The new cameras incorporate Canon’s high-end lens design and image processing technology. They have specially designed lenses with multiple double-sided aspherical elements to produce maximum optical performance, says the company.
The new cameras – the VB-H41, VB-H610VE, VB-H610D and VB-H710F – deliver outstanding zoom and wide angle performance, according to Canon, as the lenses use glass with a high refractive index.
Low light performance is enhanced with the use of a lens coating which reduces image ‘ghosting’ in IR light situations
The cameras also deliver high image quality, says Canon, as they incorporate the same DIGIC DV III image processors used in the company Cinema EOS C300 broadcast system and XF300/XF305 professional camcorders.
Canon will also showcase the rest of its security surveillance portfolio, including the recently-launched broadcast quality PTZ camera, the XU-80.
Julian Rutland, visual communication products and solutions director at Canon Europe said:
“Our new full HD range of network cameras combines Canon’s high quality image processing technology and heritage in lens design with our expertise in networking. The addition of these products is a significant step forward as we look to grow our business in the network camera space.”
