Designed to meet the specialized needs of the security industry, the Canon VC-C50iR Reverse-mount Communication Camera delivers high-quality video from far distances even under the dimmest lighting conditions. Providing a secure and sturdy connection interface and offering great flexibility in demanding environments, the Canon VC-C50iR is perfect for professional-grade installations. This camera also offers pan/tilt functionality so that nobody can slip past your surveillance, and you can focus on critical situations or areas as they arise. One of the most powerful zooms available, the VC-C50iR comes with an amazing 312x total zoom, making this camera perfect for intense, close-up scrutiny. Intended primarily for indoor use, the VC-C50iR has a built-in IR (infrared) source that allows you to see up to approximately 10-feet in complete darkness.P Utilizing a 0.25-inch 340,000-effective-pixels CCD (charge-coupled device) sensor, this camera can achieve a resolution of up to 460 horizontal TVL (TV lines). The VC-C50iR comes with a varifocal lens that allows an amazing 26x optical and 12x digital zoom. For extreme low-light situations, this camera has a 1/30th-of-a-second shutter speed, a light sensitivity of one lux with its motorized IR-cut (infrared) filter, and visibility in no-light conditions up to 10-feet away using the built-in IR sensor. The Canon VC-C50iR has automatic adjustable positioning with a 340-degree pan, and 100-degree tilt range. The VC-C50iR also features automatic and one-touch manual white balance to help ensure picture clarity in variable-lighting circumstances. This camera can operate in temperatures from zero to 40-degrees Celsius.P bTechnical Features:/b ul liSensitivity: down to 1 lux in visible-light mode liResolution: 460 horizontal TVL liZoom: up to 26x optical and 12x digital liPan/Tilt range: 340-degree pan range, 100-degree tilt range liPan/Tilt speed: up to 90-degrees Pan and 70-degrees Tilt per second liOperating temperatures: from 0- to 40-degrees Celsius liDimensions: approximately 13 x 12.5 x 10 centimeters (W x D x H) /ul The Canon VC-C50iR Reverse-mount Communication Camera provides you with a reliable, easy-to-use camera with unparalleled zoom potential, making it a powerful addition to any security system. Designed to be reverse-mounted to a ceiling, the VC-C50iR lets you define up to nine position pre-sets as part of a scheduled tour, or control the camera's pan and tilt as circumstances demand. Quick and easy to install, this camera comes completely assembled and ready-to-use, and includes its own wireless remote for convenient control. Users should note, however, that the CCD sensor may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light.P bAbout Surveillance Camera Technical Features/bbr bLux rating/b is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three lux would mean a camera could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the lux level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's bresolution/b should be greater than or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The bS/N/b, or bsignal-to-noise ratio/b, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide bdynamic range/b is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. bCCD (charge-coupled device) sensors/b provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. bCMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors/b offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient.P bAbout Pan/Tilt Cameras/bbr A Pan/Tilt Camera has the ability to pan ("move" horizontally), or tilt ("move" vertically). IP cameras often have pan/tilt capability. A pan/tilt camera is ideal for monitoring of situations that need a continual real-time adjustment of the views.P bAbout Auto Zoom Cameras/bbr An auto-zoom camera can be remotely controlled and allows the monitor to manually zoom in on areas for clearer viewing. An auto-zoom camera, combined with a mount that has pan and tilt functionality, can be used to construct a high-end surveillance system.P bAbout Infrared Cameras/bbr An infrared camera uses an infrared illuminator for low-light and nighttime viewing. Typically designed with fixed focal lengths, infrared cameras provide black and white images of nighttime viewing, and many have color capability for daylight use.P bWhat's in the Box/bbr VC-C50iR camera, interface adapter (VC-EX3), BNC/RCA video adapter, wireless controller (WL-V5), 2 AA batteries, AC adapter and cable, and user's manual.
