Expanded Screen, Instant Camera Control
With a large screen that lets you monitor up to four cameras simultaneously or focus on one in full screen, seamless pairing and effortless switching are just a button press away. The improved tactile feedback ensures smooth, intuitive transitions at your fingertips.
