Designed to meet the specialized needs of the security industry,
the VC-C50i delivers high-quality video from far distances and under the dimmest
lighting conditions. Building on Canon's long-standing tradition as the leader
in optics and image processing, it offers greater flexibility in the most demanding
environments. The VC-C50i is perfect for professional-grade installations, providing
a secure and sturdy connection interface. Capturing subjects beyond the scope
of the naked eye, it breathes new life into the world of monitoring.
Features :
Low Light Performance: Don't lose sight of
anything -- in low light, or in complete darkness. With the Minimum Subject
Illumination feature of the VC-C50i, you can still see what's happening even
when light gets as low as 1 Lux (at 1/30 second shutter speed). Not only that,
but when the lights go out completely, the camera's built-in Infrared (IR) source
lets you continue to monitor the action. (The camera's IR illumination is effective
up to 9.8 feet.) Nothing can stop the VC-C50i from giving you the images you
need -even when the lights go out!
Wide Angle View...Or Zoom In : The VC-C50i
comes with an outstanding 26X Optical Zoom Lens and 12X Digital Zoom capability.
With a zoom range like this, you'll get a wide-angle view that shows you everything
you need to see. Or, you can zoom in and get a close-up view. When it comes
to security camera zoom, the VC-C50i gives you the best of both worlds.
Wide Pan And Tilt Ranges: The VC-C50i lets
you see exactly what you need to see by panning through a broad reach of 200
degrees or tilting through 120 degrees. The ceiling-mounted, reverse model also
lets you tilt 120 degrees. But, it lets you pan a remarkable 340 degrees. There's
no hiding from these cameras!
Easy Connection and Installation : Installation
of your PTZ camera is easy because of the connection options the VC-C50i provides.
The camera's secure and sturdy Multiple Connector Interface and Connector Block
give you S-Video out, RS-232C in and out, as well as connections for Alarm out,
Sensor in, and External Light Trigger. Plus, for those seeking built-in video
and control connectors on the unit, the VC-EX3 connects to the VC-C50i providing
direct access to S-Video, RS-232 in and RS-232 out. Your VC-C50i also comes
with BNC video output and a supplied BNC/RCA video adaptor for even greater
flexibility. With all this flexibility, you can get it connected -- and get
it working for you right away.
Canon Quality Images : Along with the VC-C50i's
Genuine Canon Optics, the VC-C50i comes equipped with an impressive 1/4", 340,000
pixel CCD. Together, these features mean that you see sharp, clear video images.
As with all Canon cameras, the combination of outstanding optics and extraordinary
electronics means performance without compromise.
Compact Size : At a mere 0.89 lbs, the VC-C50i
is a compact featherweight that's easily mounted wherever you need a camera.
Not only that, the reverse model can be installed on the ceiling -- out of reach,
out of sight, and above the competition.
