  • Use for many versatile applications due to broad focal length adjustment range
  • Ultra wide 2.8mm view to telephoto 11.5mm
  • Built-in DC auto iris provides automatic adjustments when lighting conditions change
  • Compatible with ALL CS-mount 1/3" CCD video cameras

The CSL-312A can be used to provide a dynamic field of view control between 2.8mm and 11.5mm focal lengths. It should be noted that the picture will have an "artifically" wide field of view with some curvarture of the video image for any focal length setting wider than roughly 5.0mm. Unfortunately, there is NO way to provide such a wide viewing angle without this type of distortion. The distortion disappears when the lens is adjusted to a more narrow field of view.

This is a varifocal zoom lens, and all lens adjustments must be made manually by hand. Once the desired focal length is acheived, the lens has thumb screws which tighten to maintain that specific focal length. We also carry fixed focus C-mount lenses for those applications where desired.

The CSL-312A employs voltage from the camera's auto-iris port to automatically adjust the amount of light which passes through the lens optical glass and reaches the imager. This feature allows for brilliant lighting in many diverse and changing lighting conditions. However, its extra light gain sensitivity can make the video image too bright under certain direct forward lighting circumstances. When room illumination is likely to remain constant, a manual iris lens in fact offers better overall image quality in many situations. For these types of camera installations, we also carry the CSL-312M.

This lens has a security-industry standard CS-mount lens thread, making it compatible with the following Eyespyvideo.com models: TV-CSHRL, TV-CSHR, TV-CSHDN, and TV-BCSHR. The auto-iris port on these cameras provides seamlessly compatibilty with the CSL-312A. However, this lens is NOT compatible with the special auto-iris port built into the TV-XCS model camera. We offer a variation of the CSL-312A for this camera, our CSL-312X.

  • The new CC-5XDWDR Color Weatherproof Bullet Camera has incredibly clear 700 TV lines of resolution, Digital Wide Dynamic Range and 2D Digital Noise Reduction.
  • The wide dynamic range (WDR) function of a camera is intended to provide clear images even under extreme light circumstances where intensity of illumination can vary excessively, namely when there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view of the camera. WDR enables the capture and display of both bright and dark areas in the same frame, in a way that there are details in both areas, i.e. bright areas are not saturated, and dark areas are not too dark. It also offers amazing low light capability.
  • Digital Noise refers to the random dot pattern that is superimposed on the picture as a result of electronic noise; the 'snow' that is similar to what can be seen with poor (analog) television reception or on VHS tapes. The Digital Noise Reduction feature reduces that "noise" from the cctv camera image.
  • This is the best bullet camera we have seen in terms of performance.
  • If you are installing a new system or upgrading an existing one this would be the best choice. It is cutting edge so you won't have to worry about having out-dated equipment 6 months from now.
  • Feel free to call us at 800-568-9291 for more information.
