THE PHANTOM v640: PROVIDING 4MP FULL-RESOLUTION
FRAME RATES AT OVER 1500 FPS
Recommended for your applications where high resolution and high sensitivity
are needed
With Simultaneous Recording and
Playback
Several factors make the Phantom v640 4-megapixel
camera essential for applications where high resolution
and high sensitivity are needed.
Having a 60% sensitivity to light, a significant
reduction in read-out noise, microlens technology
and a four-megapixel resolution results in the camera
being able to take high-quality images at speeds usually reserved for
large-pixel, lower-resolution cameras.
What other factors make the Phantom v640
a highly-desirable solution to my applications
A variety of features, in combination, provide convenient, flexible and
useful facilities for both capture and management of images.
Perhaps the most exciting feature of the v640 for some users is
the Dual Flexible HD-SDI output . This
allows for simultaneous recording and playback. Ideal for super slo-mo
sports applications where the next high speed event can be captured while
the previous event is being played back and broadcast.
Other features include:
Wide aspect ratio |
The rectangular dimensions of the 2560 x 1600 CMOS custom-designed
sensor allows the cinematographer to see more of the view being shot
and to keep moving targets in-frame for longer. |
|
|
Resolution |
1 500 fps at full (2560 x 1600 pixels) resolution; 300 000 fps at
lowest resolution (128 x 8 pixels), plus 12 additional frame rate:
resolution choices. The v640's 4-megapixel resolution can be used
to full advantage at speeds that normally call for large-pixel, lower-resolution
cameras. |
|
|
Shutter |
A global electronic shutter with exposure times down to 1 microsecond
provides crisp, sharp images with little or no image blur or motion
artifacts. An internal mechanical shutter for cutting off all light
to the sensor is provided to perform a session black reference with
no manual intervention |
|
|
Flexible bit-depth choice |
8- and 12-bit depth; 8 bits giving more recording time and smaller
files while 10 bits provides more levels of colour or grey and finer
details. |
|
|
Extreme Dynamic Range |
This feature gives the camera ability to capture two different
exposures within a single frame and electonically combine them for
a extended dynamic range. Perfect when the subject being captured
contains very bright as well as very dark areas where details in both
must be properly exposed. |
|
|
Memory |
Available is 8 GB, 16GB or 32GB RAM volatile RAM memory. The segmented
memory function allows the division of RAM into 64 segments so that
multiple shots can be taken back-to-back without needing to first
download data from the camera. |
|
|
More memory |
Optional storage is available via the Phantom CineMag - a non-volatile,
hot-swappable memory magazine that fits snugly to the Cinemag-compatible
version of the camera. Direct recording is typically to RAM and then
moved to Cinemag, but it is also possible to record direct to the
Cinemag. Either way the Cinemag removes the need to continually download
from the camera. |
|
|
Added security |
Work loss through power failure is a thing of the past with the
CineMag magazine as your shoot can be recorded directly into non-volatile
memory. |
