London, UK, May 17, 2016: Leader Electronics Europe announces a major expansion of its sales and support representation in Britain with the appointment of Big Pic Media Limited, Boxer Systems Limited and Thameside as UK channel partners.
The broadcast media marketplace is now so diverse that having channel partners with specific experience of newly emerging sectors is essential, comments Kevin Salvidge, Leaders European Regional Development Manager. Big Pic Media brings a wealth of expertise in the rapidly developing UHDTV/4K marketplace, Boxer Systems has an unrivalled reputation in the file-based production arena, and Thameside is very highly regarded throughout the broadcast and post-production mainstream.
Having provided products and support to the digital film industry for many years, we are excited to be working with Leader, adds Big Pic Media Director Adam Welsh. Leader is one of the few companies that genuinely understand the requirements of production staff when it comes to monitoring images. Production crews these days do not have the luxury of a dedicated engineer. Creatives have to multitask. Leader products like CINEZONE and the recently introduced CINEZONE HDR are making it possible for film producers to carry across their skills into UHDTV and 4K.
Test and measurement is an area that is generating an increasing level of enquiries especially as broadcasters are migrating towards IP-based solutions, says Boxer CTO Marc Risby. It was great to have Leader on our booth at the London BVE show in February. Leader has an evident understanding of the requirements of broadcasters and productions companies as the industry migrates to higher resolution, wider dynamic range and IP infrastructure.'
We are very pleased to be continuing our long-standing relationship with Leader, adds Thameside Sales Manager Chris Margrave-Gregory. It was great to see Leader products on so many stands at the London BVE show in February, including Ikegami, Fujinon and Grass Valley. Living up to its name, Leader produces some of the most innovative waveform monitors and signal analysers currently available, notably the LV5490. Customers also have the option of investing in the LV5480 which combines excellent HD capabilities with the ability to add UHD features when needed.

Big Pic Media now has a new support function which will oversee design and installation services as well as offering engineering support for products supplied by Big Pic Media. This department can design, develop and install facility updates or entire facilities on request.
Boxer Systems Ltd (www.boxer.co.uk) has been working for over 25 years in the broadcast and post-production arena, supplying equipment and integrated systems to a range of clients including Arqiva, BBC, BSkyB, Thomson, Reuters, Channel 4, Perform Group, ITV, ITN, The Mill, MPC, Technicolor, Travel Channel and Liverpool FCTV. Boxer has confirmed its commitment to providing high-quality products and services by becoming ISO 9001:2008 registered. Continuing external assessment ensures a consistently high level of service.

Leader Electronics Corporation
Since its establishment more than 60 years ago, Leader (www.leader.co.jp) has earned a worldwide reputation for designing and manufacturing some of the most reliable, practical and cost-effective electronic instruments available. Leader products were originally developed for production testing and servicing. These are applications in which ease-of-use and highest reliability are essential. By expanding into a broad line of industrial and video instruments, Leader was able to add to these fundamental qualities a cost-performance ratio unequalled in the industry.
Manufacturing quality is built in every step of the way. Only the finest parts are used for optimum reliability. At each production run, sub-assemblies are separately tested before they are integrated into the finished product which is then further tested. Less than 1% of all Leader products made are ever returned for warranty repair or adjustment. Leader products, ranging from 4K waveform monitors to rasterizers and video test equipment, are specified for research, development, broadcast, production and service applications.
Leader produces high-precision test instruments that are reliable, easy to use, compact, and accountant-friendly. Leader innovations include the worlds first 4K waveform monitor (the award-winning LV5490) plus the intuitive CINELITE and CINEZONE monitoring tools which allow creatives to make optimal use of available dynamic range and luminance.
Re-established in 2015 by Leader Electronics (Yokohama, Japan), Leader Electronics Europe (www.leadereurope.com) provides customer support, sales and marketing services both for Leader and a select number of high-technology manufacturers with specific focus on the broadcast and professional video market.
Leader Europe operates a fast, efficient and highly experienced sales and support channel. Leader Europe has offices with local representation in the UK and an extensive channel partner network across Europe, providing pre-sales and post-sales service and support.
