Sony SSC-E453P Sony color video camera
Sony introduces new SSC-E450 series camera in order to further strengthen Sony's
analogue security camera line-up. This new SSC-E450 series is included in the category
called CS-Mount Color High Resolution type which occupies the largest sales volume
category within the world wide analogue security camera market. The market share of
CS-Mount Color High Resolution type category among all analogue security cameras occupies
thirty percent in terms of world wide quantity base. Sony currently has two SSC series
(SSC-DC390 series and SSC-DC370 series) within the CS-Mount Color High Resolution type
category. SSC-DC390 series is currently the best selling model among all Sony analogue
security camera line-up.
A Wide Auto Tracing White Range - ATW Pro & ATW
ATW is a feature that automatically adjusts the camera white balance to adapt to changes
in lighting conditions. The SSC-E450 Series provides an extremely wide ATW range of 2,000
K to 10,000 K, allowing adjustment-free operation under a variety of light conditions.
Users can choose from two modes: ATW Pro and ATW. ATW Pro mode is ideal when the lighting
condition changes frequently and is particularly suited to applications where the operator
needs to see objects as they appear to the eye. This ensures that the precise color image
is always obtained.
Back Light Compensation
Unwanted backlighting can often cause the subject matter of the image to be cast into
shadows. The BLC function incorporated in these cameras automatically compensates for such
conditions and allows the subject to be more visible. The BLC mode is selectable between
OFF and ON.
CCD IRIS
The SSC-E450 Series have CCD-IRIS function to automatically adjust the shutter speed
depending on the amount of incident light. As the image brightness increases, the camera
adjusts the exposure by automatically reducing the CCD photo sensor's exposure time
(charge accumulation time). The CCD-IRIS enables to continuously control the exposure by
electronically adjusting the shutter speed in the range from 1/60(NTSC) / 1/50(PAL) second
to 1/100,000 second. Manual iris lens with CCD-IRIS function can be used instead of more
costly automatic iris lens. Instead of CCD-IRIS function, FLC (Flicker Less Control)
function is used for the SSC-E450.
Turbo AGC
The SSC-E450 Series cameras are equipped with an advanced Turbo AGC function. This allows
the user to boost camera gain up to 24 dB, enabling viewers of the image to distinguish
the subject more easily - even if it is shot in low light. The AGC mode is selectable
between OFF and TURBO.
State-of-the-Art SuperExwaveTM Technology
The SSC-E450 Series incorporates a newly developed 1/3-type CCD with SuperExwaveTM
technology that achieves extremely high sensitivity levels and produces high quality
images. This CCD imager provides a minimum illumination of 0.55 lx at F1.2, enabling
cameras to capture clear and detailed images even under low light conditions. What's more,
these cameras reproduce images with a high picture quality of 380,000 pixels
(SSC-E450/E453) / 440,000 pixels (SSC-E453P/E458P) and have an excellent S/N ratio of more
than 50 dB.
Newly developed innovative DSP Technology
Unlike conventional DSP's, the newly developed DSP technology employed in these cameras
increases the horizontal resolution attainable by the CCD. Thanks to a combination of this
DSP technology and the SuperExwave CCD technology, these cameras offer a high-horizontal
resolution of 540 TV lines, providing amazingly clear and detailed images.
Slim and Stylish Design
These slim and lightweight color cameras can easily be installed in places where space is
limited and where installation was previously difficult for larger cameras. A stylish rear
panel cover and transparent lens cap come as standard on these cameras so that they will
not detract from the natural décor of the room in which they are installed.
