The HDC-P50 is a light, compact Point of View (POV) system camera. Integrating seamlessly with existing HD infrastructure, lenses and accessories, it gives ambitious programme makers exciting new possibilities for creating HD, 4K HDR and HD HFR productions.

This light and compact POV system camera features the world’s first 2/3-inch 4K global shutter three CMOS sensor system that delivers exceptional image with impressive sensitivity and wide dynamic range.

Thanks to ultra-high precision alignment technology, three 4K sensors on the newly-developed prism achieves ITU-R BT.2020 broadcast standard widened colour space. As a result, the HDC-P50 delivers exceptionally high-quality images in demanding 4K/HDR live production environments.

Moreover, HD HFR* up to 6x can be output from camera directly. Used standalone or part of a multi-camera shoot, the HDC-P50 can be crane-mounted or operated as a fixed camera position. It’s also ideal for a wide range of other shooting situations – such as in combination with a camera stabiliser, in handheld mode, during wireless shooting or while filming aerial footage from a helicopter.
