Camera Overview — Grass Valley LDX 92

The Grass Valley LDX 92 is a professional studio camera built for demanding live production environments. Centered around a 2/3-inch Xensium-FT CMOS sensor, it delivers HD video at resolutions up to 1920x1080, making it a capable workhorse for broadcast applications including news, sports, and entertainment programming. Video output reaches up to HD (1080i/720p) with frame rate options of 50fps and 59.94fps, giving operators flexibility across international broadcast standards.

The camera records in 10-bit color depth and supports both Standard Broadcast and HDR color profiles, providing meaningful latitude for broadcast-grade image delivery. The lens mount uses a bayonet system, standard for studio camera configurations, and the camera relies on external power via a base station for continuous operation — well suited to fixed studio or outside broadcast setups where uninterrupted power is a priority. The body is constructed from professional broadcast-grade material and carries a weather-sealed rating, adding resilience in varied production conditions.

Weighing 5kg with dimensions of approximately 160 x 180 x 340mm, the LDX 92 is sized for tripod or pedestal mounting rather than handheld use. Focus is entirely manual, consistent with studio camera workflows where dedicated camera operators handle framing and a separate focus puller or remote system manages optics. The external LCD viewfinder provides monitoring without a built-in display panel.
