Six new cameras from Sony’s Professional Services division, have been unveiled boasting a frame fate of 60fps and advances in dynamic range.
The new IPELA Engine EX cameras were unveiled in Essen last month and utilise the company’s IPELA Engine EX system – Sony’s integrated signal processing system for high picture quality, combining signal processing and video analytics.
The cameras are aimed at the mid-to-high level of the surveillance market and the cameras all come with software optimised to monitor traffic, casinos, banks and factories.
The IPELA Engine EX cameras also offer what Sony describe as “unprecedented flexibility.”
The new frame rate is double the previous generation of Sony cameras and the low light sensitivity has also been improved by more than two times.
The cameras also feature improved dynamic range enhancing technology to provide significantly improved detail when showing brightly backlit figures.
Magazine Detektor International awarded the IPELA Engine their best product award saying that it is “the outstanding highlight of video surveillance products in 2012.”
The cameras available in the range are:
- Fixed-angle SNC-VB600 and SNC-VB630 Box cameras
- SNC-VM600 and SNC-VM630 Mini Dome cameras
- SNC-VM601 and SNC-VM631 Vandal-Proof Indoor Mini Domes.
Sony are also releasing three new ‘afforable’ IP cameras, the SNC-VB600B box camera, SNC-VM600B Mini Dome and SNC-VM601B available later this year.
These cameras will offer 30fps streaming, but with the same wide dynamic range and low light capabilities as their bigger brothers.
