Speed Dome Камера Hikvision ColorVu 25х 4Mp DS-2SE4C425MWG-E(14F0) - Дневной и Ночной Режимы!

Hello. The camera model is indicated in the name. This Hikvision CCTV camera is equipped with the ColorVu system, which means it can shoot color images at night. The camera is designed for outdoor installation and has dust and moisture protection according to the IP66 standard. It is equipped with two 4MP sensors, as indicated by the TandemVu inscription. In fact, these are two independent CCTV cameras in a single housing. The first camera is panoramic, with a fixed focal length of 2.8 mm. And the second PTZ camera has a varifocal lens with a focal length range from 4.8 mm to 120 mm. In addition to the 25x optical zoom, it has full control and can rotate in the horizontal plane by 360 °. In fact, this is why people buy such devices. Package contents: • Camera, • Bracket with hardware, • 12V power supply, • Hex key, • Sealed coupling, • Documentation. There is POE support, as well as connectors for connecting an external microphone and speaker. After unscrewing the back cover, we immediately insert the memory card. The included expansion dowels do not suit me, so we attach the bracket to M6 bolts, but it would be better to use M8. This is approximately how this Hikvision camera shoots during the day with absolutely basic settings. Focus, exposure, white balance, sharpness, noise reduction and everything else are at default values, but if desired, the picture can be corrected. By and large, all these settings are the same for all cameras of this brand and I already have a separate video about this. It also shows how to activate the camera, select the resolution, image bitrate, set up the recording mode, remote control from a smartphone and much more. Today's camera from Hikvision is a robot. And in order for the camera to automatically follow a given route and conduct "Patrol", you need to specify a path for it. First, you need to create several Presets. The easiest way is to go to the "Real Time View" menu, select the desired camera, do not forget that we have two of them and go to the "Presets" tab. Direct the camera to the point of interest to us, zoom and, if desired, adjust the focus, although the automatic one works very correctly. Now click on an existing or new preset and save. If desired, repeat the process and create the required number of presets. The function of quickly switching the camera view between presets is also available from a smartphone. If we need the camera to move along the specified points independently, then we need to go to the "Patrol" tab. For this camera, it is possible to create 8 independent patrol routes. Select an existing or empty one and simply press "+" to add the presets we need. Now select the number of the desired preset, set the speed and time. Launch the Patrol mode. The camera rotation speed is measured in degrees per second. Therefore, if we set the value to 30, this means that turning the camera 180° in the horizontal plane will last 6 seconds. Select a higher value if you want the camera to move between presets faster. Time indicates the number of seconds that the camera will display this preset before moving to the next one. The minimum value here is 15 seconds, if you need it faster, then only manually. The mode is cyclical, and when the camera passes the last preset in this patrol, it automatically moves to the first one. Now, let's look at the ColorVu color night shooting mode. There are no miracles for the correct operation of the color mode, the camera uses an additional built-in diode backlight. This is how the night picture looks on a fixed panoramic camera. By the way, to hide areas in the frame that you do not want to shoot, you can use masks for each of the two cameras. Go to the menu "Configuration", "Image", "Privacy Mask". Draw an area, click "Add" and "Save". You can select the desired color of the area or its blur. And now let's see how the PTZ camera shoots at night, in color. The first 4 presets show nothing except digital noise, and only when you move to the backlit area, colors appear. In order not to drag out the video, I quickly change the presets in manual mode, so the automatic focus mode does not always have time to work correctly, in fact, the situation with sharpness in the frame is much better. If the moon was shining or the lights of a big city were on, the picture would be much better, but I am showing the reality of the private sector. Well, for clarity, let's look at the night shooting mode obtained using standard infrared illumination. Let me remind you that the camera shoots with a resolution of 2560 by 1440 pixels and in order to fully appreciate the picture, you must select this resolution in the video settings. And your screen must be able to resolve a similar picture or even a larger one. If your display has a Full HD resolution, then you will see a picture 30% worse than it actually is. But not everything is so
