Camera Overview — Grass Valley LDX 100

The Grass Valley LDX 100 is a flagship studio camera built for demanding professional broadcast and live production environments. At its core is a 2/3-inch sensor delivering UHD resolution at 3840x2160, processed through Grass Valley's proprietary Xenios platform image processor. The camera supports an impressive range of frame rates — 24fps, 25fps, 30fps, 50fps, 60fps, 120fps, and up to 180fps — making it a capable tool for high-speed UHD capture in live broadcast scenarios.

Video output is 10-bit, with color profile support spanning HDR formats including HLG, PQ, and S-Log3, as well as SDR and Wide Color Gamut options, giving colorists and broadcast engineers meaningful flexibility in delivery workflows. The camera uses a B4 lens mount, standard in professional broadcast production, and is designed for external studio power rather than onboard battery operation. Build quality centers on ruggedized metal and composite construction with weather sealing, and the body weighs in at 2.9kg with dimensions of 380 x 167 x 253mm.

An optional EyeCatcher EC 2-100 LCD viewfinder with 960x540 resolution and 60Hz refresh rate is available, and the camera also features a 7-inch 1920x1080 LCD display. No internal storage media is included, consistent with its studio-integrated workflow design.
