Partners can count on our ongoing relationship commitment as we go to market together. Dear IP Man: It seems fisheye and multi-imager cameras keep growing in popularity. What, if anything, is the difference between the two and what are the best applications for each? - Fish Out of Water Dear Fish: First, I think it is important to distinguish between the two. A fisheye camera is a single imager camera, used in conjunction with a fisheye lens, achieving a very wide or even panoramic field of view. These cameras are good at coverage in a large area, though not as good as getting high detail in that large area. Parking lots are a good example. A fisheye can provide an overall scene of the lot and what is happening in it, but don’t expect to be able to read license plates. Multi-imager cameras are just what they sounds like, multiple cameras cased into a single enclosure, each with their own imager. Together, you get a wide/panoramic field of view, but you also get better detailed images on account of the multiple imagers each looking at a much smaller area. But that detail comes with a price. Multi-imager cameras are typically more expensive and require more throughput on your network and more storage on your recorder. In both scenarios, I would recommend doing some type of field of view/lens calculation and trying to get an idea of pixel density. This will serve as a rough guideline in determining what level of quality you will get out of the camera. This is a brief overview; I hope it has been helpful. Sincerely, Carl “IP Man” Smith 3 | ScanSource Security Focus WINTER 2016 vendor profiles PANASONIC WV-SPV781L True 4K Network Camera Panasonic understands the importance of wide-angle viewing through HD cameras, and have ensured that this True 4K security camera maintains True 4K resolution in any area of its view. Offering 4K (3,840 x 2,160) images up to 30 fps, this outdoor 4K security camera offers extremely high-picture quality, with 1/7th the file size of other 4K cameras thanks to Panasonic’s compression technology. This camera is ideal for a range of outdoor applications. The environments in which it would flourish include: • Public Safety: City Surveillance at Intersections, Squares, Prisons, or Parking Spaces • Transportation: Airports, Stations, or Hub Terminals • Industrial Environments: Port Facilities, Plants, etc. Virtual PTZ operation allows the user to crop certain sections while still recording the whole area, and its rain wash coating allows for continued high visibility in rainy conditions, so no event is missed in mission critical applications.
