  • Apr 16, 2015

Digital Watchdog is demonstrating two additions to our MEGApix camera line at the ISC West Exhibition, April 15-17, 2015, in Las Vegas, Nevada, Booth 25089. DW MEGApix IP camera technology is now available in new 2.1MP Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ) cameras with 5X optical zoom in both surface mount and flush mount models. These very aggressively priced cameras further round out our already proven IP product line, representing our commitment to deliver powerful and reliable security solutions to our customers worldwide.

"These tiny dome PTZs are remarkable for their usability and image quality," said Wade Thomas, President, Digital Watchdog. "They are also two of the easiest to install cameras on the market today."
