Profile:
What a super placement - nobody EVER spots this lens! Don't confuse this with most similar-looking 'factory-made' covert cameras you'll find out there- many of which are complete junk. These are handcrafted in the USA by our specialty technicians. The same "430+ horizontal TV lines / 0.03 lux" cam now has an overall sharper picture capable of performing in lower light situations than even the last revision version.
A great choice for many stationary ceiling mount applications- whether for covert / hidden / disguised purposes..... or just general video surveillance (hallways, etc.). With the newly revised 1/3" Sony SuperHAD DSP (digital signal processing) CCD imager chipset- this features identical picture quality to our enclosed case #BW-2/5HAD cameras.
Acoustical tile 'drop' ceilings tend to be ideal for this unit. Since the single video power cable (25 ft.) extends from the very top of the camera, a 'good' mount requires a small hole be made in the ceiling above unit for the video/ power cables extending from top of camera. Then, wiring itself is out of sight and can often be run several rooms away (or across a building with the proper extensions) to the monitor and/ or recorder.
View of camera is a wide angle, and the camera itself is mounted at a diagonal downward tilt from side of camera (mounted straight from the side or bottom would result in viewing ceiling or the tops of subjects heads only!). When used with low ceilings, user tends to get great close-ups of passers by, but not much else. A 10-15' ceiling is considered ideal for many 'total room coverage' applications. Even higher ceilings allow more square footage of activity to be captured, but view may sacrifice some detail since subjects will be further away and therefore smaller in picture.
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.
Common Applications:
• Commercial employee monitoring
• General residential and commercial indoor security solutions
• Residential nanny / babysitter monitoring
• Elderly abuse protection
Available Options:
DELUXE bonus accessory kit included FREE with each camera ordered!
Variations / Alternate Equipment to Consider:
We also carry a color version #DC-22. Still same wide field of view with 3.7mm lens and 1/3" Sony DSP SuperHAD image sensor.
We also carry 2 WIRELESS versions of this camera, the color #WDC-22 and the black & white #WDB-22. Nice range and reception from a hidden 2.4GHz transmitter (900 MHz versions available by special request only).
Cautions:
You should always give careful consideration when choosing covert products. Oftentimes, customers don't fully consider some of the practical logistics before making a purchase, only to later realize that a particular placement really isn't feasible. Smoke detector cameras are great for a variety of placements, but have some limitations (read more above).
