Sony introduces the SSC-DC314 1/3 type Super HAD CCD™
high resolution camera specifically designed for surveillance
and monitoring applications.
The Super HAD CCD provides high resolution and
sensitivity,allowing the camera to reproduce clear,identifiable
pictures even in low light conditions. The SSC-DC314 also
incorporates DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology to
provide a high level of stability and reliability that cannot be
achieved with analog signal processing. In addition, this
cameraoffers ahost ofoutstanding featuressuch asBacklight
Compensation (BLC), Aperture Control, Auto Tracing White
balance (ATW) and Turbo AGC™.
Offering excellent performance, with an unbeatable cost-
performance ratio, the Sony SSC-DC314 camera is ideal for a
wide range of demanding surveillance applications.

High picture quality
The SSC-DC314 camera incorporates a 1/3 type IT (Interline
Transfer) Super HAD CCD to give it superb horizontal resolution
of 480 TV lines. Sony Super HAD CCD technology offers
remarkably high sensitivity from the use of an improved
microlens over each pixel of the CCD. This results in greater
convergence of light onto the photo-sensitive layer of the CCD
so that a light level of only 1.5 lx (F1.2 at 50 IRE) is required for
clear image acquisition.
DSP Technology
The SSC-DC314 camera includes DSP (Digital Signal
Processing) technology that delivers excellent picture
performance. Thistechnology also providesoutstandingstability
over long periods of time and a level of reliability that cannot be
achieved with analog signal processing.
BLC (Backlight Compensation)
Strong backlighting can often cause the subject of the picture to
becastinto shadows. The SSC-DC314 cameracanautomatically
compensate for these backlight conditions by using Back Light
Compensation (BLC) mode. This makes the subject more easily
visible, providing an improved level of object recognition.
Aperture Sharp Mode
Aperture Sharp Mode makes object outlines sharper in the
reproduced picture. This mode is ideal for situations where the
object merges into the scene with a similar color shade. This
feature is also effective when a VCR is connected as it allows
sharp, crisp images to be recorded.
