Sydney, AUSTRALIA – 12 September 2023: Canon Australia today announces the CR-N100 indoor 4K pan-tilt-zoom camera – the sixth model1 in the PTZ line-up designed to achieve high quality video capture and seamless integration into a multi-camera system. In addition to the latest camera release, Canon introduces the RC-IP1000 professional PTZ controller for broadcast and live events. Canon also launches its new Multi-camera Management Application to facilitate the management workflow of multiple PTZ cameras.
With the addition of the CR-N100 to Canon’s line-up of remote cameras, customers now have greater choice of products that support a wide range of uses, from professional video production to video content use by enterprises, local governments, and educational institutions.
CR-N100
The CR-N100 excels in image quality, offering incredible versatility and performance for its price point. The camera is equipped with a 1/2.3-type 4K CMOS sensor and DIGIC DV6 processor and a powerful optical zoom lens of 20x, delivering 4K UHD resolution footage with exceptional detail and oversampled HD video. As online meetings, lectures, events and seminars become increasingly commonplace, there is a growing need for livestreaming and video recording technology.
The CR-N100 camera includes four different ‘scene modes’ – Portrait, Sports, Low-light and Spotlight – which users can choose from to create the best possible visual expression based on their subject. The Hybrid Auto Focus system combines contrast AF (auto-focus) with external phase-detection AF, delivering rapid and accurate focusing of the subject even in low light conditions, assisting the camera operator2.
The CR-N100 is compatible with Canon’s Auto Tracking App3 as an add-on application offering outstanding flexibility, enabling the camera to automatically track the main speaker, without the intervention of a camera operator. The camera also supports the Multi-camera Management App that enables batch setting configuration, management, and monitoring of up to 200 cameras, making possible efficient operation of large-scale systems in such environments as enterprises, local governments, and educational institutions. These features, combined with the entry position in the range of indoor PTZ cameras, deliver a budget-friendly but high-quality automated solution.
