FEATURES
yHigh Resolution
Use of a 1.3mega pixel CMOS device provides clear pictures with a horizontal resolution
of 1000TVL.
yExcellent Sensitivity
The built-in high sensitivity COLOR CMOS produces a clear image.
- Color : 0.05Lux (F1.4, 50IRE), 0.001Lux (1sec, F1.4, 50IRE)
0.02Lux (F1.4, 30IRE), 0.0006Lux (1sec, F1.4, 30IRE)
B/W : 0Lux (IR LED On)
yIntelligence
Without an external sensor, you can use this product to detect motion and generate
alarms and thus more efficient monitoring can be achieved.

The high-performance W7 effectively removes low-light gain noise and afterimage to
provide clear images even in dark environments.
yDay&Night
This camera has a function that automatically selects the mode that is appropriate
for daytime or night-time conditions. The COLOR mode operates in daytime condi-
tions to provide optimum colors, and B/W mode operates in night-time conditions to
enhance the definition of the image.
ySSDR (Samsung Super Dynamic Range)
For images with high contrast between bright and dark areas from difficult lighting conditions
such as backlighting, this camera selectively illuminates darker areas while retaining the same
light level for brighter areas to even out the overall brightness.
yPROFILE
You can set a mode according to the camera installation conditions.
- BASIC, DAY/NIGHT, BACKLIGHT, ITS, INDOOR, USER
yDIS (Digital Image Stabilizer)
The DIS function compensates for any camera movement, to produce more stable
pictures.
