In June procurement organized by LNK (Lithuanian independent television) for purchase of new broadcast cameras ended with Hannu Pro victory. Hannu Pro proposal includes supply of 5 Grass Valley LDK 3000 HD TV broadcast cameras with integrated HD Wideband Triax support and equipment for automated control: a base station supporting HD and SD HQ outputs; master control panels (MCP) for all five cameras; and 7" HD LCD view finders supporting camera control functions such as menu control, focus assist, colour balance correction (independently from camera colour balance) and others. Also included for use on studio crane is a Grass Valley DMC 1000 multi-format tape-less camera, which, thanks to SD/HD outputs, REF and OCP/MCP support, can be effectively integrated into LNK studio setup. Market value of this project reaches EUR 300 000. This latest investment, which will provide high quality 16:9 SD and HD (in near future) programme production, is natural complement to the investment made in 2006 when LNK purchased six LDK 400 SD broadcast cameras for its production studio.
Simultaneously with broadcast camera procurement, Hannu Pro took part and won another LNK procurement to supply four ENG (electronic news gathering) cameras for LNK news department. Hannu Pro will supply two Panasonic AG HPX371EJ and two AG-HPX171EJ P2 series tape-less technology cameras, equipped with Fujinon lenses including and an additional Fujinon ZA17x7.6BRM-M QuickZoom technology HD lens. Market value of this second project reaches EUR 45 000. After completion of both projects LNK will be able to launch new broadcasting season with one of most sophisticated camera park in Baltic States.
