In its range of Smart IP cameras Hikvision has launched the DS-2CD4065F-(A) network box camera. The product has a 6 megapixel sensor that delivers 3072 x 2048 images at 25 fps (frames per second). This model is capable of delivering real-time full HD 1080p video streams at 60 fps, and sustaining up to 20 concurrent live-view channels.
Keen Yao, International Marketing Director at Hikvision, said: “The introduction of this camera would definitely drive picture imaging to another new height. Hikvision is the very first to bring this technology to the security world. As a real breakthrough in HD security, this camera will greatly improve user’s experience on video image quality.”
The 6.0 megapixel video at 25 fps will be the Chinese makers say suited to applications requiring detailed surveillance. For instance, rather than blanketing a parking area with low resolution VGA cameras, a single DS-2CD4065F-(A) would be able to cover the entire area. The high resolution lenses also means there is detail to capture license plates, clothing and faces. Furthermore, its 1/1.8-inch progressive scan CMOS helps to ensure true colour reproduction of images captured day and night.
Features as with Hikvision’s existing Smart IP cameras include 3D Digital Noise Reduction, Super WDR (wide dynamic range), auto-switching ICR and electronic image stabilisation. Its encoding algorithm streams images at a low bitrate without compromising quality, compared to traditional cameras, the manufacturers say. The camera enhances image quality by up to 30 per cent it it claimed while minimizing the system’s load and storage requirements. As for detection, Face Detection, Audio Detection, Line Crossing Detection and Video Quality Detection, automatically trigger an alarm in case of an exceptional event.
The DS-2CD4065F-(A) may also be fitted with Hikvision’s HV3816D-8MPIR and HV1140D-8MPIR megapixel vari-focal lenses. Both lenses feature 8 megapixel resolutions, IR correction and a minimum aperture of 1.5, so users can choose from a focal-range of 3.8-16 mm with the HV3816D-8MPIR or 11-40 mm with the HV1140D-8MPIR.
The (A) version DS-2CD4065F-A features ABF (Auto Back Focus) to automatically adjust the CMOS position to focus the camera to maintain clear, sharp images and compensate when changing from color to b/w mode or when switching in or out the IR cut filter.
