Sony DCR-HC32 IR Only
Model: XNiteSonyHC32
Special Note: This camera has been modifed to see IR only. An infrared 715nm filter has been placed inside the camera. This camera cannot take normal color pictures.
The DCR-HC32 is a step up from the DCR-HC21. The big differences are that you get a 20x optical zoom instead of 12x and larger image sensor.The DCR-HC32 from Sony gives you a full-featured, compact MiniDV camcorder at an entry-level price. Highlights include the Advanced HAD™ CCD imager, which captures stunning detail and clarity, and the Digital Zoom, which focuses on distant subjects providing clear close-up images with less distortion. The Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens offers less glare and increased contrast for vivid, more life-like color and tones.
Make your personal videos complete with additional customization features such as Picture and Fader effects for creative and professional looking enhancements. Photo Mode allows you to capture and store hundreds of individual still images, and Picture Package™ software helps you easily organize and edit still images and video.
Externally, there are no visual changes. Internally, we have modified the optics so that the camera can see from 330nm to 1200nmx versus a stock camera which can see from about 390nm to 750nm
