High Sensitivity
The built-in high sensitivity SONY COLOR CCD enables a clear
image even in 0.3Lux(0.1Lux B/W) or as low as 0.002Lux with
SENS-UP.
DNR (Digital Noise Reduction)
The amount of low illuminance noise has been significantly
reduced, and the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N ratio) as well as
horizontal resolution have been improved, resulting in a clear and
sharp image display even in the dark.
Controlled by OSD Menu
The camera can be controlled by selecting text displayed on the
monitor screen.
Additional Functions
SENS-UP, MOTION DETECTION, MIRROR, SHARPNESS and
SYNC (INT/LL) functions are also available.
Horizontal Resolution 530 TVLines
Clear image quality has been achieved by employing a SONY
CCD with 410,000(effective) pixels, which provides a horizontal
resolution of 530 TV lines.
DAY & NIGHT
This camera has a function that automatically selects the mode
that is appropriate for daytime or night-time conditions. The
COLOR mode operates in daytime conditions to provide optimum
colors, and BW mode operates in nighttime conditions to enhance
the definition of the image.
Electronic IRIS
The electronic IRIS function enables continuous automatic control
of the shutter between 1/60~1/120,000 seconds.
PRIVACY Function
The PRIVACY function conceals the areas you do not wish to
appear on the screen.
