Marshall CV574 4K Mini Camera

Race crews in the Nevada desert bolt the Marshall CV574 into trophy trucks and push live pictures over satellite at more than 220 km/h — a...
Frame-accurate timing decides whether a multicamera cut looks deliberate or clumsy, and that is exactly the problem the Marshall CV566 Mini Camera solves in the POV class. Its tri-level sync (genlock) input phase-locks the head to house reference, so the vision mixer switches between angles cleanly, with no frame-store delay creeping into a live programme. Simultaneous 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs let one unit feed a broadcast router and a compact streaming switcher at the same time.
Behind the interchangeable M12 lens mount sits a Sony Exmor 1/2.8-inch (6.46 mm) CMOS sensor with 2.2 megapixels. It delivers Full HD 1920×1080p at any rate from 23.98 to 60 fps, with 1080i and 720p on hand for legacy plants — welcome wherever 25p and 50p standards still rule. Colour holds down to 0.01 lux, and a night mode rated at 0.005 lux captures IR wavelengths for near-dark observation. A colour matrix with style, master and colour level/phase adjustment lets an engineer match this miniature head to full-size studio cameras rather than fixing it in post.
The body is milled from a solid aluminium billet, with protective ears guarding the rear connectors against knocks on scaffolding, motorsport mounts or cramped set pieces. A 4.0 mm prime comes fitted; Marshall's M12 optics run from a 2.3 mm wide angle to a 16 mm telephoto plus two varifocals, so a single camera model covers goal-line, drum-kit and courtroom framings alike. Over RS-485, it answers to Marshall's control software or a CV-RCP-V2 shading panel from a control room hundreds of metres away, while the 12-pin Hirose breakout carries power, control, genlock and stereo audio — embedded on both outputs at up to 48 kHz.
For a production company, the running costs stay modest: 6 W of draw, a 12 V supply in the box, micro-USB firmware updates handled on site, and one operator matching a whole fleet from the CCU chair. OB trucks, esports arenas, courtrooms, parliamentary chambers and touring concert rigs all gain angles no camera operator could physically occupy.

Key features
Applications:
The 566 is suitable for use in 3GSDI as well as HDMI workflows where image quality and versatility are of utmost concern, including live broadcast productions, courtroom capture, corporate video, government assembly, sportscast, newscast, reality television, eSports, concerts, house of worship and many more.
New Sony 1/2.8" (6.46mm) CMOS Solid-State Image Sensors
The next generation Sony Exmor sensors provide clear HD images with true color even in low-light (0.01Lux) and ability to switch to night mode (0.005Lux) where IR light wavelengths can be captured.
Genlock Tri-Level Sync Feature
Tri-level sync runs at higher frequency which allows multiple cameras to be plugged into HD workflows already in sync (genlock) with much less latency when switched and more seamless transitions.
Durable, Flexible, Powerful, Performance
The durable CV500-series cameras are chiseled from one block of aluminum alloy with rear panel protection, which enable them to be used in rough environments and continue to produce clean reliable signals.
Broadcast Performance
Marshall Camera Division continues to develop camera products to follow the heritage of Marshall broadcast quality incorporating reliability, durability, flexibility and most importantly affordability with feature sets that matter.
