Page 18: Introduction
Technology Work Field The LDX 110 / LDX 135 / LDX 150 is designed for flexibility, with the ability to be used for both dramatic productions and live broadcasts, especially sports. The use of compact broadcast 2/3-inch lenses with a B4-mount gives you the large zoom range, speed and depth of field which is required for demanding live and many dramatic productions.
Page 19: Remote Production
Remote production The LDX 110 / LDX 135 / LDX 150 is the best choice for At-Home/REMI (REMote Integration) productions. With the implementation of Grass Valley’s NativeIP transmission, the LDX 110 / LDX 135 / LDX 150 is the first studio system camera that is fully IP based. Thanks to NativeIP, the camera connects directly to your IP infrastructure in studio and OB-production environments.
