The newly developed remote head RH2W built by the Berlin based company Blackcam System was used for the first time on July 4th, 2020 at the DFB Final Cup between Bayern München and Bayer Leverkusen at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin that due to Covid-19 restrictions had to be executed without spectators. The RH2W was located directly between the coach benches at the centerline and was used for both the live editing and the super slow-motion sequences. The newest feature is the remote head's capability to carry system cameras with box lenses while delivering smooth pictures with ultra-wide focal length.
Since the return of the Bundesliga (Germany’s national soccer league) after Covid-19 lockdown this key camera position had been permitted due to the pandemic’s stringent hygienic requirements. The RH2W remote head brought one of the key camera angles for sport broadcast back to life, and it delivered most emotional pictures of the game’s final moments and the award ceremony.
Steady to the highest focal length the Blackcam RH2W is applicable with a 90 pounds Sony HDC-4800 camera and a UHD Digisuper 122x 4k Canon lens – zero latency remote control and super slo-mo included. The RH2W’s large dynamic range is suitable for any type of sport broadcast. Sensitive camera moves with full focal length of 1000mm (122x) are possible without shakes and easy to handle for any camera operator. Fast panning movements are easily done as well. The overall dynamic range is completely displayed in the system’s control and does not require an extra adjustment of the speed range compared to other remote systems. The camera operator is able to keep both hands on the remote arms to operate efficiently. Experienced camera operators do not need to get accustomed to the new technology because the standard handling allows an absolutely precise and dynamic camera work.
The use of the Blackcam Remote Head was co-initiated by the OB van company TVN Mobile Production from Hannover, Germany. TVN was also responsible for the broadcast of the game on behalf of Sportcast.
