 The EX-view HAD CCD features 380,000 (NTSC)
TM
or 440,000 (PAL) effective picture elements and high-
sensitivity shooting. The minimum illumination
required is 0.9 lx ( / s (NTSC),

 The CCD features 380,000 (NTSC) or 440,000 (PAL)
effective picture elements and high-sensitivity
shooting. The minimum illumination required is 0.4
lx (1/60 s (NTSC), 1/50 s (PAL)). (FCB-EX12E/P,
CX12E/P only)
 A CCD for shooting a wide dynamic range is
employed to perform progressive or interlaced
scanning, and images with a wide dynamic range are
obtained by a newly developed image signal
processor (Wide Dynamic Range function).
Furthermore, it is possible to automatically switch to
this Wide Dynamic Range function, which enables
you to obtain optimal images ranging from the dark
areas of a subject to the light areas. (FCB-EX15E/P,
CX15E/P only)
 Low-noise images can be obtained even in low light
environments using the 3D Noise Reduction (3D NR
+ 2D NR) function.
 A function to output interlaced or progressive images
by digital output (equivalent to ITU-R BT656) is
provided. (FCB-EX15E/P, CX15E/P: Interlace mode
only)
 12× optical zoom (144× with digital zoom)
 Supporting external synchronization (V-lock)
 Images with a high resolution (550 TV lines) can be
obtained using a newly developed Image Signal
Processor for improved picture quality.
 An infrared (IR) Cut-Filter can be disengaged from
the image path for increased sensitivity in low light
environments. The ICR will automatically engage
depending on the ambient light, allowing the camera
to be effective in day/night environment.
 VISCA is a communications protocol, which enables
the camera to be controlled remotely from a host
computer/controller.
 Six memory locations are provided to temporally
save and recall up to six sets of camera settings.
