Panasonic 5 Series Dome and Fixed Network security cameras

Panasonic has released its 5 Series Dome and Fixed Network security cameras, suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, offering clear images for identification in high-contrast scenes and backlight situations.

The range includes the Outdoor Vandal Resistant Dome (WV-SFV531), Indoor Vandal Resistant Dome (WV-SFR531), Indoor Dome (WV-SFN531) and Indoor Fixed (WV-SPN531) cameras.

With Full HD 1080 p resolution at up to 60 frames/s, the devices are capable of capturing rapidly moving objects from bills in banking environments to vehicle licence plates on the road. Designed to withstand harsh conditions, they also feature fog compensation to improve video quality despite the weather. A built-in dehumidification unit keeps the outdoor WV-SFV531 camera up and running consistently, preventing water and moisture from penetrating the enclosure.

The series is compatible with technologies that save bandwidth to maintain quality and allow quick review of footage. The cameras also feature 133 dB Enhanced Super Dynamic Range and day/night functionality with a built-in removable infrared (IR) cut filter. Using image sensor technology combined with multiprocess noise reduction (MNR), high sensitivity of 0.07 lux in colour images are achievable, delivering clear images with minimum ambient light.

The WV-SFV531 outdoor camera is IP66, NEMA 4X and IK10 weather and impact resistant, while the WV-SFR531 indoor cameras are IK10-rated impact resistant.

The products also come with an SDXC memory card slot for onboard recording.
