DSP Technology
This new camera incorporates 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-DC374 color camera
captures superb images under various lighting

Compact and Stylish Design
With dimensions of 60 (W) x 54 (H) x 120 (D) mm
and weighing only 355 g, this compact color
camera can easily be installed in places where
space is limited. Plus, its stylish and unobtrusive
metallic-silver design complements 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, this
camera responds 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 1/60 to
1/100,000 (NTSC) 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 this camera
automatically compensates for such conditions
and allows the subject to be more visible.

The SSC-DC374 color video camera accommodates

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.
