International. The new model combines the improved resolution of 4K with sensitivity in low-light environments and benefits from the CMOS image sensor.
In the framework of IFSEC 2015 (June 16 to 18) Sony will present its latest range of video surveillance solutions aimed at a wide number of markets, such as commerce or banking, where it will exhibit its new 4K video surveillance camera SNC-VM772R. The new model combines the improved resolution of 4K with sensitivity in low-light environments and benefits from the 1.0-type backlit Exmor R CMOS image sensor, bandwidth optimization features and intelligent scene capture to adopt the best image quality.
4K technology gives users the ability to capture content with four times the resolution of Full HD (1080p). Thanks to the exceptional level of detail of 4K technology, professionals in the sector will be able to expand their surveillance area, take snapshots, enlarge them and examine even the smallest detail of an image, such as a face or the license plate of a car, and all with a single camera. The SNC-VM772R combines these advantages with improved visibility, reduced total system cost, as well as flexible and easy installation for consumers.
Sony has developed several unique technologies to overcome the challenges of 4K cameras on the market: by improving visibility and light sensitivity, along with reducing the bandwidth needed to handle large 4K files. Traditionally, a higher resolution has been a detriment in the level of sensitivity in low light. However, the new SNC-VM772R uses a 20-megapixel Exmor R type 1.0 CMOS sensor and has a sensitivity of 0.1 lx to capture sharp images in light and dark situations.
The backlit structure doubles the camera's light sensitivity and the built-in infrared (IR) light source improves low-light use and nighttime recording for better long-distance visibility. To cover large surfaces, there are various lighting conditions during the day and night. The SNC-VM772R also features a wide dynamic range of 90 dB and 30 fps that provide clear, sharp images to improve visibility and recognition capability.
Finally, the 2.9x motorized zoom lens adapts to the image sensor to maximize video resolution. The lens also has image stabilization and allows you to capture images with reduced distortion.
