Do you want to transcend the limits of SDI?
Here is your opportunity to slash construction costs, cut travel costs, cover more events, and accommodate 4K. IP Live is transforming the economics of sports OB vans as it replaces SDI interconnects. As just one example, you can broadcast a game where only the camera crew and talent need go on-location, and everyone else stays back in the studio. The potential is vast.
Technologies that transform the image
Bring your audience closer to the action than ever before. Deliver the detail of 4K Ultra HD. Excite viewers with the depth and realism of High Dynamic Range. Also captivate fans with the balletic sports replays of High Frame Rates and 16x super-slow motion. We make it easy and cost-effective to originate simultaneous 4K/HDR and HD/SDR from a single live production system.
Is your on-air look due for an upgrade?
You’ve built your reputation on your on-air look. And your look depends on cameras. No wonder so many truck operators choose Sony. Our complete line serves every type of budget and every type of infrastructure from fiber to triax, from SDI to IP Live. Our cameras look to the future with 4K, HDR, and HFR capabilities. And all of our cameras have the reliability that’s deep in our DNA.
Do you need maximum replay versatility?
Remarkable cameras deserve equally remarkable super-slow motion replay servers. With our PWS-4500 and Share Play technology, a single operator can view, play back, and output clips recorded on up to twelve of our servers or storage processors. It’s a cost-effective way to share content and expand your super-slow motion coverage. And there are no laborious file transfers, just smooth, instant, unified control.
Is your switcher ready for 4K and IP?
Can a single production switcher originate simultaneous 4K and HD or accommodate both SDI and IP Live? Sony’s XVS switchers can. We deliver all the switching, keying, and effects you expect with configuration flexibility that’s far beyond the ordinary. You can also tailor the modular control surface to your exact needs.
The definitive broadcast monitors
Which monitors deliver the most accurate rendition of your broadcast picture? And which are best for everyday picture monitoring? In both cases, the answer is Sony. Broadcasters the world over depend on the image color accuracy and stability of our 4K TRIMASTER EL® and TRIMASTER HX® reference monitors. While our other BVM, PVM, and LMD monitors deliver the optimum performance and confidence at every level of production.
