Safety Precautions
1-2
Features of VB-C500VD/VB-C500D
The VB-C500VD/VB-C500D is a compact network camera for indoor installation integrating
camera and server features.
Shock resistant materials and mechanism (VB-C500VD)*
The VB-C500VD incorporates alloyed aluminum and polycarbonate plastics of 3.5 mm
thickness on its exterior. In addition, the VB-C500VD's body has a mechanism that helps it
absorb shocks during impacts. Special screws used in the VB-C500VD's dome case are hard
to loosen, making it more difficult for the VB-C500VD to be tampered with.
* The features described above do not guarantee that the product will be undamaged if subjected to an
impact, nor that the product is tamper-proof or tamper-resistant.
Wide-angle Varifocal Lens
Equipped with a wide-angle varifocal lens with a wide angle of 82°, F1.1 and optical 2.4x
zoom (digital 4x), the VB-C500VD/VB-C500D achieves video monitoring in wide-ranging
applications, including stores and offices, as well as applications in small areas such as at
ATM and in elevator halls.
Compact Design Suitable for Various Installation Environments
The ultra-compact dome camera of 3.7 inches in size (dome diameter) can be installed
inconspicuously in locations where appearance is given priority, such as in condominiums
and hotel stores. It can be installed in various ways, such as directly mounted on a ceiling or
wall, or recessed into a ceiling or wall.
Capturing Color Images at 0.2 Lux
With its high imaging quality, the camera can capture color images at a minimum subject
illumination of 0.2 lux while maintaining low noise and high color repeatability (when the 1/30-
second Smart Shade Control is turned on).
Digital Night Mode Function to Automatically Adjust to
Capturing at Low Illumination
When the illumination is low, such as during nighttime, the capture mode is automatically
switched from color to monochrome and Canon's unique low-noise, high-quality imaging
technology is used to increase the digital sensitivity. If the Digital Night Mode function is used,
images can be captured at a minimum subject illumination of 0.1 lux (when the 1/30-second
Smart Shade Control is turned on).
Smart Shade Control
When the background is bright and the subject is difficult to see, you can change the contrast
of dark areas to make the subject clearer. Unlike the backlight compensation, blown out of the
background can be prevented because bright areas are not controlled. These processes are
implemented by the dedicated hardware in the camera, so drops in image quality can be
reduced and system load can be decreased compared to when the conventional shade
control is used ("Setting the Smart Shade Control" in Operation Guide).

Before Use
PoE
The VB-C500VD/VB-C500D supports Power over Ethernet (PoE*) technology, which enables
simultaneous video/audio data transmission and power supply by simply connecting a PoE
HUB and a single LAN cable ( P. 2-6). When connecting to a PoE HUB, you need not
connect a power adapter to the camera or perform any power wiring.
* PoE stands for Power over Ethernet, which is compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard by the Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers.
Install-Free VB-C500 Viewer
This camera has a built-in VB-C500 Viewer, so its data can be viewed using a browser.
Accordingly, there is no need to install a PC application. Also, three levels of user privileges
can be set, including [Administrator], [Authorized User] and [Guest User].
Canon's Network Video Processor "DIGIC NET"
The camera incorporates DIGIC NET that offers high network distribution performance and a
range of intelligent functions to achieve high image quality and high-speed communication
such as simultaneous distribution of JPEG and MPEG-4.
Simultaneous Distribution of JPEG and MPEG-4
Video compression adopts JPEG/MPEG-4 to achieve high image quality/high frame rate of up
to 30 frames per second*
1
in VGA (640x480). Up to 30 clients*
2
can view the same image
simultaneously.
*1 Note that the frame rate may drop depending on the performance of the viewer PC, number of clients
connected at the same time, network load, etc.
*2 In MPEG-4, up to 10 clients can be connected at the same time.
Multi-Streaming
In JPEG, image can be distributed in three sizes (640x480, 320x240, 160x120) at the same
time.
High Quality Video of Moving Subjects
The VB-C500VD/VB-C500D utilizes a progressive-scan CCD to allow for the capture of noise-
less, high quality video of moving subjects.
Selectable Metering Modes for Various Shooting Conditions
Image can be captured by switching the metering mode* to one of three options, including
Center-weighted, Average and Spot, according to the shooting condition of the camera.
( "Setting Exposure" in Operation Guide)
* Brightness (light quantity) of the subject is measured to adjust the exposure.
