The Panasonic WV-CS954 Super Dynamic III dome camera is equipped with a 30x optical zoom lens. Combined with a 10x digital zoom, for a total zoom capability up to 300x, this camera can identify distant subjects. With its pixel based 128x dynamic range, the WV-CS954 works beautifully even when contrast changes from scene to scene. Area free natural contrast image correction ensures accurate reproduction, whatever the subject. Horizontal resolution is also significantly higher, 540 lines (typical) in color or 570 lines in B/W. Plus, images stay clear and sharp in lighting as low as 0.5 lux (0.05 fc, in color) and 0.04 lux (0.004 fc, in B/W). Adaptive digital noise reduction eliminates streaking from objects such as headlights. Its 0.065°/sec. ultra slow speed fine control and powerful zoom let you zoom in smoothly on your subject. Whatever the situation, WV-CS954 offers dramatic improvement in subject identification. Additional intelligent features include auto image stabilizer to eliminate blurring if the camera is shaken. Scene change detection to send the alarm signal if the camera is interfered with, auto tracking of intruders, and 256 preset positions. Combining extraordinary image quality with added intelligence, the WV-CS954 brings unprecedented reliability to 24-hour surveillance.
