OVERVIEW
The VB-M50B PTZ Network Camera provides video with
remarkable color and clarity, even in very low light environments.

and a long-range optical zoom, make this camera ideal for many
applications where lighting may be limited, ranging from security
and surveillance to web casting. In particular, users will appreciate
the ability to capture color video down to .04 lux*, and black and
white down to .002 lux*.
