BVP-E10 Series Product Information Manual
The BVP-E10 is an outstanding colour video camera
that incorporates Sony ADSP (Advanced Digital Signal
Processing) and 12-bit A/D conversion. Using the new
Power HAD EX CCD with its excellent highlight
handling, the BVP-E10 provides a 900 TV line
resolution (4:3), or 700TVL (16:9) and achieves the
remarkably low smear level of
• 140dB. Just some of the state-of-the-art features are:
• Triple skin tone detail
• Adaptive detail control
• Fine detail
• Electronic soft focus
• Adaptive highlight control
• Knee saturation
• Low key saturation control
• 3-D white shading
• Multi matrix control
• Skin tone auto iris
These improvements contribute to an unsurpassed
image quality, making the BVP-E10 ideal for a wide
range of applications from field acquisition to studio/
OB camera system. The BVP-E10 can be controlled
either at the camera head or by remote control through
studio system peripherals such as the CCU-900/ 900P/
700A/ 700AP/ 550A/ 550AP Camera Control Unit,
MSU-700A/ 750 Master Set-up Unit and CNU-700/
CNU-500 Camera Command Network Units.
The flexible interfacing of the BVP-E10 means that it
is not only a high-end broadcasting camera with the
latest technology, but it can also be easily integrated
into the familiar studio/ OB vehicle systems that use
earlier models of Sony cameras.
