What is a cooling camera?

The light receiving sensor of the camera becomes more noisy at high temperatures and less at low temperatures. By cooling the light receiving sensor, you can obtain a low noise image.

In addition, the temperature control function of the cooling device allows you to shoot at a constant temperature during use, so you can obtain a uniform image without being affected by changes in the outside temperature even when shooting for a long time.

Opening Ceremony

Well then, I will open it!

Opened

Here is the state that arrived from SVBONY.

It is tightly packed with cushioning material + vinyl tape from the top of the outer cardboard. If you cut it open with a utility knife etc., the exterior will appear.

Inside the cardboard was a box of packages, another paper box, and a souvenir key chain.

The shallow white box contains the AC power adapter.

The key chain is solidly made.

And the main dish. Click here for the box of the SV405CC main unit.

Inside the package, you can see the camera in the bag and accessories.

When the contents are arranged, it looks like this.
