The HKCU-REC50 adds an internal recording function to the HDCU-5000 camera control unit (CCU), increasing the complete camera system's versatility and efficiency in live production applications.
Adding the HKCU-REC50 allows the CCU to record a live camera feed directly. With no need for an additional recorder and cabling, 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 accessible immediately after shooting, saving time with no need to wait for file transfers.
The CCU with HKCU-REC50 can record 4K and HD signals simultaneously, making the system ideal for simultaneous 4K HDR and HD SDR live production (SR Live) with the HDC-5500/3500/3100 HDR-capable cameras.
Record start/stop and networked file transfers can be controlled using PWA-RCT1 integrated network control software for the HKCU-REC50 and PWS-4500 live production server.
