Now with Auto Back Focus, for Perfect Focus 24 Hours a Day

Panasonic introduces the new WV-CP480 Series Super Dynamic IIIPLUS cameras, equipped with Auto Back Focus (ABF). When these cameras switch from colour to B/W mode, the cameras automatically make micron-order adjustments in CCD position to achieve precise back focus. The new Auto Back Focus (ABF) technology ensures delivery of clear, sharp, perfectly focused images 24-hours a day, automatically. The new Pixel Based 160x Dynamic Range Correction adjusts automatically to moment-to-moment changes in contrast, making it possible to view subjects accurately in all areas and positions, thanks to area free natural contrast image correction. Horizontal resolution of 540 lines (typical) in colour mode, and 570 lines in B/Wmode, a dramatic improvement in colour reproduction. With the optional F1.2 lens, clear images can be captured in lighting as low as 0.5 lux for colour or 0.06 lux for B/W. Adaptive Digital Noise Reduction eliminates streaking in darker images. Additional intelligent features include Auto Image Stabilizer to eliminate blurring and Scene Change Detection to warn of attempts to interfere with cameras.

The new WV-CP480 Series is ideal for a wide range of applications, offering 24-hour surveillance with imaging that delivers unprecedented, true-to-life realism.
