PREFACE

Panasonic introduces a newly developed dome camera with highly advanced CCTV technology for connection to both conventional surveillance systems and digital networks. Color camera, zoom lens, pan and tilt mechanism are all combined in a single compact unit.

This high-performance color CCTV camera is utilized as a video surveillance device.

It incorporates a Digital Signal Processor, pan-tilt mechanism, and x10 zoom lens in a compact enclosure.

A newly developed 1/4-inch CCD allows use under extremely low lighting conditions of 1.0 lx for color images.

Setup menus allow the camera to fulfill surveillance tasks by such means as flip-a-chip and auto pan.
