Reality Intelligence Usability
The SNC-RZ50N is the latest in a series of Sony network cameras that incorporates
advanced image processing technology to provide three compression formats:
JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264.
*1
Users can choose any of the three compression
formats to match the network environment and application requirements.
Furthermore, with a newly developed "Dual Encoding Capability," the camera
allows for simultaneous streaming in JPEG and MPEG-4, further expanding
monitoring applications.
In addition to its Pan/Tilt capability, the SNC-RZ50N is equipped with a powerful 26x
optical zoom, allowing users to zoom in on small or distant objects with exceptional
clarity. And because the camera incorporates a Day/Night function, it provides clear
images in low-light environments and even in 0 lx

lighting conditions.
Combining other convenient features, such as Intelligent Motion Detection,
Intelligent Object Detection, Voice Alert, Built-in Compact Flash™ and PC card
slots, and an Image Flip function, the SNC-RZ50N can be used for a wide variety of
monitoring applications in location such as schools, shopping malls, public spaces,
and more!

H.264 compressed video cannot be viewed using a browser. This function is planned to be
available with a software upgrade in the future.

0 lx means absence of visible light to the naked eye. A separate IR illuminator, available through
third party vendors, is required for the camera to operate in 0 lx conditions.

FEATURES
Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) Capability (Fig. 1, 2)
The SNC-RZ50N is PTZ-capable with a pan
range of 340° and a tilt range of 115°, enabling
users to monitor a wide area. Also, with its
powerful 26x optical and 12x digital (312x total)
zoom, users can zoom in on small or distant
objects with exceptional clarity.
Selectable JPEG, MPEG-4,
H.264*3Compression Formats
The SNC-RZ50N supports three compression
formats, JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264. MPEG-4
provides clear moving images efficiently over
networks even with limited network bandwidth.
For higher compression, when bandwidth is even
more limited, H.264, which achieves two times
more compression than MPEG-4, is available.
If high quality still images are preferred, then the
industry standard JPEG compression format can
be chosen. The image size can be selected from
three modes to meet user’s network environment
and application requirements.

H.264 compressed video cannot be viewed using a
browser. This function is planned to be available with a
software upgrade in the future.

High-Quality Images
1/4-type Super HAD™ CCD
Employing the latest 1/4-type Super HAD CCD,
the SNC-RZ50N delivers exceptional picture
quality for user’s remote monitoring applications.
And with a minimum illumination level of 2.2 lx
at F 1.6 in color, the camera captures highcontrast images even in low-light conditions.
Dynamic Frame Integration
(Fig. 3)
The SNC-RZ50N incorporates Dynamic Frame
Integration technology to reproduce
clear and smooth images for both still and
moving objects within an image. The camera
detects movement within the image and
reproduces those areas in the image with
minimal blurring, while areas in the image with
little or no movement are displayed naturally
with minimal jagged edges. This unique
algorithm also takes advantage of the interlace
scanning CCD, which is inherently more sensitive
than progressive scan CCDs, providing clear
images even under low-lighting conditions.
High Frame Rate
The SNC-RZ50N supports a maximum frame
rate of 30 fps when the image size is VGA
(640 x 480) in both MPEG-4 and JPEG modes,
producing clear and smooth-moving images.
The frame rate can be set to meet user’s
network environment and system requirements.
