Main functions
Equipped as standard with functions for installation in harsh outdoor environments
• A housing that operates under a wind velocity of 60 m/s {117 knot} and does not break even
under a windstorm of 80 m/s {156 knot}.
• A wiper equipped as a standard feature that ensures clear visibility even in rain, snow, or mud
stains.
• A defroster equipped as a standard feature that warms the glass surface and thus makes
shooting in frigid environments of –50 ºC {–58 ºF} possible.
With Panasonic's proprietary hybrid image stabilizer*
1
, stable images are achieved even
in areas with excessive vibrations.
A slashed installation cost with heavy salt damage prevention and a lighter design
Glass fiber resin housing is used for the camera body. The additional cost of salt damage coating is
eliminated in offshore airports or other heavy salt damage areas, and the lighter design decreases
the installation cost.
The camera conforms to the IP67*
2
, and provides high dust resistance and waterproof
performance.
Waterproofing treatment is not required for the camera body.
Equipped with a new codec engine
The redesigned codec engine can output up to 60 frames per second in Full- HD quality.
Equipped with Super Dynamic (MEGA Super Dynamic)
(

Operating Instructions (included in the CD-ROM))
MEGA Super Dynamic compensates brightness on a pixel-to-pixel basis so that it produces natural
images even if objects have various illumination intensities.
Equipped with 30x optical zoom lens and high accuracy preset position function
A single camera provides wide area monitoring.
Up to 45x HD EX zoom with 2 mega pixel modes (image resolution of 1280×720 pixels).
Equipped as an option with extension unit WV-SUD6FRL1 (IR LED unit) (optional)
The infrared lighting system automatically adjusts the illumination angle of the IR LED according to
the zoom ratio of the lens, which allows you to shoot up to 150 m {492ft 1-1/2 inches} away at
night.
*1 Hybrid image stabilizer
Detects the vibration of camera with built-in gyro sensor. An instability correction method that
corrects various instabilities by combining the panning/tilting correction which slowly corrects the
large instability by rotating the panning/tilting motor according to the vibration, and the electronic
instability correction.
*2 IP67 rating: The applicable product has “Dust tight (6)” protection against foreign solids and has
“no impact even when it is immersed in water (7)” (IEC60529/JIS C 0920).
