The HKCU-REC55 adds an optional internal recording function to HDCU-5500 and HDCU-3500 camera control units, increasing the complete camera system's versatility and efficiency in live-production applications.
Adding the HKCU-REC55 allows the CCU to record a live camera feed directly. With no need for an additional recorder or cabling between the CCU and recorder, production is simplified with improved space utilization inside an OB vehicle. During recording, files can be transferred in real time from the CCU to a portable SSD or networked storage. Recorded files are available immediately after shooting, saving time with no need to wait for file transfers.
The CCU with HKCU-REC55 can record 4K and HD signals simultaneously, making the system ideal for 4K HDR and HD SDR simultaneous live production (SR Live) with the HDC-5500/3500 HDR-capable 4K cameras.
Record start/stop and networked file transfers can be controlled using PWA-RCT1* integrated network control software for the HKCU-REC55 and PWS-4500 live production server.
