When the Ikegami BSF-300 was first introduced, it revolutionized the broadcast industry with its cutting-edge technology. The camera's 3-tube color camera system, which used three separate image pickup tubes (one for each primary color), provided exceptional color accuracy and resolution. This innovative design allowed for a more precise and detailed image, setting a new standard for broadcast cameras.
is designed to bridge the gap between affordability and superior video performance. It allows for the transmission of high-definition digital signals over fiber optic cables between the camera head and the control room. Key Features
