IR-5EX DSP (digital signal processing) CCD exposed board camera module with Sony Ex-View 1/3" imager. 3.6mm wide angle board lens included installed. *No optional lenses available in this camera.

Profile:

What a tiny powerhouse! This blows away the picture and illumination performance of cameras several times larger. The technical specifications (specs) make it sound like so many others - but the performance beats the numbers on this one. The 380+ horizontal TV lines / 0.05 lux creates a sharp picture capable of performing in ZERO light conditions. With a newly revised 1/3" Sony(R) Ex-View(R) DSP (digital signal processing) CCD imager chipset- this is one special new camera.

This truly illuminates up to 50 feet in pitch dark conditions. Many lookalike models can barely illuminate past 10-12 feet! With a built-in photocell and smart light-sensing circuitry, this saves use of IR illuminators until they are actually necessary. Using the high output LED emitters only when necessary adds a lot of time to their overall effective life.

Common Applications:

• Reliable indoor and outdoor security solutions for areas which have very little to NO light present
• Wildlife viewing and research
• Equestrian foaling as remote barn cameras
• OEM & scientific / machine purposes

Includes removable sun / rain shade and metal 360 degree swivel mounting kit FREE with each camera ordered.


Variations / Alternate Equipment to Consider:

Our #IR-5H is just a bit larger but has the option to install different lenses.

Our #IR-2H is just a bit larger but is black & white (monochrome)-only and also has the option to install different lenses.

Cautions:

Wide angle lenses may capture more video in the frame than is actually being illuminated since IR emitters project their light at a set angle of emission.

Infrared cameras cannot be placed behind glass, etc. (i.e. inside a window). The camera "sees" the infrared light as if it were bright white light. When you place an infrared camera behind glass, the activated illuminators will create a visual halo around the picture as the illuminators are reflected back at the camera. Only certain types of filters will prevent this- such as the material built into the front face of the IR-5EX, IR-2H and IR-5H.

This camera is not submersible.

These bullet cameras are great and are considered rugged, but care must be used when handling the attached video /power cable. Most any problems ever seen with our bullet cameras are caused by too much pulling stress being applied, resulting in connection damage inside the camera.
