Canon has added a new PTZ network camera to its surveillance arsenal. The Canon VB-C60 offers pan/tilt/zoom functionality for wide-area surveillance, and features built-in 40x optical zoom for detailed viewing of distant objects. The camera is a compact and versatile solution for video surveillance in schools, hospitals, and other facilities, as well as board room web conferencing.
Canon is showing off its new VB-60 network camera at ASIS International 2008. The PTZ IP camera boasts some impressive technology. It features a 40x optical zoom, pan/tilt/zoom functionality, and a 56-degree wide-angle lens. This enables the Canon VB-60 to monitor larger areas that might ordinarily require multiple security cameras.
Canon's new VB-C500D network camera is on display this week at the ISC West 2009 conference in Las Vegas. The Canon VB-C500D provides outstanding image quality and advanced features with Genuine Canon Optics and a powerful DIGIC NET Processor. This versatile IP mini dome camera is ideal for monitoring retail and convenience stores, lobbies, receptions areas, hotels, and other locations where an unobtrusive, fixed security camera is required.
While we're on the subject of new camera announcements, let's take a look at the latest batch of Canon IP cameras recently added to the VideoSurveillance.com store. The new Canon network camera offerings include the VBC500VD vandal-resistant mini dome, the VB-C60 PTZ camera, and the VB-C500D mini dome.
