FOR NAB 1987

JVC INTRODUCES NEW LINE OF THREE CHIP COLOR CAMERAS

At NAB 1987 Booth 3180, the Professional Video

Communications Division of JVC COMPANY OF AMERICA will

introduce a new series of solid state cameras incorporating

three charged couple devices (CCDs) housed in a lightweight,

diecast aluminum body designed to resist the rigors of field

production.

At the heart of this series is a newly designed CCD which

incorporates the latest technology in solid state pick-up

devices. By incorporating current technology, JVC engineers

have been able to develop a CCD camera which reaches a level

of performance higher than previously available to video

professionals.

The KY-20U is a self-contained full function component or

NTSC camera which is for ENG or studio applications requiring

a large viewfinder and remote camera control. An MII docking

VCR can be attached to the KY-20U by replacing the standard

camera adaptor with an optional MII format adaptor.

AN EXTENSION OF THE JVC CAMERA LINE

The design of this series follows the philosophy of other

JVC color camera innovations. Included are such features as

an IQ encoder, RS-170A type SSG, 2H vertical contour circuit,

color matrix circuit, gen-lock circuit, and most important,

the component output signal.

With a S/N ratio of 56 dB, a resolution of more than 530

Iines for all channels, and a registration error of less than

0.5 percent in all zones, these new cameras feature

performance that makes them ideal for VCR recording as well as

providing RGB input for image processing systems. The minimum

illumination required is 23 lux (2 fc) using the standard 13X

lens when gain is boosted to +18 dB.

Auto-setup and self-diagnostic make these new cameras

easy-to-operate and user-friendly. Stereo audio inputs are

provided for use with the newest portable VCRs from JVC,

including the new MII portable recorder.
