High-quality RAW development adjustment function
- 1. You can adjust the image quality such as brightness, hue and white balance.
- 2. You can adjust the image quality of ARQ-format images generated by Pixel Shift Multi Shooting and develop them into TIFF, JPEG, or other formats.
In 'Pixel Shift Multi Shooting' the camera shoots four RAW images while shifting the image sensor. You can generate images with a higher resolution than is possible with regular shooting by combining the four RAW images on a PC. This is helpful when shooting still subjects, such as works of art and buildings.
In addition, when combined with ILCE-7RM4, the camera can shoot 16 RAW images to achieve ultrahigh-resolution shooting with information equivalent to 963.2 million pixels (approx. 60.2 million pixels x 16).

Viewer : Combining and browsing the shot images
When you are done shooting, the uncombined RAW images (ARW format) are transferred to your PC/Mac. Combined RAW data (ARQ format) is automatically generated on your PC/Mac, and you can browse it using Viewer.
With Viewer, you can also combine and browse images shot with Pixel Shift Multi Shooting using only the camera and not PC/Mac.Edit
Adjusting the image quality and Output
Edit : Adjusting the image quality and Output
The combined image can be developed into the JPEG or TIFF format by adjusting the image quality using Edit.
You can create time-lapse movie using still images (RAW/JPEG) captured during interval shooting.
Convenient functions for video production such as batch adjustment of RAW still images and 4K video output are available.

EISCAT (European Incoherent Scatter Scientific Association) operates three incoherent scatterradar systems, at 224 MHz, 931 MHz in Northern Scandinavia and one at 500 MHz on Svalbard, used to study the interaction between the Sun and the Earth as revealed by disturbances in the ionosphere and magnetosphere. At the Ramfjordmoen facility (near Tromsø, Norway), it also operates an ionospheric heater facility, similar to HAARP. Additional receiver stations are located in Sodankylä, Finland, and Kiruna, Sweden. The EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR) is located in Longyearbyen, Norway. The EISCAT Headquarters are also located in Kiruna.
EISCAT is funded and operated by research institutes and research councils of Norway, Sweden, Finland, Japan, China and the United Kingdom (the EISCAT Associates). Institutes in other countries also contribute to operations, including Russia, Ukraine, Germany and South Korea.
The system was also tested for space debristracking and the radars were proven to be capable of statistical observations of Low-Earth orbit (LEO) debris (altitudes of 500 to 1500 km) down to 2 cm in size. Since these measurements are insufficient to determine complete orbits, the radar has only limited space surveillance value.[1] Because the space debris tracking change is only a dedicated back-end computer system, the primary EISCAT observations are not compromised. As a result of that, the EISCAT radars allow continuous monitoring of the LEO debris in a beam park mode, functioning as a space surveillance system part of the European Space Agency's Space Situational Awareness Programme (SSA).[2]
History[edit]
The Imaging Source Europe Sound Cards & Media Devices Driver Updater
In 1973, the EISCAT proposal — which was originally planned by France, Germany and the three Nordic countries (Norway, Sweden and Finland) — seemed moribund. Then, Welsh physicist Granville Beynon became involved and by 1975, the agreement was signed, with the UK as a member. The proposal for UK membership had originally been turned down by the appropriate SRC committee. Beynon, however, persuaded the Board to reverse the decision of the committee and as a result of his efforts, hundreds of European scientists have had the opportunity to use the world's most advanced ionospheric radar.[3]
In 2008, Doritos embarked upon an 'out-of-this-world' advertising campaign, literally beaming a 30-second advertisement for Doritos brand tortilla chips into a solar system 42 light years away. This project is in collaboration with EISCAT Space Centre in Svalbard. The 'You Make It, We'll Play It' contest chose the winning advertisement that was transmitted on June 12, 2008. The ad was beamed towards a distant star, within the Ursa Major constellation which is orbited by planets which may harbor life.[4]
EISCAT facilities[edit]
EISCAT operates several facilities north of the Scandinavianarctic circle.[5]
The Imaging Source Europe Sound Cards & Media Devices Drivers
- At Ramfjordmoen, near Tromsø, Norway the EISCAT facility has: a Ionospheric heater with HF radar capabilities; a tristatic VHF radar at 224 MHz with a 4 x 30m-by-40m parabolic cylinder antenna; and a monostatic UHF radar at 931 MHz with a 32 m parabolic dish antenna.[6] From the start in 1981 the UHF radar was a steerable tristatic system, but due to interference from telecommunications in the 930 MHz band, the remote receivers were converted to receive the VHF signal during 2012.
- At Kiruna, EISCAT operates a 32 m parabolic dish antenna receiver which was originally part of the tristatic UHF system but was converted to receive the VHF frequency (224 MHz) during 2012.[6]
- At Sodankylä, Finland, EISCAT operates a 32 m parabolic dish antenna receiver which was originally part of the tristatic UHF system but was converted to receive the VHF frequency (224 MHz) during 2012.[6]
- At Longyearbyen, on the Norwegian Svalbard archipelago, EISCAT operates the EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR). It consists of a 32 m steerable parabolic dish antenna and a 42 m field aligned antenna, operating at 500 MHz.[5][6]
The Tromsø VHF transmitter, together with the Kiruna and Sodankylä VHF receivers, form a multistatic radar system.

Additionally, the Kilpisjärvi Atmospheric Imaging Receiver Array (KAIRA), near Kilpisjärvi, Finland can also serve as a VHF receiver in conjunction with the Tromsø transmitter.[7]
EISCAT 3D[edit]
EISCAT is planning on building a next generation radar capable of providing 3D monitoring of the atmosphere and ionosphere. The new system is called EISCAT_3D.
In 2008, the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures selected EISCAT_3D for its 'Roadmap 2008 for Large-Scale European Research Infrastructures for the next 20–30 years.'[8]
EISCAT_3D will be a multistatic radar composed of five phased-array antenna fields. each field will have around 10,000 crossed dipole antenna elements. All five sites will act as receivers, with a single core site transmitting at 233 MHz (VHF band). The sites will be spread over Finland, Norway and Sweden. Each site will have a central array, surrounded by a set of smaller arrays, providing a high spatial resolution via aperture synthesis.[9]
Preparations for EISCAT_3D[edit]
During the summer of 2017, EISCAT will build a 91-element subarray at the site at Ramfjordmoen for hardware testing purposes and the full system is expected to be operational around 2021. The KAIRA system is also a pathfinder for the development of EISCAT_3D.[7]
