Introducing LDX 100: Premium Live Production

Designed to reveal in detail the intensity and emotion behind fast-paced action and split-second decisions, LDX 100 NativeIP cameras use a new 2/3-inch Titan imager to capture Ultra High Definition (UHD) High Dynamic Range (HDR) images at 3X high speed. That’s a lot of “high” functionality in one description, but that’s what you should expect from Grass Valley’s new flagship camera platform.

Just as compelling as its image capture capabilities is the camera’s redefinition of signal distribution. Born a network native, the camera is a self-contained IP endpoint with up to 100 Gb/s IP network connections for audio, video, and control directly at the camera head that enable distribution...

Introducing LDX 100: Premium Live Production

Designed to reveal in detail the intensity and emotion behind fast-paced action and split-second decisions, LDX 100 NativeIP cameras use a new 2/3-inch Titan imager to capture Ultra High Definition (UHD) High Dynamic Range (HDR) images at 3X high speed. That’s a lot of “high” functionality in one description, but that’s what you should expect from Grass Valley’s new flagship camera platform.

Just as compelling as its image capture capabilities is the camera’s redefinition of signal distribution. Born a network native, the camera is a self-contained IP endpoint with up to 100 Gb/s IP network connections for audio, video, and control directly at the camera head that enable distribution of camera sources wherever they are needed on the network — without the delays inherent in sending signals to a separate control hub.

New topologies are possible for signal acquisition and distribution. LDX 100 eliminates the requirement for traditional SDI interconnects, thereby enabling a high level of distribution flexibility including true REMI integration that requires less bandwidth because only the needed signals are transmitted. Efficiency also goes up as multiple creative teams have immediate, non-conflicting access to all camera sources wherever it’s best for them to work. Collaborative production has never been easier.

Operational Efficiency with NFC and LDX Scanner

• The App for the LDX Scanner is now available on both the Apple and Android stores.
  
• LDX 100 reduces time spent looking after cameras. A suite of revolutionary inventory management features for streamlined logistical operations includes wireless Near Field Communication (NFC) that reduces handling time by several minutes every time you ship a camera. With NFC you can use a mobile phone to read usage information on check-out/check-in and load options into your equipment so that it is fully ready to operate for the next production – without ever powering-up the camera! Just download and open the app, hold your phone close to the NFC mark on the camera, and then select the tabs for camera info and licenses. It’s that simple.

LDX 100 cameras offer feature sets that everyone on the team will appreciate.
