American Dynamics expands Illustra series
London, UK
The Illustra 610LT model is an indoor high-definition camera that offers 1080p HD. This camera also includes an auto-focus and motorised zoom lens and recessed plenum-rated mount to meet indoor environmental standards. An economical choice for businesses, this camera comes without audio, alarm contacts or other add-ons, when a full-featured high-definition camera is not required.
The new Theia telephoto lens is of a design that fits perfectly with the Illustra 600 and 610 mini-domes, and helps customers avoid the need for “trenching”. Used either indoor or outdoor, the 9-40mm lens magnifies faraway objects for unobstructed views. The lens is IR corrected, ensuring that the camera stays in focus, transitioning easily to and from color mode.
“Everyone is looking for an economical solution, but they want all the benefits and features of a high-quality IP camera,” said Steve Carney, director of product management for American Dynamics. “The expansion of our Illustra line of IP cameras provides greater options in the IP cameras, with excellent quality and features that lead today’s market in versatility and ease of use.”
Carney added, “We spare no expense in an effort to maximise the ease of use and install for integrators. That’s why we have extended our use of autofocus and IR corrected lenses to our standard definition and mid-priced megapixel cameras, when others eliminate those features at these price points.”
The Illustra 200 and 600 series mini-domes integrate with a variety of ONVIF-compliant NVRs and hybrid recorders, including the American Dynamics Videoedge NVR and HDVR.
