HIKVISION DARKFIGHTER CAMERAS PLUS
The dome on the other hand isn't quite as good in low light despite being a step higher in their Value Plus line but we already knew it wouldn't be from the stats. It does however seem to do extremely well and at less than $1000 CAD wholesale, seems to be a great unit for the money if you don't need long zoom or smart analytics. Again I'm afraid I don't have hard numbers. Rather than relying on them for actual low light performance figures I think they serve more as an abstract rating that you can compare against their other cameras and know, "oh, this one is going to perform better in low light versus that one".įor the PTZ it was always billed as a Darkfighter unit and you can see in the link above what kind of images it is producing at night with ambient light. In fact for the latter there is conflicting data because their literature claims 0.008 lux while the box label claims 0.005. I will say however that I don't trust Hikvision's light level stats because at the moment I'm using two models - the DS-2DE4A204IW-DE PTZ which I did the mini-review on here, and the DS-2CD2135FWD-I which is a 3.1MP fixed dome, and Hikvision claims color images down to 0.002 and 0.008 lux respectively.
At the moment my toolkit lacks a light meter so I can't give you quantified data on light levels just yet, however that will hopefully be rectified shortly. Having come from a telecommunications background with ILECs however I have a pretty good handle on doing installs.
I will confess I am a comparative amateur and hobbyist when it comes to this field and dabble in installs occasionally (although I may start to delve into it more professionally now).
