Abu Dhabi,
UAE, 18 May 2014: Canon Middle East has announced a strong uptake
for its growing portfolio IP security cameras among the channel
community in Abu Dhabi. The recent showcase of its latest solutions
including the ‘S’ range at ISNR, the leading national security
show has helped key stakeholders including channel partners and
system integrators understand how Canon’s IP cameras are better
designed to help organisations address security surveillance
challenges.
The full HD IP
cameras including its inbuilt analytics were showcased with a live
demonstration giving attendees a first look and feel to the products.
Features that impressed the attendees include; the True Wide Angle
coverage which minimizes cameras’ quantity requirements, low light
capability which enhances video quality in difficult lighting
conditions and the Smart Shade Control feature which makes the video
footage more effective when excessive light falls from behind the
object.
“The latest
range of security cameras represents a significant milestone for
Canon and a compelling proposition for our partners and their
customers. Our products are equipped with image quality that is
industry-leading, the highest technical specification available and a
number of features that add value to any customer installation. In
addition to conducting in-depth seminars with the channel community,
participating at key trade events including ISNR has helped us
establish ourselves as a strong player in the IP security camera
business,” said Hendrik Verbrugghe, Marketing Director, Canon
Middle East.
The new
ultra-compact ‘S’ series has been designed for indoor
environments which require sensitive monitoring of specific areas or
items, such as the retail, education, commercial and hospitality
sectors. With high sensitivity CMOS sensors, fast wide angle lenses
and dual DIGIC processors, the S series offers the perfect
combination of Full HD resolution, detailed image quality, wide angle
of view and excellent low-light performance.
The complete
range of IP cameras benefit from Canon’s 70 year heritage in
imaging technology and include improved Auto Smart Shade Control,
which automatically selects the optimum exposure level. It helps the
lenses to compensate dark areas at the same time as maintaining the
bright areas. This makes the cameras easier to use and improves the
quality of highlights with corrected dark areas in back-lit scenes or
in difficult lighting conditions.
