Abstract
A broadcast camera is provided that includes a camera housing having connectable camera housing portions to define a front, middle and rear sections of a camera body. An electronic component is provided in the front section of the camera housing and a power transformer is mounted in the rear section of the camera housing. A duct housing is mounted within the camera housing to form a cooling duct that extends through the camera housing, with a front duct housing that is positioned adjacent to the electronic component and that separates the electronic component from the cooling duct. Moreover, heat sinks extend within the cooling duct in one of the upper, middle and lower front duct sections and are mounted to be in thermal communication with the at least one electronic component. A fan is mounted within the cooling duct to draw air into the cooling duct.
