Westfield selects Canon after mini dome 'shootout'

Canon’s VB-S800D camera has been selected as the only ‘mini dome’ for select surveillance area upgrades in Westfield centres nationally.

This win is a result of Scentre Group, the developer and manager of Westfield shopping centres, holding an evaluation ‘shootout’ in Westfield Bondi, with several suppliers competing to win the title of Westfield’s preferred supplier of the mini dome camera.

The VB-S800D is a compact fixed dome network video camera created for a large range of industries and locations. The Westfield Bondi mini dome test was an evaluation to find the best mini dome camera for Westfield centres nationally, and Canon’s camera performed the strongest when up against its competitors.

“Canon VB-S800D was selected due to its superior image quality and low light performance, and we are looking forward to working closely with Westfield’s authorised integrators to roll out the industry’s best mini dome cameras across Australia,” said Ryan Talbot, network video solutions manager, Canon Specialised Imaging, Canon Oceania.

Key features of the Canon VB-S800D include: superior low light performance; accurate colour reproduction; 100% Canon made optics and hardware; optical rotation; Canon’s Smart Shade Control (exclusive WDR solution).

Canon’s Specialised Imaging division manages Canon imaging solutions including surveillance, analytics, projection and medical imaging.
