Profile:

What a dynamite little camera! Don't confuse this with most similar-looking cameras you'll see out there- many of which are complete junk. The technical specifications (specs) haven't changed in over 3 years - but the performance sure has! The same "380+ horizontal TV lines / 0.5 lux" cam now has an overall sharper picture capable of performing in lower light situations than even the last revision version. The CC-1HAD has even blown some "high resolution" cameras away in side-by-side comparisons. A super choice for low profile and bodyworn applications- whether for covert / hidden / disguised purposes..... or just general video use. With the newly revised 1/3" Sony SuperHAD DSP (digital signal processing) CCD imager chipset- this features identical picture quality the CC-1HAD and to our enclosed case CC-7HAD configurations.

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.

Though the board width/ height is a few millimeters larger than the enclosed case metal versions, this camera weighs less and slightly lower in profile. Also, the video/ power cable comes straight down from the bottom of the camera- rather than attached to a 90° plug at the rear. This may allow for easier covert use in certain (esp. clothing/ body worn) applications.

Common Applications:

•Bodyworn under clothing
•General covert disguised use as it easy to hide behind many types of materials, including fabric for clothing
•Lightweight R/C (radio controlled) or other applications where minimizing size and payload weight is crucial (weighs only 17 grams without factory cable set or heatshrink)
•For temporary, experimental or "disposable" applications in which a sharp and/ or low light camera is required that may be prone to damage or destruction
•Onboard vehicle use including security and backup purposes
•Sport usage for 'extreme' footage
•Economical security solution
•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!

*These are available without the normally added heat shrink coating by special request- with a special warning. We have many customers who may wish to use these in applications where the heatshrink is unwelcome. Perhaps they wish to use the tiny holes on the edge of the board to custom mount into a placement- such as an OEM manufacturer. These users are welcome, but must understand that any type of physical or electronic damage will not be covered by any warranty. Simply request part # NO-HS from operator when placing your order.

Variations / Alternate Equipment to Consider:

We also carry a flatface version #CC-1HAD with a flat face around the lens. Still same wide field of view with 3.7mm lens, but flat face version has more surface area around lens for more secure placements behind thin and/or flat materials.

If the highest resolution covert imaging is required- and a little more space permits- you may want to consider the use of our high resolution color #CC-1XP camera instead of this one. The CC-1XP is larger (has two boards) and slightly heavier, but uses the latest Sony® high resolution/ low light Ex-View® technology.

We also carry the #BW-1HAD, which is a flatface pinhole camera of same shape, size and weight- but black & white (monochrome) imaging instead.

Cautions:

As an 'exposed board' camera module- rather than an enclosed camera- the drawback to smaller size and weight is being much more prone to physical damage. Our special 3M heatshrink protection only helps to protect against short-circuiting the board components with foreign objects. The heat shrink does not give any real protection against physical shock or exposure from the elements.

Fixed pinhole lens is not interchangeable like many of our board-type lens cameras.

This is a non-weatherproof camera, and as such- must be treated with extra care and NEVER left outdoors or exposed to the elements without the proper protective housings. Even condensation moisture or dust can 'creep' into the board components.
