The camera has been installed on a cliff-face 70ft above the sea at Portland, Dorset, with images of guillemots and other birds relayed back to a visitor centre at the nearby lighthouse.

Jason Fathers, director of specialist wildlife-watching company Wildlife Windows, installed the camera by abseiling down the cliff. He was helped by two engineers from industrial roped-access company Vertical Technology, who drilled into the cliff to allow the camera bracket to be securely fixed.

"I had never installed one of these cameras before but I've done a lot of abseiling and it was very straightforward, given the circumstances," says Jason. "We had a special aluminium bracket made to resist corrosion and we chose the Ganz camera because it would stand up to the very tough conditions at the site."

In this installation the C-Allview is powered via Cat 5 cable from a power source 100m away, using a DC/DC converter.

One major advantage of the camera design is its in-built wiper, which clears spray and rain from its distortion-free, optically flat glass.

The Ganz C-Allviews are designed to deliver great performance and cope with all weather conditions. With their IP67 rating, they deliver crisp, clear images in tough conditions.
