Welcome to Budget Multi-Camera

Budget Video Rentals Multi-Camera Division has a wide variety of high definition (and even standard definition) camera packages that are set up for multi-camera operations - either switched, iso, or both.

One of the latest hot packages is the Sony EX-3 cameras in high definition, switched on the For-A HVS-500HS Portable HD/SD 8 input Switcher or the Panasonic AV-HS400A HD/SD Switcher. The For-A comes with a set of as many HD color color monitors as needed at no charge.

Multiple Sony CineAlta or Panasonic Varicam, HDX-900, or almost any recently manufactured cameras are all in stock. Free paintboxes and cables back to the control area included. RTS intercom system is in the systems with as many drops as required and headsets designed for comfort or high noise.

A recent shoot involved a set of four Sony EX-3 and similar cameras all run into the high def switcher, being operated as "live to tape." The walk away item was a handful of XDCAM HD disks which in post production made for a very fast edit and almost instant DVD creation.

MULTICAMERAS FOR YEARS

Budget Video Rentals inventory has been developed over 37 years in the very same North Miami building. We have been supplying tv broadcast triax multicamera systems for years, and now have translated that experience to the new technologies. HDSDI and firewire are new magic words. We have the only 24P switcher in rental anywhere near this market.
WE WILL FLY LIGHTWEIGHT MULTICAMERA PACKAGES ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.

SONY EX-3 XDCAM

One of the more popular cameras this week is the Sony EX3 XDCAM. This camera employs HDSDI and has a time code input. With our Clockit Boxes we can make sure all material from every camera has the identical frame accurate time code for post production ease and assistance. These unique Sony cameras also function with the Sony RMB-150 paint boxes so that remote cameras can all be monitored and when the exposure is not perfect, a twist of the dial rather than a call to someone on headset to adjust. Colors can be painted so that the skin color and clothing all match, camera to camera.

All this saves a LOT OF MONEY in post and improves the production quality to virtually broadcast standard.

REDUNDANCY

We at Budget Video Rentals will wire everything up and give you a backup recording of the line cut, and you at the same time have ISO recordings from every camera on the shoot.

PRICING

We do all the above with an eye to creating a price point that can not be beat. Guaranteed to be the lowest price in your stack of quotes, and more complete than anything that can be done in this market.
