By adopting a double-speed 410.000 pixel
Sony CCD, the camera produces clear
picture quality with a horizontal resolution of
560 TV lines for color, and 600 TV lines for
B/W.
DNR (Digital Noise Reduction)
The amount of low illuminance noise
has been significantly reduced, and the
signal-to-noise ratio(S/N) as well as
horizontal resolution have been improved,
resulting in a clear and sharp image display
even in the dark.
Wide Dynamic Range /WDR)
The camera delivers clear, high quality
pictures even in backlight, by increasing
exposure in dark areas while decreasing it
in bright areas; a corrected image with clear
details results.
