MCC-1000MD

HD Video Camera
The MCC-1000MD two-piece medical grade camera features
latest-generation image sensor technology which offers better
low-light sensitivity than traditional equivalent-sized image sensors.

Sony’s expertise and knowledge, accumulated over decades

as a world-leading supplier of broadcast equipment,
are consolidated in this camera.

The camera head is equipped with 3 HD CMOS 1/2.8 inch

image sensors with an effective pixel count of approximately
2,070,000 pixels (1920 x 1080). It features latest-generation
image sensor technology for better low-light sensitivity.

Together with Sony’s medical-grade recorders and monitors,

the MCC-1000MD is an ideal solution for capturing and
recording microsurgery procedures.*
* The MCC-1000MD acquires images which are intended for use with
secondary view and can not be used for surgical and diagnostic purposes.
