BenQ, an internationally renowned provider of visual display solutions, is launching the latest video camera in its DVY family, the DVY32 smart 4K UHD video camera.

For users who need to monitor or manage several computers, the DPS 4X1 provides an easy way to access them with a single mouse and keyboard while meeting evolving requirements.”

Marshall Debuts Expanded Features for its POV and PTZ Camera Lines

Marshall Electronics, a leading manufacturer of broadcast and proAV cameras and equipment, continues to update and add features to its POV and PTZ camera models with accessory add-ons and easy field-upgradable firmware. These updates are in direct response to customer requirements.

Marshall now offers three levels of Neutral-Density (ND) filters for its IP67-rated CV226 All-Weather Lipstick Camera and CV503-WP All-Weather Miniature HD Camera. In photography and optics, an ND filter reduces or modifies the intensity of all wavelengths, or colors, of light equally, giving no changes in hue of color rendition. It can be a colorless (clear) or grey filter, and is denoted by Wratten number 96, a labeling system for optical filters. The purpose of a standard photographic neutral-density filter is to reduce the amount of light entering the lens. Doing so allows the photographer to select combinations of aperture, exposure and sensor sensitivity that would otherwise produce overexposed video.
