Number of LEDs

The number of backlight LEDs (see "Design and capabilities") provided in the camera design.

Theoretically, more LEDs provide more power and, accordingly, range (see below) and efficiency of IR illumination or LED illumination. However, in fact, such light sources can vary markedly in performance; in addition, a lot also depends on the features of the camera itself. Therefore, in fact, this indicator is a reference, and when choosing, it makes sense to pay attention to parameters that are closer to practice — in particular, the same backlight range (see below).

Illumination range

Operating range of the backlight (see "Design and capabilities") installed in the surveillance camera. This term usually means the maximum distance from the camera to the observed object, at which it is able to provide a relatively high-quality and legible image in the complete absence of other light sources. Of course, the actual backlight range may differ from the claimed one, and these differences are most often in the direction of increase (for example, due to the presence of the same additional light sources). However, if the possibility of shooting with backlight is important for you, you should focus on the claimed range.

Backlight compensation

WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) — extended dynamic range. WDR technology combines several frames with different exposures into one picture, as a result, dark areas are brightened, and overexposures are darkened, and the output is a picture with extremely uniform lighting. The true wide dynamic range technology is called True-WDR and it is implemented in the optical circuit at the hardware level, a special microprocessor is responsible for creating and mixing exposures. A more affordable alternative to wide dynamic range is Digital-WDR technology, which equalizes lighting through software algorithms.

DWDR (Digital Wide Dynamic Range) — extended dynamic range technology based on software brightening algorithms. DWDR brightens too dark areas of the frame, which can be completely blurred against the background of light areas. Digital brightening allows you to noticeably improve the quality of shooting in contrasting lighting conditions. Digital WDR cameras are noticeably cheaper than true True-WDR optics. Of course, the quality of digital brightening is inferior to True-WDR.

BLC (Back Light Compensation) — backlight compensation technology. This system is based on the work of digital signal processors DSP. So, the device, relatively speaking, "breaks" the frame into many segments, making its own adjustments to each of them. Backlight compensation brightens dark areas of...the frame well. The main disadvantage of the technology is the increase in the brightness of the already bright areas of the frame, due to which overexposure may appear in the picture.

WDR+BLC. The camcorder supports several lightening technologies at once, each of which is described in more detail above. Immediately, we note that the combination of WDR + BLC allows you to achieve an extremely clear and clear picture in almost any lighting conditions, from extreme contrast to insufficient and excessively bright.

DWDR+BLC. The device supports two popular clarification technologies at once, each of which is described in more detail above. The presence of DWDR + BLC technologies allows the camera to effectively brighten the dark areas of the frame. Such video cameras have proven themselves well when working in low light conditions.

Horizontal viewing angle

Horizontal viewing angle of the surveillance camera. For models with a variable value, the maximum value is indicated, since it is the width of the image that is important, and when zooming in, the zoom factor is more important than the angle. This paragraph also indicates the general angle of view for models with a circular field of view – in particular, cameras with a fisheye lens (see above)

The wider the viewing angle, the more space the camera captures and at the same time, the smaller the images of individual objects in the frame are obtained. Therefore, when choosing by this parameter, it is worth deciding what is more important – the ability to view a large scene or the visibility of small details in a relatively narrow field of view. Also note that with a wide field of view (100° or more), characteristic distortions can be observed at the edges of the frame, and the wider the angle, the more pronounced they are. This phenomenon can be eliminated by panoramic shooting (see "Design and features"), but this feature, in turn, complicates and increases the cost of the camera.

Maximum humidity

The highest relative humidity at which the camera is able to operate normally, without failures and breakdowns, for an unlimited time.

Modern electronics tolerate low humidity well, but high rates affect it negatively — with a long stay in such an atmosphere, moisture can condense on certain parts of the structure and various unpleasant consequences, from corrosion to short circuits and fires. Therefore, you can use the camera effectively and safely only in conditions where the humidity does not exceed the maximum recommended value specified in the specifications. At the same time, we note that many devices are able to endure short-term (up to several hours) exposure to high humidity without consequences.
