Sony is proud to introduce the new FCB-EV7520A.  This new camera block is a direct successor to the FCB-EV7520 and provides an upgrade migration path for the 720p FCB-EV5500 and 20x Optical Zoom EV series varients.

The FCB-EV7520A is equipped with a 30x optical zoom lens and builds upon the market leading specifications of the well regarded FCB-EV7520.

The FCB-EV7520A inherits a multitude of features from Sony’s world-renowned FCB Series including VISCA command protocol,  Advanced Noise Reduction, Auto ICR, Spherical Privacy Zone Masking and Wide Dynamic Range. These market leading features are suitable for a variety of demanding applications.

Key Features

Features Specifications Downloads Resources

Capture crisp, clear Full HD (1080/60p) images
The high-performance 1/2.8-type Exmor R CMOS image sensor achieves superb Full HD (1920 x 1080) picture quality. Using the latest Sony sensor technology the FCB-EV7520A can produce usuable images even in the toughest of lighting conditions. 

Fast, bright lens with rapid 30x optical zoom
The high quality lens off ers a bright F1.6 maximum aperture and 30x optical zoom range. Fast zoom operation (from wide end to tele) is ideal for smooth, rapid transitions from wide area coverage to detailed closeups in security and surveillance applications.

Get a steadier picture with image stabilizer
The camera’s built-in image stabilizer function counters the effects of blurred, shaky images caused by low-frequency vibration. It’s useful for outdoor surveillance and traffic monitoring applications where the camera may be subject to wind or mechanical vibration such as on a bridge or mounting pole.

StableZoom™
Image stabilizer and optical/digital zoom are combined to enhance picture quality while maintaining the original horizontal angle of view, ensuring no compromise in image size and reduced blurring.

2D/3D Noise Reduction
Advanced noise reduction technology filters noise from the image for clearer results, especially in low light conditions. Noise reduction can be selected from five levels to suit a wide range of operating environments.

See more clearly with Visibility Enhancer and De-fog
Picture quality is enhanced dynamically and adaptively on a pixel-by-pixel basis while continuously adapting to the scene within the given dynamic range. There’s also a de-fog feature that allows clearer viewing in foggy or misty scenes.

Clear vision round the clock with Day/Night
Benefit from optimized picture quality in changing light conditions – a frequent challenge in round-the-clock security operations. In high sensitivity mode the camera can operate effectively in lighting levels as low as 0.35 lx (ICR on).*5 

Auto ICR (Auto IR-cut Filter Removal)
In low light conditions the camera automatically switches from day to night mode, removing the IR-cut fi lter to boost sensitivity for clear pictures in near-darkness.

Spherical privacy zone masking
Areas of view can be selectively masked for privacy. Masked areas are automatically interlocked with the camera’s pan/tilt/zoom movements.

One-cable connection for simpler integration
A single cable carries HD video signals plus VISCA communication and power supply. Integration flexibility is supported by the 30-pin micro coaxial (digital output) interface.

Wide range of features for versatile operation
Versatile operation is ensured by a wide range of functions and adjustments, including: White Balance modes; Picture effects (E-Flip, Nega Art, Black & White, Mirror Image, Colour Enhancement); Motion Detection/Alarm; Picture freeze; Temperature readout; Slow AE response; Electronic shutter/slow shutter; Title display/ Camera mode display (English).

The nine principles of imaging system design for ITS and security applications

Security has become an increasingly important part of managing transport networks: be it a metro station with miles of interconnected tunnels or an airport with passengers running between terminal buildings.

Being able to track people and objects as they move through these structures is an essential part of keeping staff and passengers safe, but having a solution that monitors the perimeters is also important. This was well highlighted by the 2018 drone attacks on Gatwick Airport, the UK’s second busiest, highlighting the disruption that can be caused if surveillance isn’t wholly reliable with nearly 1,000 flights disrupted.
