Features
High picture quality
The SSC-DC372P and SSC-DC378P colour video
cameras incorporate a 1/3-type IT (Interline Transfer)
CCD with Super HAD technology that offers high
picture quality and high sensitivity. They achieve 
a horizontal-resolution of 480 TV lines, a minimum
illumination of 0.8 lx at F1.2 (50 IRE), and a 
signal-to-noise ratio of 50 dB or more. 
DSP Technology
These new cameras incorporate Sony’s latest Digital
Signal Processing (DSP) technology for powerful
picture-contrast control. Providing outstanding 
stability over long periods of time, and reliability 
levels unattainable with analog signal processors, 
the SSC-DC372P and SSC-DC378P colour cameras
capture superb images under various lighting 
conditions.
Compact and stylish design
With dimensions of 60 (W) x 54 (H) x 120 (D) mm 
and weighing 355g for SSC-DC372P and 385g for 
SSC-DC378P, these compact colour cameras can
easily be installed in places where space is limited
and where installation was previously difficult for 
larger cameras. Plus, their stylish and unobtrusive 
metallic-silver design will complement any décor. 
CCD IRIS
This function allows the use of a manual iris lens
instead of a more costly automatic iris lens. As the
scene illumination level increases, these cameras
respond by automatically reducing the exposure time
of the photo sensors. This is achieved by changing the
electronic shutter speed of the CCD, within the range
of 1/50 to 1/100,000 (PAL) of a second.
Back-Light Compensation (BLC)
Unwanted backlighting can often cause the subject
matter of the image to be cast into shadows. The
Back-Light Compensation (BLC) function incorporated
in these cameras automatically compensates for such
conditions and allows the subject to be more visible.
Auto-Tracing White Balance (ATW)
and Turbo AGC
The SSC-DC372P and SSC-DC378P colour video
cameras accommodate other convenient functions 
for enhanced operations in various lighting conditions. 
The Auto-Tracing White Balance function automatically
adjusts the camera white balance in accordance with
any changes in the lighting environment. While the
Turbo AGC allows the user to boost the camera gain
(up to 24 dB), enabling subjects to be more clearly
distinguished in low-light conditions.
