Portable HDTV lens with built-in image optical stabilizer, ideally suited for a wide range of shooting situations, in particular, sports where the subject or object is moving.
Take a more detailed look into the Canon HJ15ex8.5B KRSE-V
Canon's HJ15ex8.5B KRSE-V portable HD zoom lens provides the
solution to camera shake in the ever-demanding HDTV environment. It
also anwers the need when capturing fast moving images, especially,
in sports and drama production, and maintaining sharp focus.
The HJ15ex8.5B KRSE-V can stabilize a wide range of vibration
frequencies. Examples range from the low-frequency vibrations
encountered on a camera operator's shoulder in a jostling crowd
situation, to tripod-mounted operation on shaky platforms, to the
higher-frequency vibration that cameras are subject to when
operated inside TV news helicopters, motor vehicles, motorbikes,
and boats. The lens provides four selectable stabilization modes to
allow operators to optimize the degree of correction under diverse,
and sometimes unique, shooting conditions.
Canon's unique VAP-IS technology incorporates a novel optical
group made up of two flat glass elements joined by sealed bellows
containing a high-refractive-index liquid, selectively placed
within the lens' overall optical system. The system has been
optimized to introduce a high-degree of real-time compensation for
image instabilities.
A major advantage of Canon's unique VAP-IS system is that it
totally relieves the camera operator of any concerns with respect
to lens-camera stability, allowing full concentration on creative
image framing, focusing, and capturing imagery of the subject being
photographed.
