XC-ST70CE : 2/3″ CCD, Mono, PAL 570 TV, Global, Analog, 30fps
The XC-ST70CE camera represents Sony’s next generation of analog 2/3″ black and white video cameras, ideal for image processing and machine vision applications. (The XC-ST70CE is the CCIR standard model.) The XC-ST70CE is a compact, lightweight, black and white video camera incorporating the latest 2/3″ Interline Transfer (IT) CCD with HAD technology providing 768 (H) x 494 (V) effective picture elements and incorporating a C-Mount type lens mount. The XC-ST70EC is easy to use and its small size allows for flexible interface.
- 2/3″ IT HAD CCD
- All controls outside the camera
- High Sensitivity: 0.3 lx (F1.4)
- High S/N ratio: 60 dB
- Simplified and more flexible trigger from previous models
- Small, light weight, one piece camera
- Excellent vibration and shock characteristics
- Small and light weight power adaptor
The XC-ST70CE uses the latest 2/3″ Interline Transfer (IT) CCD with HAD technology which is more sensitive than the CCD used in the XC-77 camera family. These new CCDs have a microlens over each pixel to significantly improve the light collection efficiency. This is reflected in the minimum sensitivity specification of 0.3 lx. That means the camera should be able to detect more faint signals or need less gain with less noise when detecting faint signals.
