AXIS 212 PTZ/212 PTZ-V are no ordinary PTZ cameras. They are the only PTZ network cameras that
provide full overview, and instant, one-click pan/tilt/zoom - with maintained sharp image resolution.
And it’s all done without moving parts, so there’s no wear and tear. In short, it’s a whole new
denition of PTZ.
A full 140° eld of view provides video of the entire
monitored area. Conventional PTZ cameras can view
only one part of the whole video scene at a time.
Zooming in from full overview to close-up is instant, in
one-step clicks. There’s no delayed reaction. Pan and tilt
functions work in the same way.
Many cameras cannot deliver an overview with sharp
resolution, nor maintain resolution when zooming.
AXIS 212 PTZ network cameras, with their 3x zoom,
maintain sharp images at all times.
AXIS 212 PTZ network cameras are unique in using a
wide-angle lens and a 3 megapixel sensor to achieve
PTZ functionality. No moving parts are needed, which
means no wear and tear.
AXIS 212 PTZ-V has a vandal-resistant casing that
provides eective protection against tampering as no
part can be forcibly moved.
AXIS 212 PTZ/212 PTZ-V are easy to install with built-in
Power over Ethernet and an angled wall mount.
