State-of-the-Art SuperExwave CCD technology
The SSC-E473 incorporates a newly developed 1/3-type CCD with SuperExwave technology that achieves extremely high sensitivity levels and produces high-quality images. This CCD imager provides a minimum illumination of 0.55 lx at F1.2, enabling the camera to capture clear and detailed images even under low light conditions. Additionally, the camera reproduces images with a high picture quality of 380,000 pixels and have an excellent S/N ratio of more than 50 dB.

Innovative DSP Technology
Unlike conventional DSPs, the newly developed DSP technology employed in the camera increases the horizontal resolution attainable by the CCD. Due to a combination of this DSP technology and the SuperExwave CCD technology, the camera offers a high horizontal resolution of 540 TV lines, providing amazingly clear and detailed images.

Day/Night function
The SSC-E473 features a "Day/Night" capability, which provides optimized sensitivity in both day- and night-shooting applications. As the scene darkens, an infrared filter is automatically replaced with a clear filter and the camera switches to black-and-white mode, allowing for operation at a minimum illumination of 0.05 lx.

Slim and Stylish Design
The slim and lightweight camera can easily be installed in places where space is limited and where installation was previously difficult for larger cameras. A stylish rear panel cover and transparent lens cap come as standard on the camera, so the camera will not detract from the natural decor of the room in which they are installed.

Wide Auto Tracing White (ATW) Range
ATW is a feature that automatically adjusts the camera's white balance to adapt to changing light conditions. The SSC-E473 provides an extremely wide ATW range of 2,000 K to 10,000 K, allowing adjustment-free operation under a variety of light conditions. Users can choose from two modes: ATW Pro and ATW. ATW Pro mode is particularly suited to applications where the operator needs to see objects as they appear to the eye. This ensures that a precise color image is always obtained.

Turbo AGC
The SSC-E473 camera is equipped with an advanced Turbo AGC function. This allows the user to boost camera gain to 24 dB, enabling viewers of the image to distinguish the subject more easily - even if it is shot in low light. The AGC mode is switchable between OFF and TURBO.

Back-Light Compensation (BLC)
Unwanted backlighting can often cause the subject matter of an image to be cast into shadow. The BLC function incorporated in the camera automatically compensates for such conditions and allows the subject to be more visible.

CCD IRIS
The CCD IRIS function allows the use of a manual iris lens instead of a more costly automatic iris lens. As the image brightness increases, the camera adjusts the exposure by automatically reducing the CCD photo sensor's exposure time (charge accumulation time). This is achieved by using the CCD electronics shutter, which has a range of 1/60 to 1/100,000 second.

DC-Servo Lens Connection Capability
The SSC-E473 camera supports the widely available DC-servo lenses.

CS-Mount
The camera is equipped with a CS-mount, which provides compatibility with industry-standard CS-mount lenses.

AC 24 V/DC 12 V Operation
The SSC-E473 accepts both AC 24 V and DC 12 V power sources, and will automatically switch to the appropriate mode upon receiving power.

Sync System
The sync system of the camera can be switched between internal lock and AC line lock. When AC line lock is selected, the V-phase can be adjusted by ± 90°C.
