Sony DXC990
Color CCD Camera

If you need an affordable 1/2 type DSP 3CCD color video camera for remote camera applications, Sony's DXC-990 will shoot video wherever you go. Perfect for sports shooting, houses of worship, and boardrooms --and even microscopy-- the DXC-990 uses a bayonet-mount lens and provides a resolution of 850 TVL and a S/N ration of 63dB. The camera also incorporates Exwave HAD™ technology -- the Sony technology that greatly improves camera sensitivity (F11 @2000 lx) while reducing smear compared to previous CCD technologies.
