Dani Lozano, ‘El Clasico’ Producer at MEDIAPRO, said, “Panasonic listened to us as customers and implemented the things we needed in our day-to-day production, things that we thought were necessary in order to carry out production normally. For example, a gamma curve devoted to sports has been introduced. They have also upgraded the actual hardware too, with additional outputs, which are very useful for installations using mobile units.”

Toni Feliú, Senior Manager for ProAV at Panasonic Spain, said, “Because the costs are moderate, the installation simple, and the integration with third party products is very convenient, we hope that the Barcelona-Real Madrid game will be a kick start for high-end 4K production in Spain.”

“4K is not something for the future, it is something for the present. I think that for companies like us, production in 4K is becoming the norm,” added Dani Lozano.
Claudio Vázquez, OB Vans Technical coordinator at MEDIAPRO, said, “We worked with Panasonic to develop a new control panel – the ROP. It gives us access to something that makes our job easier and offers the operator versatility, facilitating their work. We had great support whilst working with Panasonic and, because it is a shared design, they continue to offer us support.”
The UC3000 is a compact studio camera that is compatible with B4 mount lenses. It features a balance between the various image quality parameters: high sensitivity, signal-to-noise ratio, high resolution, and a wide dynamic range.
