This minidome network camera delivers Full HD quality images around the clock – indoors or outside. The vandal- and weather-resistant SNC-EM642R is ideal for a wide range of demanding security, surveillance and monitoring applications, from banks, factories, shopping malls and offices to airports, car parks and transportation systems. The camera captures crisp, low-noise Full HD images, even in challenging low-light conditions. The sensitive 1/2.8" type Exmor R CMOS image sensor is teamed with XDNR processing, improving low-light performance and achieving the minimum illumination of 0.006 lux 30 IRE in colour mode. View-DR expands dynamic range for significantly improved imaging in high-contrast and strongly backlit scenes, like sun-drenched offices or car park entrances. Image stabilisation keeps video images crisp and clear, even when the camera is subject to vibration on a mounting pole or bracket.The camera can see in conditions of complete darkness, with built-in IR infrared illumination that coupled with Advanced IR technology to capture near and far-away objects without overexposure. The SNC-EM642R can clearly capture objects in total darkness at distances up to 60m 30 IRE from the camera.
