FEATURES

Sony's new DFW-SX910 and DFW-X710 cameras are the latest additions to its range of IEEE 1394 (FireWire®) color digital cameras. Incorporating an IEEE 1394 digital interface, these advanced digital cameras produce uncompressed, high resolution, digital color images. Both cameras employ a new, next generation progressive scan CCD with square pixels as well as a primary filter for superb color reproduction and excellent sensitivity.

The DFW-SX910 is equipped with a 1/2 type 1,450,000-pixel CCD and offers SXGA resolution images, while the DFW-X710 is equipped with a 1/3 type 800,000-pixel CCD. Both models incorporate a variety of convenient features such as partial scan

(16 x 16 zones), selectable output modes (image size/ frame rate) and an external trigger function with an exposure range from 1/100,000 to 17.5 seconds, allowing for the clear capture of fast moving objects or still images in low light environments. In addition, their compact and lightweight design make them easy to install and ideal for a variety of industrial applications such as machine vision, semiconductor inspection, image processing, print inspection, microscopy, and factory automation. What's more, the automatic white balance feature allows for professional operation even in changing light conditions.

Combining high resolution, compact design and a wide range of feature-rich functions, the DFW-SX910 and the DFW-X710 cameras are the right choice for quality-critical imaging applications.
