Roehampton University
|TVR, the television unit at Roehampton University, has been using JVC equipment for many years – from KY17 cameras in 1991 to KY27s in 1996 – for
their portable production unit. The University recently purchased the JVC GY-HD251 camera for use for its live events.
“Our original kit has been reliable for years and it’s still working well,” Peter Merton, Head of Media at the University, states. “But with developments in technology and the introduction of HD, the time had come to replace the KY27s and look to something a little more flexible and future-proof. We looked at a range of products in the marketplace but decided that the JVC GY-HD251, supplied by First Choice Solutions, with its studio adapter and LCD viewfinder, offered the most flexible system and the best value for money.
“We also liked the fact it can be used as an ENG camera, as well as in ‘studio mode’. We are purchasing three camera channels, with CCUs and remotes, which will be used to cover live events including graduations, lectures and small outside broadcasts.”
