FOR-A says its new FT-ONE-S 4K camera lets operators separate the camera head from the body for exceptional mobility. Capable of shooting up to 360 frames per second (fps), the FT-ONE-S promises unprecedented shooting positions.
More details from FOR-A (www.for-a.com):
A new FT-ONE camera is here, building on the breakthrough of super slow-motion 4K shooting. Separating the camera head from the body offers exceptional mobility, enabling unprecedented shooting positions or angles for live sports or other events. Expand your creative horizons by combining super slow-motion 4K shooting—a highlight of FT-ONE cameras—with the superior mobility of this model.
More convenient camera head
At about 180 × 200 × 290 mm and 5.5 kg, the camera head is smaller and lighter than that of the original FT-ONE, yet it remains full-featured. The camera operator is linked optically and via an intercom system. Such a maneuverable camera head can be used where larger cameras cannot, as part of a system that expands creative possibilities.
Superb mobility at many live events
Camera operators have room to roam when covering live events, thanks to the 1 km range of the optical connection between the camera head and base station.
Fast 360 fps shooting at 4K
By adding mobility to the fast 4K shooting introduced by the FT-ONE, the FT-ONE-S can capture exciting moments better than ever.
Dustproof and splash-resistant*
The camera’s enhanced resistance to dust and water lets camera operators focus on shooting. Also an advantage at swimming or marine sports events. Engage viewers by capturing competitors at closer range.
* Within the scope of normal camera head usage only. Does not apply to the lens.
Super 35 mm sensor
Capture live events with the sense of depth of TV dramas or movies. Content is immersive and beyond the reach of ordinary HD cameras with 2/3-inch image sensors. Even familiar scenes look more exciting.
12-axis color correction
In video output, color correction along 12 axes surpasses ordinary trichromatic correction. Specific colors can be corrected by adjusting hue and saturation on the 12 axes. This is convenient for on-site color-matching between scenes, or when ensuring color consistency with video from other cameras.
Base Station
Designed for installation in vans or where events are covered, the base station features solid construction. Exceptionally reliable, it also eliminates the need for a control computer. FT-ONE-S base station meets all broadcast needs in a core system. Communication with the camera includes tally signals, shooting feedback, and intercom functionality. Besides powering the camera head, the base station receives video and controls super slow-motion material.
