A wider picture
The Konftel C20800 features a Konftel Cam20 which is optimised for situations where the conference camera needs to be positioned close to the table. Firstly, the 123° field of view means that all the participants can sit in a comfortable position and still fit into the video image. At the same time, the camera creates a realistic image with no distortion. But actually, the Konftel Cam20 is equally at home in medium-sized and even large rooms thanks to it’s 4K capabilities.
The camera is quick and easy to mount in the meeting room. Use the flexible clamp to attach it to the screen or screw the base onto a stand in the perfect position.
Impressive video quality
With the Konftel Cam20 USB conference camera, a clear and balanced image is assured. WDR technology automatically adjusts to achieve a great picture in different light conditions. Even in the most challenging ones such as low light, direct sunlight and high contrast.
