Sony SSC-DC83P

Features

Variable Gamma Curves

Users can choose from four preset gamma curves, including two unique gamma curves, which enable the brightness levels of captured images to be controlled precisely. By selecting a gamma curve that is appropriate for a given scene, captured images can be reproduced clearly and sharply.

CCD IRIS

The CCD IRIS function allows the use of a manual iris lens instead of a more costly automatic iris lens. As the image brightness increases, the camera adjusts the exposure by automatically reducing the CCD photo sensor's exposure time (charge accumulation time). This is achieved by using the CCD electronic shutter, which has a range of 1/60 (NTSC)/ 1/50 (PAL) to 1/100,000 second.

CS-/C-Mount Lens Compatibility

These cameras can be used with both CS- and C-mount lenses so that users can select the appropriate lens type to match the monitoring applications.

Sync System

The SSC-DC80/DC80P features an internal sync and a VS (Video and Sync)/VD for external synchronizations. The VD sync method contributes to easy installation since it eliminates the need for H-phase adjustment. The SSC-DC83/DC83P/DC88P features an internal sync and an AC line lock/VS for external synchronizations. When AC line lock is selected, the V-phase can be adjusted by ±90°.

Beneits

Privacy Zone Masking

With the Privacy Zone Masking function, unwanted or prohibited areas within an image can be masked. Up to two masking blocks can be freely selected in width and height. The masking areas are selectable from either the inside or the outside of the masking blocks.

Stylish Design

A stylish rear panel cover and transparent lens cap come as standard on these cameras, so the camera will not detract from the natural decor of the room in which they are installed.

Camera Title Indication

To easily identify individual cameras, users can assign a title of up to 24 characters to each unit, which can then be superimposed onto a video monitor screen. The position of the superimposed title is selectable from OFF, TOP LEFT, TOP RIGHT, BOTTOM LEFT, or BOTTOM RIGHT.

Custom Templates

To easily and quickly setup any of the SSC-DC80 Series cameras, appropriate values for each of the following settings can be preset as a Scene: Exposure, Auto Gain Control (AGC), Back Light Compensation (BLC), Video Level, Gamma Curve, and White Balance. Simply choose the appropriate Scene from the menu, and the camera settings are automatically changed. The following six preset Scenes are available: Building Entrance, Office, Parking Lot, Subway, Lobby, and Station.
