Component system configuration

1Camera control unit (CCU: AK-HCU931P)

This is the Multi-Format Camera’s camera control unit. It is connected to the Multi-Format Camera using an optical fiber cable (optional accessory).

As a standard feature, it supports SD video input and output, and it can also support HD video input and output by connecting the HD output unit (AK-HHD931P).

2Remote operation panel (ROP: AK-HRP931P)

The ROP is connected to the CCU using the ROP cable (optional accessory), and enables the camera, CCU and lens to be operated by remote control.

3Master setup unit (MSU:AK-MSU930P)

When a multiple number of cameras and CCUs are used, the MSU can operate up to 15 units either separately or simultaneously by remote control. It can be operated together with the ROP.

4 2z viewfinder (2zVF: AJ-HVF20P)

This is the viewfinder for the Multi-Format Camera.

5Build-up unit (AK-HBU931P)

This is an adapter used to mount a larger lens (optional accessory) on the Multi-Format Camera. Thereby, it affords the same level of operability as that provided by a larger camera.

6LCD viewfinder (LCD VF: AK-HVF931P)

This is the LCD viewfinder for the Multi-Format Camera. It can be used at the same time as the 2z viewfinder. It can still be operated when the system is built up.
