Typical CCD Phenomena

The following phenomena may appear on the monitor
screen while you are using the DXC-9100P color video
camera. These phenomena stem from the high sensitivity of
the CCD image sensors, and do not indicate a fault within
the camera.
Vertical smear
A "smear" may appear to extend vertically from very bright
subjects, as shown below.

This phenomenon is common to CCD imaging elements
using an interline transfer system, and is caused when an
electric charge induced by infrared radiation deep within the
photosensor is transferred to the resistors.
Aliasing
When shooting fine stripes, straight lines or similar patterns,
the lines may become slightly jagged.
Blemishes
Pale vertical
smear A CCD image sensor consists of an array of individual
picture elements (pixels). A malfunctioning sensor element
will show up as a single pixel blemish in the image. This is
generally not a problem.
