    Default MeerCat miniature HD broadcast camera by Camera Corps


    Camera Corps has announced a new speciality camera titled "The Meercat" which fulfills the need
    for a very high quality miniature HD broadcast camera which can be mounted practically anywhere without being visible to other cameras or to an audience. Camera Corps belongs to the renowned Vitec Group which owns companies like OConnor, Vinten, Sachtler, Manfrotto etc...

    Small size:
    The MeerCat camera is 30mm x 30mm and is 93mm tall. Lens protrudes only 25mm. It comes with metal housing and NF mount lenses are available.

    This camera has been designed to meed the demand from sports, reality tv and stage producers.


    The imager is a high-quality third-inch MOS sensor with 1944 x 1092 effective pixels. This can be switched to deliver 1080p, 1080i or 720p video at 50, 59.94 or 60 hertz frame rate. Video is output as HD-SDI which can be converted to an optical feed using a Camera Corps optical fiber interface. Minimum illumination is 1.2 lux at f/1.4. Chroma, master black, saturation, gain, shutter, detail, white balance, gamma, speed and exposure, video format and noise reduction can all be adjusted from the remote control panel.


    "The MeerCat has been trialed with outstanding success during a series of major international sports events prior to its official launch," says Camera Corps' Business Development Director, Shaun Glanville. "It is based on a new imager which delivers video with very wide dynamic range, low noise and excellent color rendition."

    The MeerCat head can be attached to a quarter-inch mount for easy integration into narrow-profile locations such as a sports markers, rugby try-line posts or reality-show props, or can be discreetly located in a studio set. It can also be used as a wearable camera with a full high-definition live wireless link. Full control facilities including manual iris setting with adjustable electronic exposure can be performed remotely using the existing range of Camera Corps joysticks and remote panels.



    The MeerCat comes complete with a standard Camera Corps power supply and interface which can be positioned up to 30 metres from the camera head. Control signals can be delivered over a standard audio line, allowing the interface to be located a practically unlimited distance from the operator. Up to six MeerCat cameras can be operated from a single Camera Corps remote control panel.
