3. KEY FEATURES

Basic Specifications

Features

■Small camera head

The DXC-C33/C33P can be installed in space-limited

locations. The size of the camera head unit (CHU) is

one of the smallest of all the 1/3 type 3-CCD

cameras.

■High picture quality

The DXC-C33/C33P can clearly capture detailed

object images. Using three 1/3 type CCDs, the

camera can realize 2000 lux at F8, a S/N ratio of 62

dB (NTSC) or 61 dB (PAL) and achieve a horizontal

resolution of 850 TV lines.

■Frame memory

Built-in frame memory can provide a remakable

freeze image and enhanced image sensitivity by

the Long-Term exposure function. Images captured

by the Long-Term exposure function can be output

continuously.

(Simulated picture)

Gain: 18 dB Long exposure: 32 frames

■10-bit DSP

The DXC-C33/C33P can capture superior pictures

by adopting full Digital Signal Processing (DSP) of

10 bits.

■Partial Enhance

This function allows a particular color to be selected, and its

hue, saturation and detail to be altered. In addition, the detail

produced by the high resolution of the camera can be

softened or emphasized in certain parts of the image with the

Partial Enhance function.

■Two AE areas preset

AE (Automatic Exposure) function is very useful in

determining the best area for incoming light metering.

Users can select and set up two of the six differentAE

modes and can easily switch them on the front panel.

• The Multi mode measures the luminance level on

the 9 divided windows and the center window is

weighted compared to the others.

• In Manual mode, the user can freely define the

light metering area.

■User-friendly control panel

The front panel is very easy to use with good-sized

switches that are smartly arranged.

■RS-232C interface

Easy control and operation of the camera by an

external computer is possible. For details of the

RS-232C protocol, please refer to the Control

Protocol or contact your nearest Sony office.

■External synchronization

(VBS Genlock, HD/VD)

The DXC camera can be synchronized with an

external VBS signal from other equipment and

includes a SC/H phase adjustment control. HD/VD

sync signals also can be accepted. This is very

useful in multiple camera operation and in

connection with frame grabber boards.

■Color shading compensation

The color shading compensation feature provides a

uniformed color for images displayed on the screen.

DXC-C33/C33P Product Information Manual

■i.LINKTM (DV) out

DV (Digital Video) is the standard for consumer digital video. DV complies with the same IEEE1394 interface

standard as the DFW Series. Thanks to data-compression technology, the transmission speed of DV is

approximately 25 Mb/s. This figure is about 1/5 of the transmission speed of the DFW Series (no compression).

DV can be connected to a PC and various application software is available for DV. Users can therefore enjoy the

high quality of DV compression with the excellent line-up of the DVCAM Series. The DXC-C33/C33P is equipped

with a DV output terminal so that images can be recorded into an i.LINK interface-equipped VTR with no quality

deterioration.

This feature is first to be introduced to small 3-CCD cameras.

Why was the DVCAM format Born?

The DVCAM format is optimized for professional editing, based on and maintaining cross play with the DV format.

Digitization

• High-quality picture and sound

• Superb dubbing quality

• Unique functions provided by compression technology

High-performance editing

capabilities for professional use

• SMPTE/EBU time code

• RS-422A interface

• Newly developed mechanism

The DVCAM format was developed to meet the following key demands:

•Digitization (trend from analog to digital)

•High-performance editing capabilities for professional use

•Full compatibility with the DV format

CONCEPT - What is the benefit of the DVCAM for the DXC-C33/C33P?

* i.LINK stands for IEEE-1394-1995 standards and their revisions.

Note: Sony VAIO computers are checked with Sony DV products, but not with DVCAM, concerning the i.LINK interconnection.

Some VAIO application software may not work with DVCAM.
