Pixel HD
FLIR Systems’ Pixel 350 HD is a camera especially tailored for the demanding airborne broadcast industry. It offers exactly what this industry needs: image quality and reliability. The Pixel 350 HD incorporates the latest generation broadcast-quality high definition imaging systems.
- Lightweight high stiffness composite body
The gimbal is build from high stiffness composite materials. The aluminum inner structure assures the lowest possible weight: an important issue when mounting the camera underneath an aircraft. - 4 axis active stabilization
The design is four axis active gyro-stabilized based upon very low drift fiber-optic gyroscopes and a
digital servo motor control system and a patented two axis linear isolator. This unique design offers
outstanding stability of less than 35 micro radians, ensuring easy steering and accurate imaging
independent of aircraft movements. - Professional HDV camera
The gyro-stabilized gimbal contains Sony´s HVRV1U(E) professional HDV camera. The camera
employs a 3-chip ClearVid CMOS Sensor for optimum picture quality. This camera bridges between HD and SD allowing use in any DV-based system, whether it uses the HDV,DVCAM, or DV format. - 20x zoom lens
The Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T® zoom lens features extra low dispersion (ED) glass and a 20 x optical
zoom lens with F2.8 at the telephoto end for greater light sensitivity and long range image acquisition for maximum shooting flexibility. - Hard Disk recording
Via a the i.LINK connection, Sony´s HVR-DR60 Hard Disk Recording Unit allows recording of the HDV/DV signals from the HVR-V1U(E) camera. The internal 1.8-inch hard disk drive offers a large capacity of 60 GB, which translates into a long recording time of 4.5 hours (270 minutes) for both formats.
