Multi-Format Digital HDTV Production Camera
Advanced Ergonomics Design
The ultra-efficient SK-HD1000 is a member of Hitachi’s
“Green Products” Global initiative.
High-performance starts with advanced sensors
Premier user of
14-bit analog-to-digital conversion
Hitachi cameras were the first on the market to recognize and
implement 14-bit analog-to-digital conversion. The SK-HD1000 takes
full advantage of the increased dynamic range output of the NEW
imagers by using 3 (Red, Green, Blue channel)14-bit analog-to-digital
converters. These high speed ADCs are the bridge between the serial
output of the CCDs and the advanced Hitachi processor. They assure
that every nuance of the image captured and, converted to electrical
energy by the sensors is interpreted in the digital domain resulting in
faithful image reproduction.

SK-HD1000 with VF-402 CA-HF1000 Rear Panel
The SK-HD1000 is Hitachi’s third generation HDTV camera that embodies the latest advanced digital signal processing patents
and world-renowned Hitachi technology. It is a high performance, Multi-Standard HDTV studio and field production camera
system that satisfies various TV Systems worldwide. One camera system that is now used with 50Hz or 60Hz AC line power
regions of the world having both analog and digital signals that comply to the respective countries’ TV Systems. As a standard
feature, the SK-HD1000 is a multi-format output camera system since it is able to output dual formats (SD and HD)at the same
time. Optionally available is the ability to perform as a switchable cross-converting HD camera that outputs 1080i or 720p HDTV
signal formats and SD at the same time.
The lightweight (4.4Kg (9.6lbs) : Camera head)2-piece, dockable design gives it unique attributes which provide efficient and
cost-effective adaptation to various TV program production demands. It’ s circuits’’ miniaturization yield not only the smallest
most flexible Hitachi HDTV camera to date but, one the “greenest” and most power efficient (16W camera head power
consumption)ones on the market.
Hitachi has achieved an incredibly quiet HDTV image which is the foundation
for its high performance and excellent picture quality. With the use of NEW
2.3 million pixels, micro-lens array, 1080i CCDs, the SK-HD1000 surpasses
the performance of all prior models. These new sensors enable the
SK-HD1000 to achieve outstanding resolution, dynamic range response,
sensitivity and ultra-low vertical smear characteristics. A high horizontal
resolution performance of 1100TVL (Luminance channel)is the pinnacle of
picture sharpness from any camera presently on the market and is an
attribute to the claim of having the most
transparent signal processing path of any
Hitachi digital camera manufactured to
date.The camera head is also available
with native megapixel 720P CCDs
(SK-HD1000-S4 version) with exceptional
low noise and ultra-low vertical smear
characteristics.

Multi-Format Digital HDTV Production Camera
Hitachi’s advanced digital signal processing Digital signal transmission via Hybrid Fiber
Optical Cable
Setup memory and adjustment transfer card
Superb High Definition picture reproduction
& enhancement tools
The SK-HD1000 camera system utilizes industry standard Hybrid Fiber-
optic cable connectors made of high-strength stainless steel to insure
durability and reliable performance under the most demanding TV Studio
and Field production circumstances. All command audio and video
signals to and from the camera are digitally transmitted hence, totally
immune to EMI/ RFI interference. Camera power and cable condition
supervision are also performed when using the Hybrid Fiber-Optic Cable
(HFOC). Full Auxiliary (up to 4 analog or digital, HD or SD)video return
and individual Teleprompter facilities are also available with the SK-
HD1000 transmission system. The maximum HFOC length with applied
camera power and fully operational facilities is 1,000 meters* (3,280
feet*).
Unique to cameras in the SK-HD1000’ s price range are optical power
meters at the camera head (via engineering menu)and on the front of the
CU-HD1000 camera control unit. These meters indicate the optical
condition of both the receive and, transmit signals independently to
accurately depict the proximity to the “digital cliff”, maximum cable
distance or provide basic HFOC diagnostics in the field.
*HFOC distance with applied CCU power differs depending on the system configuration.
It is dependant on the type of lens used, viewfinder, studio Adaptor, teleprompter and
other accessories that may be connected and thereby consuming power otherwise
available for the camera head.
Each essential part of the Hitachi SK-HD1000 camera system has its
own DSP processor. Different DSP ICs are used independently for the
HDTV camera head processing, the transmission system and the
Camera Control Unit (CCU)processing. The new, power-efficient Digital
Signal Processor LSI’ s are designed under the 65nm rule with dynamic
processing capability in excess of 30-bits per pixel, per RGB channel.
Hitachi’ s DSP processors are designed for and, can adopt to
progressive readout HDTV sensors. The processing dynamic headroom
of the SK-HD1000 in theory (14-bit), allow for signals in excess of 85dB
to be faithfully reproduced. Additional digital encoding at the camera
head and CCU provides low interference and high signal integrity for
both digital and analog outputs.
An outstanding overall signal-to-noise ratio specification of 60dB is
achieved by use of our own low-noise circuit technology. The standard
sensitivity is rated at F10 with 2000 lx.
Even at high gain, clear images are obtained with little noise.

Luminance response tools
Selectable gamma tables
In addition to normal gamma point and balance adjustments, the
SK-HD1000 offers a multi-point gamma table that provides the user
with exposure control over just the darkest points in the image. It
enables adjustment of the initial gamma gain to optimize the repro-
duction of dark scene components. Hitachi’ s DSPs assure that no
additional noise components are introduced in the image even with
the most aggressive Gamma Table settings. Additionally, this function
does not change any of the other parameters of the video signal thus
maintaining overall exposure, detail,color reproduction and composition.
Black stretch
The SK-HD1000’s Black stretch function allows for better reprod-
uction of dark or underexposed areas by evenly raising the luminance
response without changing the pedestal or white clip/ knee settings.
It is especially useful in high contrast image venues, outdoors or
sports production.
Linear and auto-knee
Like the peak video level control function of the white clip; the linear
knee function is made up of the actual knee (level compression)point
and its slope which improve overexposed portions of the picture by
compressing the video past a certain point. These points are user
adjustable.
The auto knee provides the perception of a wider dynamic range by
dynamically compressing (varying knee and slope)the video level in
accordance to the strength of its over-exposure.
A small plug-in setup card (SD card)stores the user setup and Scene
File information. The adjustment data can then be recalled and used for
future scenes and productions thereby assuring the exact video “look”
and characteristics as the original Scene File and adjustment settings.
A single cameras’ setup data can also be transferred to quickly adjust a
group of cameras to be used
in a production.
Access to setup card data and
transfer is also available from
the SU-1000 master setup panel.

remotely controlled filter wheel. These are: Clear, 4-point Cross,
1/16ND, 1/64ND. A second remotely controlled optical wheel is
available in the S2 & S4(720P) camera head versions with colour
temperature filters for 3200K, 4300K, 6300K & 8000K
Full auto mode
The AES and automatic iris maintain the video level even with rapidly
changing light intensity. These functions are accessed via the menu
system or the shutter buttons provided on the RU-1200VR/JY and
SU-1000 remote control panels.Full-time Auto White balance (FAW)
corrects in real-time for color temperature variations due to changing
types of lighting conditions on the scene object.
ECC
(Electronic Color Compensation)
Due to the wide gain characteristics of the SK-HD1000, the ECC
function compensates for color temperature electronically by providing
preset gains to equal color temperature gradations of 3200K, 4300K,
5600K, 6300K and 8000K.Only ECC 5600K only in the S2 & S4(720P)
camera head versions.The ECC can be controlled by the remote
control panel and the base station like an optical filter. The setting can
be stored in the Scene files and its status can be displayed on the view
finder and the monitor output.
Optical and image capture functions
Programmable soft-switches (CS-1, CA-CS)
The cameraperson can assign Zebra, marker, VF Detail, Quick Focus or
FAW to the CS-1 switch via the operation menu. The CA-CS switch
can take on the functions of VF Detail on/off, marker-1 or marker-2
on/off.
Viewfinder options
Three viewfinder options are offered with the SK-HD1000 camera
system. Black & White CRT-type viewfinders are manufactured for ENG
(2-inch)and OB (5-inch). These are of high-brightness and contrast
making them ideal for easy visibility in field production.
A 9-inch color TFT-LCD screen viewfinder is offered for critical viewing
such as encountered in studio productions.
Viewfinder markers & functions
The SK-HD 1000 provides an excellent gamut of thoughtful viewfinder
markers and functions to aid the cameraman in providing outstanding
results during a TV program production.
All VF parameters can be stored in 4 dedicated memories which can
catalog preferences for different camerapersons, programs, shooting
condition or event period.
Programmable functions include; color/mono, detail, crisp, safety zone,
2 movable markers, center cross-hair, 2 movable effects boxes, variable
aspect ratio side panels, side panel contrast/ bright, 2-mode zebra and
variable line display level polarity.
Camera head inputs & outputs
The camera head provides 2 buffered HD-SDI, 1 SD analog teleprom-
pter out, and 1 HD-SDI switchable as Monitor or VF and RET video
output via BNC connectors. The MIC-1 channel is switchable with
balanced XLR input connector located at the front of the camera
(shotgun mic)or at the rear of the CA-HF1000. All the microphone
input provides phantom power supplies and accept mic or line levels.
These IOs satisfy a wide variety of production requirements and are
provided as with most broadcast-grade cameras.
Ease of use characteristics & functions
The SK-HD1000 incorporates heavy duty mounts for both the ENG and Studio viewfinders.
Comprehensive cameraperson operation panel
In Studio and Field production, the SK-HD1000 provides the camera-
person with a wide array of controls for intercom audio, program audio,
aux video switching controls, script lamp connector, dual-tally and call
functions that are the norm in high-end broadcast cameras. These
functions along with available 100W of teleprompter monitor power
and dedicated prompter SD signal make the SK-HD1000 a logical
choice for sophisticated productions.
Viewfinder status displays
Iris F-stop, Lens Externder position, Shutter speed, Optical and ECC
filter in use, and Gain setting are all displayed or defeated via menu
selection. Menu selection also includes the over-level or between
range-type zebra are also provided.
Quick focus
The Quick Focus function automatically opens the iris then sets the
video level with the electronic shutter. The resulting shallow depth of
focus, allows the cameraman to set the exact focus with ease.

The SK-HD1000 camera system offers two choices for Studio or Field
production viewfinders. Model VF-L9HD is a color 9-inch TFT-LCD screen
designed for critical color viewing of the image. The LCD screen offers
a
wide viewing angle and fast transient response time for a lag-less, crisp
image similar to a CRT-type screen. It is most suitable where precise
composition and color evaluation of the image are required. The VF-HD
500 model is a monochrome 5-inch CRT-type unit that is more suited for
Sports and OB applications where high-brightness and contrast are
required. Both our Studio and Field production viewfinders can be out-
fitted with alternate mounts thereby decreasing the overall system cost.
