Hikvision expands DarkFighter range

Hikvision is expanding its DarkFighter low-light surveillance camera range with the release of the DS-2DF8223I-AEL pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) network camera which utilises a 23x optical zoom lens and is designed to capture colour and monochrome images in extreme low-light conditions. The camera features a large (1/1.9 inch), 2MP, progressive scan CMOS image sensor to capture colour images down to 0.002 Lux and monochrome to 0.0002 Lux. Together with a 120dB wide dynamic range and Hikvision’s 3D digital noi

8011 Hikvision is expanding its DarkFighter low-light surveillance camera range with the release of the DS-2DF8223I-AEL pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) network camera which utilises a 23x optical zoom lens and is designed to capture colour and monochrome images in extreme low-light conditions.

The camera features a large (1/1.9 inch), 2MP, progressive scan CMOS image sensor to capture colour images down to 0.002 Lux and monochrome to 0.0002 Lux.

Together with a 120dB wide dynamic range and Hikvision’s 3D digital noise reduction technology, the camera is capable of streaming full HD 1920 x 1080 video at full frame rate.

IR distance of up to 200m is further supported to ensure image capture in the darkest environment.
