FAQ

What is Smart-Hybrid light technology and how does it work?

Smart-Hybrid light technology automatically switches between infrared and white light illumination based on environmental conditions and security needs. This provides optimal image quality while offering flexible lighting options for different surveillance scenarios, with both IR and white light reaching up to 40 meters.

What does the F1.0 aperture mean for image quality?

The F1.0 aperture allows maximum light to enter the camera sensor, enabling 24/7 color imaging even in very low light conditions. This large aperture significantly improves night vision performance and reduces the need for artificial lighting while maintaining color detail.
