can be set, including [Administrator], [Authorized Users] and [Guest Users].
Canon's Network Video Processor "DIGIC NET"
The camera incorporates DIGIC NET that offers high network distribution performance and a
range of intelligent functions to achieve high image quality and high-speed communication
such as simultaneous distribution of JPEG and MPEG-4.
Simultaneous Distribution of JPEG and MPEG-4
Video compression adopts JPEG/MPEG-4 to achieve high image quality/high frame rate of up
to 30 frames per second*
1
in VGA (640x480). Up to 30 clients*
2
can view the same image
simultaneously.
*1 Note that the frame rate may drop depending on the performance of the viewer PC, number of clients
connected at the same time, network load, etc.
*2 In MPEG-4, up to 10 clients can be connected at the same time.
Multi-Streaming
In JPEG, image can be distributed in three sizes (640x480, 320x240, 160x120) at the same
time.
High Quality Video of Moving Subjects
The VB-C500D utilizes a progressive-scan CCD to allow for the capture of noise-less, high
quality video of moving subjects.
Selectable Metering Modes for Various Shooting Condition
Image can be captured by switching the metering mode* to one of three options, including
Center-weighted, Average and Spot, according to the shooting condition of the camera. (
"Setting Exposure" in Operation Guide)
* Brightness (light quantity) of the subject is measured to adjust the exposure.
Uploading and Sound Playback by Motion Detection Function
Change in video caused by movement of the subject is detected to upload the refreshed
image and play sound.
Upload, E-mail Notification
Events generated by the motion detection function or an external input device are used as
triggers to upload images tentatively recorded in the camera to the specified location via FTP/
HTTP/SMTP (e-mail), or notify an event via HTTP/SMTP (e-mail).
