C-Tecnics introduces the Mantis 20 HD Camera, world’s first underwater inspection camera with a 20x zoom capability.
The MANTIS 20 is a compact, full high definition (HD) colour focus and zoom camera. The 1/3‐inch CMOS sensor provides exceptional picture quality with full HD levels of resolution and it incorporates a 20:1 optical zoom lens, the first of its kind on the market. The camera can provide up to full 1080p HD output signal in either analogue component or HD‐SDI format.
The camera has been designed to be as compact as possible but still provide the highest quality of picture for all subsea viewing applications.
It’s fully compatible with the C-Vision HD system, which C-Tecnics have also sold a large number of units to the onshore and offshore diving companies. The C-Vision and C-Vision HD demand is growing more and more with a number units being sold recently to universities, navies, diving companies and the renewable energy markets spanning across the globe.
