There was no press release. The launch simply appeared as four new videos on Synology&rsquo;s YouTube channel, all dated the same day, and a product page that quietly switched to &ldquo;Buy now&rdquo;. The Synology FC600 is a 6MP, 360-degree fisheye camera designed for ceilings: one lens that covers a whole room, dewarped into several ordinary views in Surveillance Station. This guide covers what the Synology FC600 does, where it fits next to the BC510 and TC510, how it behaves on Surveillance Station versus Surveillance365, and the limits worth knowing before you order one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SynoPower Club Point:<\/strong> I heard about this launch from Synology staff at Solution Day, not from a newsroom, and the product page backs them up. Here is the part the spec sheet will not tell you: a fisheye is an overview camera, not an identification camera. The Synology FC600 answers &ldquo;what happened in this room&rdquo; better than anything else Synology sells, but at 3 metres it is already at the edge of identifying a face. Put it in the middle of the ceiling for the story, and keep a turret on the door for the face.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-table-of-contents-block-table-of-contents-block\"><div

id=\"what-is-the-synology-fc600\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is the Synology FC600?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Synology FC600 is an indoor fisheye camera with a 1\/2.5-inch sensor, a fixed 1.53 mm F2.0 lens and a 2560&times;2560 image at 30 frames per second. The lens covers 187 degrees horizontally and vertically, so a single camera on the ceiling sees the whole floor below it. Synology&rsquo;s own shorthand for it is &ldquo;one fisheye equals four cameras&rdquo;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is the fifth model in the current Synology camera line, and at Solution Day 2026 it was listed as one of four Synology cameras that connect straight to Surveillance365. My write-up of that event covers the rest of the roadmap: <a href=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/synology-solution-day-2026-surveillance\/\">Synology Solution Day 2026 recap<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"998\" height=\"1100\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 929px) 100vw, 929px\" src=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide.webp\" alt=\"Synology FC600 fisheye camera on the Synology surveillance ecosystem slide at Solution Day 2026\" class=\"wp-image-21448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide.webp 998w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-272x300.webp 272w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-929x1024.webp 929w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-768x846.webp 768w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-11x12.webp 11w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-400x441.webp 400w, https:\/\/synopower.club\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/synology-surveillance-ecosystem-slide-300x331.webp 300w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Synology FC600 is the round camera in the middle row of this Solution Day slide.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"synology-fc600-vs-bc510-tc510-and-cc410w\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Synology FC600 vs BC510, TC510 and CC410W<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other Synology cameras point in one direction.

The Synology FC600 detects people but not vehicles, which is fine indoors and a problem anywhere cars are involved. And it has no weather rating, so it is an indoor camera only.

Dewarping turns it into flat views that look like ordinary cameras. Synology lists four dewarping types for the Synology FC600:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1O+3R:<\/strong> the original circle plus three regional views, useful when you want context and detail on the same screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>180-degree panoramic:<\/strong> the natural choice for a wall mount facing into a room.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1P+2R:<\/strong> one panorama plus two regional views.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Quad view:<\/strong> four regional views, which is where &ldquo;one fisheye equals four cameras&rdquo; comes from.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dewarped streams run at a lower frame rate than the main image. On Surveillance Station the ceiling panorama is listed at 2560&times;640 at 15 FPS and the four-region view at 1280&times;960 at 10 FPS, while the full fisheye circle stays at 30 FPS. For watching a room that is plenty. For fast movement, record the full circle and dewarp during playback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-the-on-camera-ai-detects\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the On-Camera AI Detects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All analytics run on the camera itself, so a regular Synology NAS is enough. There is no need for a DVA. On Surveillance Station the Synology FC600 supports:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>People detection<\/strong>, which filters out moving shadows, curtains and pets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>People counting<\/strong> by line crossing or area, with live counting across cameras and exportable counting reports.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Intrusion detection<\/strong> in one or both directions across a virtual line.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Crowd and loitering detection<\/strong> for queues, lobbies and waiting areas.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instant Search<\/strong> for people or motion in a chosen area, and <strong>Auto Tracking<\/strong> that keeps a moving person centred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Audio and tampering detection<\/strong>, so a blocked or knocked lens raises an alert.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People counting is the feature that makes a fisheye worth its price. A ceiling camera sees everyone from above without people hiding behind each other, which is exactly the view a counting line needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"surveillance-station-vs-surveillance365-on-the-synology-fc600\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surveillance Station vs Surveillance365 on the Synology FC600<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Synology FC600 works on both platforms, but the feature list is noticeably shorter in the cloud. This comes from Synology&rsquo;s software specification table:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>&nbsp;<\/th><th>Surveillance Station<\/th><th>Surveillance365<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Main stream<\/td><td>Up to 2560&times;2560, H.264 or H.265<\/td><td>2560, 1280 or 800 square, H.264 only<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Maximum bitrate<\/td><td>6,656 kbps<\/td><td>3,072 kbps<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dewarped sub-streams<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Not supported<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>People counting<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Not supported<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Instant Search \/ Auto Tracking<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Not supported<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>People, intrusion, loitering<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Recording<\/td><td>microSD and Synology NAS<\/td><td>microSD<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>RTSP connections<\/td><td>Up to 4<\/td><td>Not supported<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short: if you want the Synology FC600 for people counting or retail analytics, it belongs on Surveillance Station. On Surveillance365 it is a simple, cloud-viewable overview camera. Our Surveillance365 guide explains the cloud side in detail: <a href=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/synology-surveillance365-tutorial\/\">Synology Surveillance365 tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-synology-fc600-licensing-works\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Synology FC600 Licensing Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Synology&rsquo;s product page is clear that a Surveillance Device License is required when the Synology FC600 records to a NAS through Surveillance Station. Every NAS includes two free licenses, so the first two cameras of any brand cost nothing extra. Beyond that you need one license per camera, bought once rather than as a subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fisheye does not change that arithmetic. The Synology FC600 is one camera and uses one device license, even when Surveillance Station splits it into four dewarped views. Synology&rsquo;s own NAS setup video confirms this: the FC600 appears as a single entry in the IP Camera list. That is the real value behind &ldquo;one fisheye equals four cameras&rdquo;: four views of a room for the license cost of one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Surveillance365, a Synology camera on the free Standard plan needs no device license at all. Our license guide covers prices and pack sizes: <a href=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/synology-surveillance-station-license-cost\/\">Surveillance Station license cost<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a221f4eb wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:0px;border-radius:0px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:0;padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-palette-color-4-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/synopower.club\/\" style=\"border-radius:15px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get a license for your FC600<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"where-to-find-more-official-resources\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Find More Official Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Synology posted four Synology FC600 videos on launch day.

Do not put it under an eave or in an unheated warehouse that freezes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>No vehicle detection.<\/strong> The analytics are people-only.

Use the privacy masks (up to 5 zones) around screens, desks and changing areas, and check local rules on recording audio.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"references\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synology.com\/en-global\/products\/FC600\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Synology FC600 product page<\/a>, the source of the specifications and software comparison on this page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synology.com\/en-global\/products\/cameras\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Synology camera lineup<\/a>, comparing the FC600 with BC510, TC510 and CC410W.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synology.com\/en-us\/company\/news\/article\/2024_Solution_Exhibition\/Synology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Synology Solution Exhibition 2024 announcement<\/a>, where the FC600 was first shown.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/c2.synology.com\/en-us\/pricing\/surveillance365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Surveillance365 plans and pricing<\/a>, for the cloud option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synology.com\/en-global\/compatibility\/camera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Surveillance Station camera compatibility list<\/a>, to check any other cameras on your system.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"frequently-asked-questions\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">When was the Synology FC600 released?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The Synology FC600 went on sale worldwide on 23 September 2026. Synology first showed it at its Solution Exhibition in June 2024, and the launch was marked by official setup videos rather than a press release.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can the Synology FC600 be used outdoors?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. It has no IP or IK rating and is rated for -10 to 45 degrees Celsius. For outdoor coverage use the BC510, TC510 or BC800Z.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Does one fisheye need four licenses?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. On Surveillance Station the camera uses one device license, even when it is dewarped into four views. Every NAS includes two free licenses.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Does the Synology FC600 work with Surveillance365?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, with a reduced feature set. Recording goes to the microSD card, the stream is H.264 up to 3,072 kbps, and people counting, Instant Search, Auto Tracking and dewarped sub-streams are not supported.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Does it detect vehicles?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. The on-camera AI detects people only, including people counting, intrusion, crowd and loitering detection.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How is it powered?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>By 802.3af PoE or a 12V 2A DC adapter. It draws up to 11.5 W. Neither a PoE switch nor an adapter is included.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-7\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Does it work with third-party NVRs?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes. It supports ONVIF, so it can be used with other NVR and VMS platforms, although the AI features are designed for Surveillance Station.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-8\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is a microSD card included with the Synology FC600?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. The slot accepts exFAT cards.
