Inc (NASDAQ: FCSE), a worldwide leader in media management
and Ultra Wideband (UWB) wireless technology, introduced the
MCSDI-1 Portable Media Converter at IBC 2007 (stand 9.441)
at the Amsterdam RAI. The MCSDI-1 is a cost-effective solution
for professionals who need to source professional HD-SDI equipment
from camcorders featuring an HDMI uncompressed output. The
MCSDI-1, along with Focus’ industry-leading HD workflow,
will be on display at IBC from September 7-11.
The MCSDI-1 converts HD analog, SD analog,
or digital HDMI input signals to HD-SDI or SD-SDI output —
all in a portable package that can be easily mounted on the
bottom of a camcorder for handheld or tripod use. Fully digital
and uncompressed, SDI has become the production format for
high end broadcast and live video productions. By converting
a signal to HD-SDI or SD-SDI, the MCSDI-1 converter delivers
the highest quality video available from a camcorder —
making it the ideal solution for live video productions.
“The MCSDI-1 lowers the costs of live
video production, by providing a high quality HDMI-to-HD-SDI
conversion,” said Robert Caldeira, senior product manager
for Focus Enhancements. “MCSDI-1 converters combined
with a Focus HX series HD Switcher provides unprecedented
price performance for multi-camera productions.”
Additional MCSDI-1 features include:
· 2-channel embedded digital audio
· Auto-sensing of signal inputs
· Video mute color bar output for
equipment setup
· User-selectable audio levels
· NTSC/PAL
· DC power input (as low as 7.2VDC).
The MCSDI-1 is expected to be available
in mid-September through authorized Focus Enhancements dealers
at a US MSRP of $699. For more information, please visit www.focusinfo.com.
