Part No. PCI-4K-3D

The PROTON 4K 3D, the latest model from PROTON Camera Innovations distributed by Village Island in Japan, has won Best of Show at NAB Show 2026, one of the largest trade events in the broadcast and ProAV industry. The award recognizes it as an innovative stereoscopic 4K camera system among a large field of exhibited products.

The PROTON 4K 3D is designed for immersive content production requiring precise stereoscopic capture. Built on the proven PROTON 4K FLEX architecture, it combines two perfectly synchronized cameras into a single, streamlined system for true 3D imagery.

With frame-accurate synchronization, unified control through a shared CCU, and a compact design that allows optimal interocular positioning, the PROTON 4K 3D delivers natural depth perception alongside seamless integration into professional 3D workflows — opening up new creative possibilities for cinematic production, immersive content, and advanced storytelling where size, weight, and precision are critical.
