FCB-EX985E , FCBEX985E
Sony Colour NTSC 28X Block Camera
 

 

 
Sony is expanding its popular FCB block camera series with the introduction of eight new E Version block cameras. FCB-EX985E & FCB-EX985E/P cameras combine superb picture quality with high zoom capabilities ranging from 18x to 28x. The FCB E cameras are equipped with IP-ready digital output and enhanced white balance functions compared to prior FCB models.

The FCB-EX985E/P is the replacement camera for the FCB-EX980/P.

New Features and Benefits

Digital Output (ITU-R BT656) : By using the digital interface, the quality of the camera's video signal does not deteriorate. This can lead to cost savings due to the direct connection to codecs/systems without the need for any additional components.

Temperature Readout: The value of the internal temperature of the FCB E Version cameras can be read out via the VISCA™ protocol. When checking the internal temperature of equipment (i.e., speed dome unit), it is possible to use this data to turn a fan or heater on/off inside the equipment as needed.

Colour Enhancement: Ideally suited for low vision applications, new colour enhancement options can make reading text and pictures less challenging. Available options include monochrome, binary, inverted and enhanced color modes.


Other Key Features:

  • White Balance: Auto Outdoor mode, Sodium Vapor Lamp Mode
  • Auto Wide-D Mode
  • 2D/3D Noise Reduction
  • Auto ICR
  • Spherical Zone Masking
  • Motion Detection
  • Alarm
  • Slow AE response
