Lake Success, N.Y.-based, Canon introduces the VB-C300 wide-angle pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) network camera. Along with the introduction of version 1.3 of the company’s VK-64/VK-16 network video recording software, the camera addresses the confined quarters and wiring limitations often faced by small businesses while still capturing high-quality video and delivering it via a LAN or the Internet.
Offering a 70° horizontal angle of view, the VB-C300 PTZ camera pans bidirectionally at ±170° to deliver a total viewing angle that exceeds 360°. It comes equipped with a high-sensitivity progressive-scan 310,000-effective pixel CCD that helps deliver well-defined images of even rapidly moving objects, as well as powerful low-light (1 lux at 1/30 shutter speed) performance.
