Ultra High Sensitivity 4K Video Camera with Full 35mm frame Exmor™ CMOS Sensor and AC Adapter

Product Overview

The Versatile 4K Remote Camera
Ideal for mounting on gimbals or VR rigs this camera can be launched into any scene. Its compact size and on-board recording capability make the camera ideal for remote PoV (Point of View) documentaries wildlife and live action shooting plus challenging environments where cabling or space are limited. Capable of multi-camera set up via Genlock for recording live productions combined with its ultra-high sensitivity and long recording time (depends on SD card capacity) the UMC-S3CA challenges conventional ideas about 4K remote cameras.

Clear Footage From Every Angle In Any Light
In terms of recording capabilities the UMC-S3CA sits apart from any other remote camera in the market. This is due to a combination of 4K recording capacity (4K/29.97P/25P in XAVC S format at up to 100 Mbps) and high sensitivity with a minimum illumination of 0.004 lx / ISO 409600* – light levels that cause severe image noise problems for other cameras.

With its compact design and long storage capacity (depends on SD card) its ideal for recording in limited spaces where smaller cameras can produce noisy images.

* Standard ISO 100–102400 expandable to 50–409600

Easy Remote Operation
The camera’s movements can be remotely controlled from a PC or Mac via the software – Camera Control Manager – making the UMC-S3CA uniquely suited to applications where it can be rigged on the roof of a stage and controlled from below. Interchangeable lenses make it easy to achieve sharp focus for the shots you need.

3D/VR Recording
The versatility of set up allowed via Genlock makes the UMC-S3CA ideal for multi-camera installations perfect for recording 2D/3D Virtual Reality. With the help of the Camera Control Manager users can synchronize multiple cameras for live VR video shooting.

Shooting Flexibility with Choice of E-Mount FE Lenses
The camera’s versatility is enhanced by a wide range of interchangeable E-mount FE lenses (available separately)*. These maximise the performance of the 35 mm full-frame sensor maintaining high resolution across the entire image area from centre to edges.
