Hikvision DS-2CD2647G2-LZS 4MP 3.6-9mm Motorzoom ColorVu PoE

This camera:
This is the ultimate ColorVu camera (read more about the ColorVu concept below). It has a canon of good light sensitivity, and 60 meters of self-lighting. Note that in the ColoVu series, the light is visible, white light. The camera is simply connected to a PoE switch, PoE injector, 12v power supply or a recorder with PoE outputs. The camera has a 1 / 1.8 "Progressive Scan CMOS image sensor - that's good;)

But it does not end here, for generation 2, DS-2CD2647 G2 -LZS, means that the camera also has some pretty cool analysis that comes standard and is free to use. The analyzes include classification of people and vehicles, also known from AcuSense. (If you want this feature but without visible light, look at AcuSense cameras ).

The advantage of ColorVu
The ColorVu series is one of the best camera series for the price. What makes the surveillance camera different from other cameras is the light sensitivity, which is absolutely wildly impressive. Unlike conventional surveillance cameras, the camera's self-illumination is visible where it is IR on others (InfraRød approx. 850nm.). The visible light makes the cameras draw attention to themselves, as the light jumps into the eyes and therefore has a very preventive effect. Another advantage of the visible white light is also that they can act as extra light on the building.

Assembly
The camera can be mounted in all directions, both "upside down" where the camera is mounted e.g. in overhang or ceiling, side-facing, where the camera is mounted on a vertical wall and slanted, on skewed and sloping surfaces.

If the camera is not mounted on a surface where the joint can be on the "other side", a bracket should be considered, see the picture below:

The image is used as an example of the cord and mounting surface, NOT camera shape

If the "tail" of the camera can be on the other side of the mounting surface as shown above, then you do not need brackets.
