote cameras "CR-N500 / CR-N300", unified painting and operability in a wide range of outdoor / indoor scenes.Video production is possible under

・ Compatible with "RTMP", which can be streaming video/audio streaming.

・ Compatible with NDI | HX, which supports live video production.It can connect to his NDI compatible devices on the network, such as switchers and media servers, and supports efficient live video production.

・ Achieved dust -proof performance of the IP65 -based “IP65” protection grade and drip -proof performance determined by the International Electric Standard Meeting.It is equivalent to "Dust 3 Class 6th grade", which completely protects the invasion of powder, and "drip -proof performance 5th grade" that does not have a harmful effect on convergence from all directions.

・ Equipped with an electric wiper.Achieves good visibility even in rainy weather.

▲ Environmental resistance performance corresponding to outdoor shooting

・ Uses aluminum die -cast that is resistant to corrosion.The effect of aging is small, and it can be installed outdoors without having a housing case.

・ Compatible with Ethernet standard “PoE ++”, which can supply power and camera control with one LAN cable.Contributes to lines and cost reductions at the time of installation.

▲ Equipped with a large handle that is easy to carry with one hand.

・ It also supports ceiling hanging and can be attached to the ceiling.At the time of ceiling hanging shooting, it is not necessary to use the "video reversal function" to modify the heaven and earth.

・ Low -speed approximately 0.Equipped with a PT drive mechanism that can select multiple turning speeds from 3 °/second to the fastest about 60 °/second.

・ Equipped with a “synchronous PTZ” that can link the zoom drive at the same time as the PT drive.Supports various video production such as one -man operation.

・ Equipped with a “preset” that registers the shooting position and angle of view of one point selected.Regardless of the direction of the camera, bread, tilt, and zoom movement can be performed at the time/speed specified in the position/angle of view registered in "Preset".Up to 100 points can be registered in advance, and video production workflows are high -speed and efficient.
