Intelligent compact network mini-
dome camera with Sony-unique
DynaView technology

This powerful yet compact network camera supports an
efficient and intelligent processing method called intelli-
gent video analytics. This determines automatically when
an image should be recorded or an alarm should be
triggered. Coupled with this intelligence, the camera deliv-
ers a dramatic improvement in dynamic range (128 times
that of a conventional camera) thanks to Sony-unique
DynaView technology. This makes the camera ideal in ex-
tremely high-contrast environments. Designed for indoor
use, its clever design saves time and effort at installation,
and gives you true location flexibility.

This feature dramatically improves the camera’s dynamic
range (128x greater than a conventional camera) by cap-
turing the same image twice (the dark areas at normal
shutter speed; then the bright areas at high shutter
speed) and combining these into one image using an ad-
vanced DSP LSI.

Based on the Sony Distributed Processing Architecture
(DEPA) platform, this efficient and intelligent processing
method comprises intelligent built-in camera functions -

such as Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD) and Intelligent
Object Detection (IOD) - and rules or filters that determine
which images should be recorded or when an alarm
should be triggered.

This multi-codec camera supports three compression
formats: JPEG, the best choice of high-quality still im-
ages; MPEG-4, the format that provides clear moving im-
ages efficiently over limited-bandwidth networks; and
H.264, the alternative for severely limited-bandwidth net-
works, providing twice the efficiency of MPEG-4. The
camera can generate JPEG and MPEG-4 images
simultaneously.

This mechanism is incorporated into the vari-focal lens,
enabling the lens to be rotated freely in any direction. Un-
like conventional cameras, a simple single action is all
that’s required to adjust the pan and tilt angle. It provides
quick and easy adjustment of the camera’s viewing angle
during installation.

This camera is easily wall-mounted or ceiling mounted.
Camera focus and viewing angle can be easily and accur-
ately adjusted using the secondary video output (the RCA
phono jack, located at the rear of the camera along with a
BNC video output).

Equipped with a 3.6x zoom vari-focal lens, this camera
can cover an extremely wide range of viewing angles
from 100.8° (wide angle) to 27.2° (telephoto). This feature
provides installation flexibility for a number of different ap-
plications and locations
