XCD-MV6

Sony continues to expand its popular XCD IEEE1394b camera series with the latest introduction of its ultra-compact and lightweight, monochrome XCD-MV6.

This new progressive scan camera incorporates a 1/3 type wide VGA global shutter CMOS sensor and is one of the smallest IEEE1394b cameras on the market.

The XCD-MV6 measures just 19mm (3/4 inch) in depth and weighs only 37 grams. Combining high-quality images with miniaturized body, the XCD-MV6 is ideally suited for space-restricted machine vision and robotic applications.
