Broadcasters
Since Canon developed its first television field zoom lens in
1958 we have nurtured an especially close relationship with the
world’s broadcasters. This collaboration spawned continuous developments
that branched into families of television studio, newsgathering,
large and portable field production lenses.
The arrival of HDTV in the 1990s spurred intense R&D activities
that sought to propel various optical technologies to another performance
plane. The criticality of product costs to the broadcaster’s agenda
to transition to Digital Television (DTV) remains a central design
imperative for all of our television lenses. Today, Canon offers
the broadcast industry a superb product lineup of lenses for both
HDTV and SDTV cameras and camcorders. HDTV lenses command a modest
premium over the cost of the SDTV counterpart.
Welcome to the broadcasters website portal. Please take some time
to see for yourself the extraordinary breadth of our product line
and the meticulous attention that we have paid to your every optical
need in the broadcast news studio, production studio, newsgathering,
and field and documentary acquisition areas.
