Battle low light with DarkFighter

Hikvision has launched its ultra-low-light surveillance in the DS-2CD6026FHWD DarkFighter network camera. This camera uses Hikvision’s ultra low-light MP lens and is designed specifically to capture sharp colour and monochrome images in extreme, low-light conditions. The result is clear colour images down to 0.002 Lux and B/W to 0.0002 Lux.

The DarkFighter’s ultra low-light performance delivers full colour images day and night that would defeat conventional monochrome IP cameras and competing low-light cameras. As well as opening up new opportunities for 24-hour CCTV surveillance, it is the ideal replacement for conventional network cameras.

The DarkFighter camera features a two-megapixel, ½ inch progressive scan CMOS image sensor. Together with a 120 dB WDR (wide dynamic range) and Hikvision’s 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) technology, the new camera is able to stream video in full 1080p HD at 60 fps, which results in latency free clear images day and night. A defog feature is also incorporated to noticeably improve image clarity in poor weather conditions, such as rain or fog.

A choice of wide-angle and telephoto varifocal MP lenses is available, including IR correction, and ABF (auto back focus) functionality, which allows the camera to adjust positioning of the image sensor to obtain an optimal focus.

With support for ONVIF, PSIA, and CGI standards, the new camera also offers quick and easy integration with other video surveillance equipment and systems, creating the solution that matched different requirements.
