Other Features - Sony DXC-390P Specifications

AE (AUTOMATIC EXPOSURE)
AE automatically controls the level of brightness by varying the
exposure times. This is done by combining the CCD IRIS function,
AGC (Automatic Gain Control), and Auto Iris function of the lens.
The DXC-390/P is equipped with a number of convenient AE modes.
AE Level
Adjusts the standard brightness level by up to +/- one F-stop in a lens iris.
AE Speed
Selectable AE (Auto Exposure) conversion speed to suit
applications under varying lighting conditions.
AE Area
AE Area is a light metering system that includes six different modes.
MULTI

ELECTRONIC SHUTTER FUNCTIONS
Variable speeds
A variable speed electronic shutter is built into the CCD
imager, making it possible to capture blur-free, clear images
of high speed moving objects. The DXC-390/P features 10
different shutter speeds (OFF to 1/100,000), including
flickerless mode.
Long term exposure
The shutter speed can be manually selected from 1 to 255
frames (field mode) or 2 to 256 frames (frame mode) in one-
frame steps or from 0.1 to 8.0 seconds.
Clear Scan
™
The Clear Scan feature eliminates the horizontal bands that
appear across the screen when shooting a computer display.
This is achieved by matching the camera shutter speed with
the display scanning frequency.
CCD IRIS
When the level of incoming light exceeds the auto iris
adjustment range, the CCD IRIS function automatically
reduces the exposure in a range equivalent to 10 F-stops.
