Profile:
Unbelievable performance for a pinhole camera! We've had many customer reports of cameras out there which look and spec IDENTICALLY to this unit, but which are much inferior in comparison. The "430+ horizontal TV lines / 0.0003 lux" cam is world's smallest 1/3" CCD enclosed case camera and is capable of performing in lower light situations than any other pinhole camera. The choice for a variety of potentially low-light applications- whether for covert / hidden / disguised purposes..... or just general video use. Newly revised 1/3" Sony Ex-View DSP (digital signal processing) CCD imager chipset. In normal to medium lighting, this features identical picture quality to our other enclosed case BW-4/5HAD configurations, as well as the exposed board BW-1HAD.
It should be noted that we have six other black and white (monochrome) cameras with the same ultra low-light capable chipset: #BW-5HR (high resolution pinhole), #TV-BCSHR (high resolution CS mount) and weatherproof bullets #BW-4LL and #BW-4EX. The #BW-4LL/EX qnd BW-5LLM/HRM are board lens cameras, which let more light into the imager than a pinhole lens and actually allow them to image in even lower lighting than this cam will do. However, for any covert pinhole available, the BW-5LL and BW-5HR are unmatched in low-light performance.
We carry ONLY the LATEST and BEST in CCTV chipset technology and circuit board engineering (both aspects are critical to produce a high quality CCD camera)! Too many in our industry are still liquidating 'antiques' on an unsuspecting public, often even unaware themselves that better technology exists.
Common Applications:
• General covert / disguised use as it easy to hide behind many types of materials
• Economical indoor security solutions
• Onboard vehicle use including security and backup purposes
• OEM & scientific / machine purposes
Available Options:
DELUXE 7 piece bonus accessory kit included FREE with each camera ordered! ($60+ value) Features 25 ft. video + power cable which can be upgraded to 50', 100' or even 150' in your choice of black or white color!
Variations / Alternate Equipment to Consider:
If the highest resolution covert imaging is required- you may want to consider the use of our high resolution #BW-5HR camera instead of this one. However, it should be mentioned that very few people will notice a 'naked eye' difference between the picture from #BW-5LL and #BW-5HR. So, for typical general or security CCTV use, this could almost be considered a waste of money. The high resolution aspect is reserved primarily for those with advanced or specialized recording and/ or monitoring applications and equipment.
Though not covert, we also carry the #BW-5LLM and #BW-5HRM with interchangeable board lenses available (2.45mm, 2.97mm, 6mm, 8mm, 12mm, 16mm).
Cautions:
This is a non-weatherproof camera, and as such- must be treated with extra care and NEVER left outdoors without the proper protective housings.
Fixed pinhole lens is not interchangeable like many of our board-type lens cameras.
