Iconix HD-RH1F Helps Broadcast Sports Cross the Finish Line (cont.)

Broadcast Sports uses the HD-RH1F to capture a variety of shots that would be difficult or even impossible to achieve with a larger camera, including speed shots taken from low to the ground right along the raceway, and pit overhead views that capture the entire car along and crew operation within the pit area. Ojason acknowledges that the work is not without risks. “We have totally destroyed two Iconix camera heads that were run over by cars that spun out of control,” Ojason explained. “However, in doing so, we captured two of the best racing shots of the past season. In the opinion of the networks we were shooting for, it was well worth the price of the camera and cable for the value of the shots we gained.”

“Our intent is never to interfere with the sport in our coverage,” Ojason concluded. “But if we have cameras that are small, light and out of the way, we can get very close to the action—and that is why we rely on the Iconix RH1F.”
