Features

The XC-333/333P is a subminiature color video camera

with an 1/4-inch CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) whose

camera head is detachable.

With the DSP (Digital Signal Processor), the unit obtains

many features including adjustment of color-matrix, which

ensures high picture quality in bright color.

Exposure areas

You can select among five different exposure areas for each

mode of AE (Automatic Exposure), AGC (Automatic Gain

Control) and CCD iris and you can select the peak/average

lighting for each area.

With backlight adjustment function you can shoot a subject

with proper lighting and obtain fine pictures even with the

light source behind the subject or a subject with a light

background.

Broad exposure control

Thanks to the AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and CCD iris

control functions, the camera can handle a broad range of

subject lighting conditions. When shooting in poor lighting

conditions, the AGC feature automatically increases the

sensitivity. When the amount of light is excessive, the CCD

iris control function automatically increases the shutter

speed to cut exposure. Combined use of AGC and CCD iris

control (AE control) allows for shooting in a broad range of

lighting conditions.

Adjustment of color-matrix

You can change the hue for each color, R (red), G (green)

and B (blue), as desired without losing white balance.

RS-232C interface

The unit can be controlled from a computer via an

RS-232C interface.
