TAMBERELLI VIDEO MEETS GROWING DEMAND
WITH IKEGAMI HL-DV7W DVCAMS

NEW YORK: Tamberelli Video Production Services, one of New York City's most comprehensive rental and production houses, knows a good thing when it sees it, and so do its customers. To keep pace with the growing demand for Ikegami HL-DV7W DVCAMs, the company has added substantially to its stock. The new cameras give Tamberelli Video a total number of 14 Ikegami HL-DV7Ws to keep up with client needs in broadcast, documentaries, independent features and corporate applications.

"Ikegami has made a very accessible product with the HL-DV7W", says Anthony Tamberelli, Jr., Vice President of Tamberelli Video. "DVCAM and Mini-DV are great acquisition formats, and the HL-DV7W is on the cutting edge - the way this camera looks and functions has really impressed us and our customers."

The Ikegami HL-DV7W meets the exacting standards of today's DVCAM shooter with broadcast standard image quality, courtesy of a new digital process LSI (ASIC) that includes a six-axis linear matrix system for finely tuned color. Multiple GAMMA settings, lens and scene data files, Smartmedia card slot for full camera set up, and a low center of gravity make the HL-DV7W unmatched for versatility and convenience in the field.

With high levels of performance, ease of use and ruggedness, the HL-DV7W fits right in with Tamberelli's promise of quality gear. "The sharpness of image and color quality of the Ikegami cameras is amazing," he says. "The scene files and personal function keys are also very easy to navigate. They’ve also proven extremely durable - we currently have a number of the HL-DV7Ws in the desert for the documentary 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' Even though they're working in sand, there's been no head clogs or any other malfunctions, which is amazing."

Backed by Ikegami's top support team, Tamberelli Video knows it has a winning package in the Ikegami HL-DV7W. "With every piece of gear I rent out, my reputation is on the line," Anthony Tamberelli, Jr. notes. "It's very rewarding to have equipment like the HL-DV7W that exceeds clients" needs and keeps their stress levels down. Knowing that I can send my Ikegami cameras out into the worst of circumstances and not have to worry about them - that's a huge plus."
