efficient and intelligent processing method based on the Sony DEPA
platform can
provide great operational efficiency and a high level of security. The SNC-DF80 and
SNC-DF50 incorporate advanced compression technologies to transmit image data in
three different formats: JPEG, MPEG-4, and H.264. These cameras also employ
robust detection methods – Intelligent Motion Detection (IMD) and Intelligent Object
Detection (IOD) – to maximize the efficiency of the monitoring system. For easy setup,
these cameras incorporate the Sony patented Ball-Joint Lens Mount mechanism,
which provides quick and easy adjustment of the camera‘s viewing angle during
installation. The SNC-DF80 camera is designed to be used both indoors and outdoors

incorporates unique Sony DynaView
technology to reproduce images with wide
dynamic ranges, making it ideal for use in extremely high-contrast environments.
With other useful features such as a Voice Alert function, Date/Time Superimposition,
and Privacy Zone Masking, these Sony intelligent mini-dome cameras are ideal for a
wide variety of surveillance and monitoring applications.

Intelligent video analytics is available when these cameras are used in conjunction with the Sony
Network Recorder NSR Series Ver. 4.0 or higher, the Sony Intelligent Monitoring Software
IMZ-RS400 Series Ver.4.0 or higher, or third-party hardware and software designed to operate with
these cameras to perform video analytics.

An optional YT-HU75 Heater Unit is required when the camera is used in temperatures less than
-13 °F (-10 °C).

Features
The DEPA Platform –
Intelligent Video Analytics
The SNC-DF80 and SNC-DF50 cameras offer intelligent
video analytics, based on the Sony DEPA platform.
This comprises two elements: intelligent built-in
camera functions, such as IMD and IOD, and
rules/filters that determine which images should be
recorded or when an alarm should be triggered.
When the network cameras perform IMD or IOD,
‘tagged’ objects and their associated metadata,
including object position data, are sent either to the
NSR Series recorder or the IMZ-RS400 Series software.
These products then use the metadata, together with
filters, to analyze object movement and to perform a
predefined action, such as image recording or alarm
triggering. This method of distributed processing
minimizes server workload, network bandwidth, and
storage requirements.
High-quality Images
SuperExwave Technology
The SNC-DF80 incorporates an advanced 1/3-type
CCD with SuperExwave technology that achieves
extremely high sensitivity levels. The camera provides
a minimum illumination of 0.6 lx in color and 0.06 lx
in B/W at F1.3, allowing it to capture clear and
detailed images even under low light conditions.
The high-quality CCD imager, in combination with
the camera’s state-of-the-art DSP technology,
produces a high horizontal resolution of 540 TV lines
via the analog composite video output, which
provides amazingly clear and detailed images.

Wide Dynamic Range With
DynaView Technology
The SNC-DF50 incorporates DynaView technology,
which dramatically improves camera dynamic range
by 128 times when compared to conventional
cameras. This results in clear image reproduction,
even in extreme high-contrast environments. The
camera captures the same image twice – first with a
normal shutter speed, and then with a high shutter
speed. The dark areas captured at normal shutter
speed and the bright areas captured at high shutter
speed are then combined into one image using an
advanced DSP LSI. Additionally, as these high-contrast
scenes may have different lighting conditions, two
white balance circuits are employed – one for
normal shutter speed and the other for high shutter
speed. This advanced technique reproduces highcontrast images with proper color.
