Marshall Continues to Elevate POV Camera Line With Latest Sensor Technology at NAB 2023
Marshall Electronics is announcing the next generation of Marshall POV cameras developed around a brand new highly optimized Sony sensor at NAB 2023 (Central Hall, Booth C5520). These new models will elevate the Marshall POV cameras to the next level of technology delivering improved video performance with cleaner, crisper images, greater pixel sensitivity and better color reproduction. Complementing the new sensors with high end processors further refines signal structure and enhances depth of remote adjust and match capabilities.
The Marshall CV226 All-Weather Lipstick camera was the first model to make the upgrade and is now offered as the CV228 All-Weather Lipstick Camera. The CV228 has 3GSDI, remote adjust/match, swappable lenses and improved video performance. The camera also has the added ability for firmware updates to be performed in the field matching all other Marshall POV cameras. The new CV228 is also designed with additional cable reinforcement and flexibility to cater to the usual heavy use of these models. In the development timeline there will be several additional models making the switch to the new design, including the CV503 to the CV504, the CV506 to the CV508 and the CV344 to the CV348.
Budweiser Events Center Turns to JVC for a Variety of Video Applications
The Budweiser Events Center, an OVG360-managed, multi-purpose arena located within The Ranch Events Complex in Loveland, Colorado, hosts some of the community’s most exciting events. The venue is primarily known for being home to the AHL’s Colorado Eagles hockey team, but also presents rodeos, monster truck shows, arena motocross, concerts and state basketball games. To provide quality video for its broadcasts, along with game film for the Colorado Eagles to review, the events center turns to JVC Professional Video KY-PZ100 PTZ cameras.
Like many other institutions during the pandemic, the Budweiser Events Center had to find new ways to produce content. The arena was no longer able to present anthems or other special ceremonies from the ice, which led them to create a production space with a camera deck out of what was previously a utility area for spotlights. Needing to produce content at a further distance than ever before, the Budweiser Events Center team required a better PTZ with broadcast-quality video. Building off the Eagles’ previous experience using JVC GY-HM850 cameras for game film, the production team knew they could once again entrust the brand to do the job.
Marshall Announces new NDI|HX3 POV Camera Lineup at NAB 2023
Marshall Electronics continues to evolve its product offerings with the latest NDI codecs and will be showcasing four (4) new camera models at NAB 2023 (Central Hall, Booth C5520). The CV570/CV574 Miniature Cameras and CV370/CV374 Compact Cameras all feature low latency NDI|HX3 streaming as well as standard IP (HEVC) encoding with SRT, while also offering an HDMI simultaneous output for traditional workflows.
“Marshall looks forward to introducing four new POV cameras at this year’s NAB show,” says Tod Musgrave, Director of Cameras for Marshall Electronics. “NDI has been a great success for Marshall with a variety of options from which to choose, including zoom and full PTZ models. Adding NDI|HX3 and IP to our miniature POV camera line was inevitable and doing so with high-end UHD sensors is a very exciting development.”

“The addition of the NDI®|HX3 option for our PTZ cameras with NDI® capabilities will provide users with a greater level of flexibility without the need to replace their hardware,” says Joseph D’Amico, Vice President, JVCKENWOOD USA Corporation. “According to Vizrt, media organizations’ adoption of NDI®-enabled devices is growing at a record pace, and we are thrilled to be part of the network of manufacturers to offer this solution.
