Telemetrics Offers Long Distance Solutions for Field Production with Coax Link Systems

Prism Video Group (www.prismvideogroup.com) is a full production company based out of Atwater, OH, which is located midway between Cleveland and Pittsburgh.  We specialize in sporting events, concerts and other live or live to tape events, using the latest in acquisition and production equipment including two fully loaded remote trucks.

Two years ago, we found ourselves in need of a better and more cost effective solution for setting up our cameras from a distance when we were at the larger venues such as the Cleveland Browns Stadium or other like facilities.  We also thought that this kind of signal transmission system would allow us to be more creative in our shooting rather than relying on shots and views solely from telephoto lenses in these larger venues.  Our acquisition format is DVC Pro and we use a variety of Canon and Fuji lenses ranging in size from 15X to 50X.

Waterman Broadcasting Furthers Commitment to JVC ProHD With Purchase of BY-HD250 Cameras

Waterman Broadcasting has purchased JVC’s GY-HD250 ProHD cameras for the station’s ABC affiliate, WZVN-TV in Fort Myers, Florida. The GY-HD250s will be used as the station’s primary studio cameras. This purchase follows their December 2006 purchase of several JVC’s 100 Series cameras.

“The GY-HD250 is the perfect choice for our ABC affiliate because of the camera’s native 720p format and the HD-SDI direct output,” said Dan Billings, Director of Engineering and Technology, Waterman Broadcasting. “We also chose JVC because the GY-HD250 integrates well with our Telemetric robotics. The performance of the camera is truly amazing, especially at its price.”

“Additional purchases of our ProHD line by stations such as Waterman Broadcasting is a true testament to our technology,” said Lawrence Librach, Vice President, Digital Video Division, JVC Professional Products Company.  “Because our products easily integrate with existing systems, station managers are realizing they can quickly and affordably upgrade from SD to HD.”
