Camera Accessories
Due to the increased use of record run timecode when recording sound on DAT recorders, and the need to display this code in front of the camera, Ambient has developed the 'Master Radio Slate'.
This slate has all the features of the standard Master slate, but has a built-in UHF telemetry receiver and separate, very small transceiver to attach to the timecode source or recorder. Range is typically 50 metres, but in certain circumstances, can be much greater.
The slate also has a slip-on writing sleeve (280mm wide) which gives the slate a wide screen format, and additional writing space. The sleeve is easily removed for close up shots. A further useful feature is a 'flash on close' option to aid Telecine syncing.
