Sony developed approximately 12.40M pixels back-illuminated CMOS image sensor, "IMX226CQJ", supporting Type 1/2 and 4K (approximately 17:9 ratio). This image sensor has advantages in both high resolution and high sensitivity with back-illuminated structure 1.85 μm unit pixel, and suits for next generation of 4K security camera.

* Back-illuminated structure 1.85 μm unit pixel
* Higher resolution 4K video imaging mode (4096 H × 2160 V, 60 frame/s)
* Higher sensitivity and lower noise
* Favorable incident light angle characteristics and F-number dependency
