The DF5200HD-DN/IR Nightline from the German CCTV manufacturer Dallmeier has been developed for difficult light and site conditions for 24-hour video surveillance.
According to the makers the camera provides recordings with excellent contrast, brilliant clarity as well as highest detail resolution and colour fidelity, even in low light. The high light sensitivity of the sensor and the image processing ensure crisp colour images even in the dark it is claimed. In night mode, the camera offers infrared (IR) sensitivity and integrated IR illumination.
The camera comes with an ambient light sensor and a removable IR cut filter and can automatically switch between day and night mode. Different day and night presets for the exposure settings can be defined and adjusted.
The product has an integrated adaptive IR illumination provided by semi-covert 850 nm high power LEDs. The new IR hood which is already included in delivery absorbs unwanted IR stray light and thus increases image quality in IR night mode.
The camera has a motor-driven megapixel varifocal lens that is peectly tuned to the image sensor. The adjustment of zoom, focus and iris is made using a web browser. The manual lens setting directly at the installation site of the camera is not required.
Built into an IP66-rated weather-proof enclosure, the camera is designed for both indoor and for outdoor uses. The camera is operated via Power over Ethernet (PoE Class 0, IEEE 802.3af) for cabling and commissioning.
