Even in the harshest lighting conditions, the flagships
of our camera lines – the FlexiDome 2X and Dinion 2X
– give you the highest level of image quality. We have
engineered these cameras to perform flawlessly in
natural and artificial light so you always get the best
results. Strong backlighting, high-contrast or low-light
scenes – the 2X cameras handle it all with ease and
expose details not visible to the naked eye.
FlexiDome 2X and Dinion 2X
The clearest images, day or night
The next generation of image quality
Dinion 2X and FlexiDome 2X are the newest generation
of Bosch's industry-leading image capture solutions.
Each builds upon the achievements of the Dinion and
FlexiDome families which redefined the standards for
image quality, first with 10-bit, then 15-bit image
processing.
Now the 2X generation with 20-bit technology raises the
bar even higher and delivers on the promise of revealing
every detail – even in difficult settings and low light.
