INTRODUCTION TO THE AUDIO AND VISUAL MEDIA Dr: El Sayed Abo Sheashaa Lecturer in Department of Radio and Television  Types of Cameras First: According to shape and size: 1. Studio Camera:  These are large-sized cameras, which is why they are called studio cameras because most of their use is inside studios.  However, they can be taken outside the studio to film football matches or conferences. These cameras are characterized by a set of features: 1. The high cost of using these cameras due to their large size and the difficulty of transporting them outside the studio. 2. You need a highly skilled photographer. 3. Some types of them can give a very accurate image due to the large size of the CCD in them, as well as very close-up images through the possibility of installing large lenses on them. 4. Most of the time, these cameras do not contain VTR. 2. ENG/EFP Portable Camera:  ENG camera is an abbreviation for Electronic News Gathering.  This camera is characterized by: 1. Small size. 2. Light weight. 3. The price of the camera is cheap whether for rent or purchase, such as (MD 10000 - Sony Z5) 4. Low cost compared to other video cameras, especially the modern types (DSLR) as they do not need tapes to record the image. 5. It gives a high quality image, which enables it to be used in shooting reports or features. MD 10000 Z 5 SONY CANON 5D MARK III  EFP camera is an abbreviation for Electronic Field Production.  XD Cam  Second: Types of cameras in terms of imaging quality  The quality of imaging in cameras depends on the number of lines and pixels. (The more lines and pixels, the better the image quality, and vice versa.)  Cameras are divided according to quality into: 1. Normal quality (SD cameras). 2. High quality (HDV cameras). 3. Full quality (HD cameras). 4. Super quality cameras (K.Cams). 1. Standard Definition Cams:  These are cameras that provide acceptable quality in photography, as they create an image with dimensions of 720 X 576, and are currently used in filming television reports or even in television programs on channels with modest budgets.  It is considered the cheapest type of cameras, and most of the settings are usually done automatically (such as diaphragm, shutter, and focus settings).  The most famous examples are: MD 10000, Sony 400. Sony DCR-SD1000 Sony DSR-400PL SD Camcorder PAL 2. HDV Cams:  These are cameras that provide a high-quality image, as the percentage of lines and dots in the frame increases to 1920 X 1080.  These cameras are considered an intermediate stage between regular quality cameras and high quality cameras, as they are characterized by their low price compared to high quality Full HD cameras and their high image quality compared to SD cameras.  One of the most famous examples of this is the Sony Z series. Sony Z5 Sony V1 Canon XH-A1 3CCD Sony HVR-Z7 HDV 3. Full HD Camera:  These are cameras that provide a high-quality image, as the percentage of lines and dots in the frame increases to 1920 X 1080.  It differs from HDV cameras in that it provides a higher quality image. Despite the equal number of lines in the frame, the image of HD cameras is higher, and this is due to other factors inside the camera, such as the type of lens and the quality of the CCD.  One of the most famous examples of this is the Canon 5D, Sony HXR-MC2500, Sony HXR- Sony PXW-Z280 MC2500 4K 3-CMOS  Black magic
