The Sony FCB-EX12EP Camera is a 12x block camera with superb picture quality and features you've come to expect from the FCB camera line-up, such as digital output, color enhancement and sodium vapor lamp mode.  
HIGHLIGHTS: 
*  Digital Output (ITU-R BT656):    By using the digital interface, the quality of the camera video signal is maintained with minimal deterioration. This can lead to cost savings due to the direct connection to codecs/systems without the need for any additional components. *  Temperature Readout:    The value of the internal temperature of the SONY FCBEX12E / SONY FCB-EX12EP camera can be read out via the VISCA  protocol. When checking the internal temperature of equipment (i.e., speed dome unit), it is possible to use this data to turn a fan or heater on/off inside the equipment as needed. *  Color Enhancement:    Ideally suited for low vision applications, new color enhancement options can make reading text and pictures less challenging. Available options include monochrome, binary, inverted and enhanced color modes. *  White Balance: Outdoor Auto Mode:    The SONY FCB-EX12EP/SONY FCB-EX12E camera is equipped with a new Outdoor Auto Mode feature. When shooting at dawn or dusk, images could appear bluish. The new E version cameras automatically adjust the white balance to reduce the dark tones at dawn or dusk. *  White Balance: Sodium Vapor Lamp Mode:    When cameras are shooting under a sodium vapor lamp (typically a street lamp or tunnel lamp), the image could appear to have a yellowish tint. The new SONY FCB-EX12EP / FCB-EX12E camera is equipped with a new Sodium Vapor Lamp Mode that automatically compensates for the sodium vapor lamp degree of Kelvin to restore objects to their original color.
