Product overview
The FCB-EX1000/P incorporates a high-sensitivity 1/4-type EXview HADTM CCD, which allows images to be captured at a minimum illumination as low as 0.1 lx.*2 With anewly developed slow AE response function, the camera can adapt to abrupt changes in light while capturing fine image details. In addition, the FCB-EX1000/P is equipped with a variety of convenient features such as spherical privacy zone masking, Electronic-Flip, Picture Freeze, and Auto IR-Cut Filter Removal, all of which have been inherited from current Sony FCB-EX Series cameras.

Slow AE Response Function*3
The FCB-EX1000/P is equipped with a Slow AE response function to automatically slow the rate at which camera exposure levels
change. This rate can be set up to 32 times slower than when Full-Auto AE or Priority (shutter/ iris) modes are selected.*4
The Slow AE response function is useful when monitoring areas in which lighting conditions change abruptly. For example, if
the camera is used to monitor the flow of nighttime traffic when vehicle headlights are pointed directly towards it, the camera’s
exposure level is reduced slowly. This can allow users to monitor and identify crucial parts of the image that surround the
headlights, such as the car’s license plate or the driver’s face.
*3 This function can be set using VISCATM protocol.
*4 The rate at which camera exposure levels are adjusted when in Full-Auto AE or Priority modes is just under one second.
Auto IR Cut Filter Removal (ICR)
For optimized sensitivity in both day and night shooting applications, these cameras incorporate an Auto ICR function. At
a set level of darkness, the IR Cut filter is automatically disabled (ICR ON) and the infrared sensitivity is increased. Conversely,
at a set level of brightness, the filter is automatically enabled (ICR OFF). The ICR function will automatically engage itself
depending on the level of ambient light, so that the camera can be effective in a variety of lighting conditions.
Spherical Privacy Zone Masking
Unwanted or prohibited areas within an image can be masked precisely and appropriately. If the FCB-EX1000/P is integrated
into a Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) camera system, this technology can keep masking areas interlocked with PTZ movements regardless
of the camera angle.
