D-20 Gets Fiber Link


 

The new fiber link unit for the ARRIFLEX D-20 enables a single fiber cable to carry 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 HD signals from the camera to a separate recorder along with a 4:2:2 HD monitoring signal back from the recorder to the camera and remote control of the recorder basic functions (record start/stop and tally).

The cable can measure up to 500 meters long and uses industry standard fiber connectors. The link unit enables shooting at up to 60 fps with the D-20 and the Sony SRW-1 HDCAM SR recorder or other suitable HD recorders.
