"Ganz is recognized worldwide for its quality products and its large market presence," explains John Monti, Pixim's vice president of marketing and business development "Pixim is delighted to have contributed to Ganz's first WDR dome security camera series and Computar's varifocal lens optimized for Pixim chipsets. We look forward to working with Ganz on its future WDR offerings"

Ganz's new Pixim-powered WDR (maximum 120 dB) cameras offer a number of key advantages. The Ganz dome cameras feature Pixim's award-winning Digital Pixel System (DPS) technology that allows individual pixel sampling to determine optimum exposure in all areas of the image. This provides a balanced exposure of both bright and dark areas in the same scene, making these cameras ideal for the toughest backlight problems. Excellent image quality and color rendition in challenging lighting conditions are ensured 24/7. The dome's digital day/night and frame integration modes capitalize on Pixim's technology to achieve enhanced low light performance.

Other features include a proprietary pan/tilt/rotation (3-axis) gimbal mechanism for mounting the Ganz dome on any horizontal or vertical surface, an optical quality distortion-free dome cover with black inner liner, available with a weatherproof (IP66 rated) and impact and scratch resistant polycarbonate bubble and Computar's powerful 3-9mm varifocal, f/l.2 aperture lens with built in digital zoom.

"Understanding the growing demand for WDR dome cameras, we were anxious to find a partner that would provide us with a proven solution," commented Jim Holihan, vice president of CBC (AMERICA) Corp, Ganz "Pixim leads the way in delivering outstanding image quality, particularly in the toughest backlight conditions"
