3CCD camera
Explanation:
3CCD Camera System

Because CCDs are critical to image quality, all professional video cameras use 3CCD systems. In this system, a prism splits the incident light into its three primary colours (red, green and blue) and each resultant colour signal is collected by a separate CCD. The 3CCD system reproduces colours with exceptional fidelity and captures even subtle gradations. Advanced Panasonic technology has made the 3CCD system small enough for home video cameras. The GS200 and GS120, which debut as the world's smallest 3CCD cameras, deliver the images with natural, true-to-life colours anywhere you go.

3CCD camcorder or 3CCD video camera would be more precise in your context, I guess.

agree Tony M: For general use, I would go with this version of the term, 'triple' sounds stilted to my ears. I would favour the version with either a space or a hyphen, as being more common, as well as easier to read!
