The last-time-buy period for all CCD-based sensors from Sony is ending. Consequently, SVS-Vistek will discontinue camera models using the ICX sensors. This affects all ECO series cameras. A full list of impacted devices is available here.

For customers committed to CCD designs, we’ve launched a Last-Time-Buy (LTB) period starting now and a following Last-Time-Delivery (LTD) phase. These measures allow clients to continue manufacturing and selling their CCD-based products with guaranteed supply. Orders for LTB cameras can be submitted until August 31, 2024. Delivery of these items will extend until August 31, 2026 during the LTD period. We are working closely with each customer to find optimal solutions.

Moving from CCD to CMOS sensors

Our camera lineup and that of our sister companies under TKH Vision feature numerous models ready to replace current CCD-based setups.

Thorsten Schmidt, CPO at SVS-Vistek stated: “Whether customers decide now or later to transition from CCD to CMOS technology, we stand as a reliable partner. Through expert consulting services, we help ensure that clients’ systems and products remain competitive in the future.”
