FEATURES
1/3” 3-CCD Camera
The KY-F550U is an ultra-compact high-performance 3-CCD camera that utilizes
12-bit A/D conversion and 24-bit digital signal processing for high picture
stability, fine detail, and exceptional picture quality. Fully featured, yet weighing
only1.1lbs., it offers a wide range of standard input and output connections
which simplifies integration into a broad array of imaging applications. Ideal
for computer imaging, microscopy, videoconferencing, distance learning,
remote control, and surveillance applications where the finest detail and
picture quality is required.
The KY-F550U accepts a C-Mount lens, or with an adapter, can be connected to
microscope, slit lamp, operation microscope, shadowless lamp, etc. It offers a built-in
IEEE1394 interface that allows digital video signal transfer to devices, such as a computer or DV recorder without any
loss of image quality. In addition, the bundled PC software (DV-Link) allows live video viewing on a PC monitor, while
simultaneously offering full access to the camera control functions.
◆ Ultra-compact size, all-in-one camera unit
(no separate camera control unit required).
◆ 800 lines of horizontal resolution, 62dB S/N
ratio and f11sensitivity at 2000 lux.
◆ 12-bit A/D converters digitally convert the
entire dynamic range of each CCD (400%)
without distortion, with the finest possible
steps. Together with a 24-bit, super fast,
multi-stream, parallel processing DSP,
highlight handling is dramatically improved
and gamma correction is close to perfect,
approaching the color reproduction and
shadow detail of a full studio camera.
◆ Digital Auto Shading Compensation function
compensates for color shading errors caused
by interaction between the lens and prism
assembly in C-mount optical systems.
◆ The installed IR-Cut filter enhances sensitivity
to visible spectrum for color images. Easy
access means that the filter can be easily
removed and replaced by JVC’s quartz filter
option. This permits black & white imaging
within the IR band of the spectrum. In this
configuration the camera can produce
images in ultra low light conditions.
◆ Compatible with JVC KY-F55B series cameras
and accessories.
◆ Supplied with Software Development Kit
(SDK) and system software for capturing still
and moving images from the DV output.
◆ Analog RGB, composite and S-Video output.
◆ DV (IEEE1394) interface for high-quality
picture capture to a computer, another DV
recorder or the BD-X201M Medical DVD
recorder. In addition, the bundled software
allows the DV signal to be viewed via the PC,
while also offering full access to the main
camera control parameters.
◆ Full remote control with optional RM-LP55 or
computer control via RS-232C.
