Photron has drawn on knowledge gained from over thirty years experience in high speed imaging technology, including Academy and Emmy awards for technical achievements to produce a camera providing 12bit dynamic range, high light sensitivity and the highest possible image quality and colour fidelity.  The BC2 HD provides four megapixel resolution (2048x2048 pixels) at 1,000 fps, full 1080 HD resolution (1920x1080 pixels) at 2,000 fps and frame rates up to 86,000 fps with reduced resolution. The BC2 HD is compatible with industry standard broadcast accessories:  PL, B4, F and EF lens mounts, HD viewfinders, matte boxes, broadcast tripod plates and rechargeable battery packs/belts. Complete camera control is achieved via an RS-422 port utilized by the camera’s remote keypad or with Photron FASTCAM Viewer (PFV) software through an RJ45 GigaBit Ethernet port.
