Canon presented the upgraded version of its BU-45H HD PTZ camera. The robotic pan camera is widely used in many applications such as television broadcasts, traffic and weather monitoring, security and more. The remote controlled camera is a cost effective solution for high resolution recording and broadcasts. BU-45H boasts a small, lightweight and rugged outer shell (weighing 37 lbs. approximately) which resists dust and water.

The camera enables panning up to 340 degrees and tilting up to 80 degrees. BU-45H integrates canon’s sophisticated Image Stabilizer technology and Canon Auto Focus function for better high quality output.
