Features
Superior Picture Quality
– New ExwaveHAD
The DXC-990/990P incorporates newly developed 1/2 type IT (Interline Transfer)
ExwaveHAD technology. Inheriting the unique sensing technology of
the DXC-950/950P, the DXC-990/990P attains a high sensitivity of F11 at 2000 lx
while the improved HAD sensor structure drastically reduces smear level. This
permits images of the highest quality to be captured in difficult lighting
conditions. With the high packing density of these CCD image sensors and their
accurate spacial offsetting, a remarkably high horizontal resolution of 850 TV
lines is achieved. The combination of ExwaveHAD technology, improved
electronic circuitry and advanced video processing results in a high
signal-to-noise ratio of 63 dB (NTSC) and 62 dB (PAL).
Picture Contrast Controls
DynaLatitude Function
Automatically adjusts contrast corresponding to the brightest signal level of the
entire image. Clear images can be captured if both bright and dark areas exist
within the image.
OFF
ON
DCC + (Dynamic Contrast Control Plus)
Avoids hue factor distortion that can occur when subjects are very bright. DCC+
also automatically adjusts the knee point according to the contrast of the image.
OFF
ON

Black Stretch

Black stretch/compress enhances the gradation of the dark area by
stretching or compressing the range of the image.
Knee Control
By adjusting the knee, a knee point and knee slope are set so that the
highlighted areas of the picture can be clearly reproduced.
High/Normal/Low switchable

On-Screen Menu

The on-screen menu feature allows for quick and easy picture adjustments
while viewing the image. All camera control functions are accessible from

DSP (Digital Signal Processing)
The DXC-990/990P incorporates a new Sony 10-bit DSP technology.
DSP enables a variety of enhancement features and increases picture reliability
that cannot be achieved with analog signal processing.
The DXC-990/990P features several DSP functions for powerful picture controls.
Picture Enhancement Controls
Digital Detail
Adjusts the sharpness of the object outline with minimal noise.
This feature also enables horizontal detail frequency control.
Linear Matrix
Provides sophisticated electronic adjustment for accurate color reproduction by
adjusting color saturation and hue.

Partial Enhance
Allows a particular color to be selected, and its hue, saturation and detail
altered. In addition, the detail produced by the high resolution of the camera can
be softened or emphasized in certain parts of the image by the Partial Enhance
function.
