Xavier University in Cincinnati has chosen Ikegami HDK-99 cameras as part of an upgrade to its athletics live production facilities. The cameras will be deployed for live-to-air program production and in-venue videoboard productions at Cintas Center and other athletics venues. 

"Dockable cameras were the logical choice because they can be operated in studio, stage or outdoor locations," says the Cintas Center's senior associate technical director, Chris Schaaf. "Ikegami's HDK-99 camera systems tick every box in terms of image quality, versatility, ease of control and physical robustness. They incorporate all the creative tools we desired, while also being easy to use for less experienced operators. Ease of setup, along with fantastic build quality, make them a great choice for college sports where it’s not a matter of if but when the camera will take a hit from someone or something."
