Crosscast reveals micro HD high speed camera

Crosscast has released its new XCAM 1050, a full HD high-speed micro camera capable of up to 1050 frames per second playout. The XCAM 1050, a second generation high speed camera, was designed to easily integrate into challenging multi camera broadcasting and filming environments.

In addition, Crosscast also released two new developments: (1) Focus/Iris-Control unit & (2) Fiber Adaptor unit. The XCAM 1050 can save up to 65% of production costs compared to other high speed camera system. Due to the camera’s built in high speed playout capability, no external equipment is needed for the use of a system in live production.

Built with global shutter CMOS sensor technology, the XCAM 1050 is capable of up to 1050fps (350fps shot natively) high-speed and live output simultaneously. The camera head weights only 128g, while its outer dimensions measure 53x42x44 (L x W x H). The system fits perfectly onto lightweight camera cranes, such as a Polecam.
