Classic camera styling with infra-red vision
The Swann C-510R color camera combines the sophisticated look and performance of a high-end security camera with the ease-of-use and low-cost benefits of DIY related products, and is equally suitable for use in commercial and residential applications. In addition to a number of electronic light controls, this camera uses an array of built-in IR LEDs to illuminate a distance of up to 65 feet. Included with the camera, is a 4mm lens, which can be swapped for any C/CS mount lens, including one with auto iris capabilities, should the need arise. Also included, is a 32ft (10m) long BNC video cable and a camera bracket for sturdy attachment to a wall or ceiling.
Better Resolution for a higher quality image
The Swann C-510R features an incredible 1/4-inch CCD image sensor a resolution of 400 TV Lines or 512 x 492 (NTSC).
About CCD
CCD stands for Charge Coupled Device, which is used as a type of image sensor. CCD sensors are high quality sensors that are commonly used in portable camcorders and similar video equipment. CCD sensors can usually handle more variation in light conditions than CMOS and are more sensitive so will work better in low and variable light conditions.
Spectacular Night Vision
The Infra-Red LEDs can project IR light that is invisible to the human eye but can be seen by the Swann C-510R to a distance ranging to 32ft / 10 metres. With a small amount of ambient light, such as street lighting and house lighting the distance can be extended.
Infra-Red Night Vision allows cameras to see in the dark, It is the method of using IR LEDs (Infra-Red Light Emitting Diodes) as illumination for a camera with a sensor that can see infra-red light provides the illumination needed to capture clear images in total darkness or low-light conditions
Infra-Red light is part of the light spectrum that is not visible to the human eye. Where there is insufficient visible light to see an object a Swann C-510R camera automatically activates its IR mode and sees the light from the IR LEDs using its IR image sensor. The resulting image is displayed as a black and white picture on your screen.
