2.2-Megapixel 3CCD Offering Both High Resolutionand High SensitivityThe camera section features a3CCD system with a high-density2.2 megapixel 2/3 type 3CCD tooffer full-pixel HD (1920 x 1080)resolution and high F11 or F12*sensitivity. The switchableinterlace/progressive systemadapts to 1080/23.98p (or29.97p, 25p) native videorecording.*F11 sensitivity is attainable in the 1080/59.94i mode, and F12 sensitivity is attainable in the1080/50i mode.14 bit DSP Circuit Achieves High Image Qualitywith S/N Ratio of 59 dBThe high-performance DSP circuitprovides rich gradation andsuperb color reproduction basedon 14 bit A/D conversion. With anS/N ratio of 59 dB (when the DNRis turned ON), it also offers lownoise. The circuit features high-precision picture qualityadjustment functions such as askin tone detail function and a 12axis independent color correctionfunction. The new DSP circuit achieves less consumption thanprevious models.Chromatic Aberration Compensation (CAC)This exclusive technology works between the lens and camera,allowing for a highly sophisticated algorithm to be deployed thatautomatically compensates the registration error that is causedmainly by lens chromatic aberration, and minimizes the neighboringblur.High-Sensitivity Digital Super GainThe digital super gain (frame cumulative mode) lets the AJ-HPX3100record with a high S/N ratio*1 and less of the noise that commonlycomes with higher gain. The gain and digital super gain can beflexibly combined to achieve highly sensitive recording of up to a +76dB* 2 gain increase and 0.005 lx minimum illumination, to suit variousshooting conditions.*1: Due to the use of image accumulation, the number of recorded frames per seconddecreases. This results in a frame-by-frame playback effect.*2: With super gain set at +42 dB and digital super gain (cumulative mode) at +34 dB.c a M e r a S e c t i o nHigh-Image-Quality, High-Sensitivity HD Camera with 2.2-Megapixel 2/3-type 3CCDFull screen CAC OFF CAC ON•Simulation Showing the CAC (Chromatic Aberration Compensation) Effect3
