The Sony HXC-P70H 3 x 2/3" Exmor C-MOS HD Camera Head is a point-of-view "POV" camera developed for a wide range of applications. Owing to a longer cable distance extension and a higher sensitivity, in addition to its compact size, light weight, and lower power consumption the HXC-P70H is a viable option to Sony's HDC-P1. The HXC-P70H allows direct connection to the HXCU-FB70 camera control unit by optical fiber cable, in addition to two HD/SD-SDI outputs. The hybrid-type fiber cable can extend the distance from the CCU up to 500m, while supplying the required power. If a single-mode fiber cable is connected, the distance can be extended up to 10km with a local power supply.

The HXC-P70H adopts the same three 2.2-million pixels 2/3-inch type CMOS sensors as used on Sony high-end cameras such as the HXC-D70 and delivers high sensitivity of F12 at 59.94 Hz or F13 at 50 Hz. In addition, the camera uses an electrical CC filter alongside a servo motorized optical ND filter. These help to reduce the power consumption and make for an affordable total system with the CCU, cables, and remote controller. The camera is ideal for a wide variety of applications, from production studio and event hall/stadium work, to wider applications such as surveillance, conference, and house of worship installations.
