As a leader in Sony high‑definition (HD) technology, a new high‑definition camera block — the FCB‑EH6500 & CH6500 — has been launched, further expanding the FCB camera block product portfolio. Below are the main functions of the FCB‑EH6500 & CH6500.

Image Stabilization

It features an image stabilization function that minimizes image shake caused by low‑frequency vibration. This function is highly valuable for outdoor security monitoring and traffic surveillance applications.

Stable Focus

The stable‑focus mode activates the camera block’s image stabilization at a preset zoom ratio. Once image stabilization is enabled, it combines optical and digital zoom to offset shake‑induced motion. It operates seamlessly under StableZoom mode without abrupt shifts in the horizontal viewing angle of the picture.

Quick Video Mode Switching

This function allows video‑mode changes without power‑cycling the unit, for instance switching from 1080p/29.97 to 720p/59.94. Users can adjust the camera block’s video resolution via software reset.

Simplified Connection

One cable and one interface carry video signals, VISCA communication control signals and power supply simultaneously. It supports a 30‑pin ultra‑thin coaxial cable (for both digital and analog output) and a 24‑pin FFC (analog‑output only)*¹ interface.
