RGB PRIMARY COLOUR FILTER

The MVX10i’s CCD uses an RGB Primary Colour Filter to separate light passing through the lens into individual red, green, and blue colour components – similar to professional 3CCD video cameras. As a result, the MVX10i achieves highly accurate colour, especially noticeable in skin tones.

DiG!C DV

DiG!C DV makes it possible to achieve accurate colour for both video and digital photos. Since video and photos have different colour requirements, DiG!C DV utilises two different colour techniques to maximise video quality on a TV and still image quality for print or computer display.
