Overview of the Hikvision DS-2DF7274-A

This Hikvision IP camera features full pan/tilt/zoom capability within an IP66 rated housing, suitable for installation within a wide external area. Able to deliver up to 1.3 megapixel resolution images at 25 frames per second (fps)maximum, this PTZ camera is also day/night ready providing 24 hour surveillance with a built-in infrared (IR) cut filter. A range of Hikvision's SMART features and configurable alarm triggers enable enhanced levels of surveillance - ideal for customers looking for a stand alone system within a large area. Optional zooming methods enable closer views within the field of view and further investigation into the image, ideal for identification purposes. Additionally, this unit includes on-board storage and support for triple streaming. 

The endless 360° pan and 90° tilt allows a wide area to be covered with a single unit resulting in a cost-effective surveillance solution within installations that would normally require multiple fixed IP cameras. A 20x optical zoom enables the user to obtain a closer view of specific areas within the field of view that are of interest, while a 16x digital zoom allows further investigation into the image - ideal for identification. 

True day/night capability is achieved with a built-in IR cut filter that switches from full colour to monochrome night vision, providing 24 hour CCTV surveillance. Integrated infrared illuminators, enable the camera to provide detailed black-and-white video even in complete darkness up to a range of 150 metres.

Video motion detections such as Hikvision's Smart tracking aim to enhance effectiveness of surveillance by detecting movement within the field of view, and then follow the objects movements until it leaves the scene - ideal in areas where a high level of security is needed for example large business entrances. Various alarms can be configured and when triggered send alert notifications to users via email or mobile devices, ensuring a high level of dynamic awareness within the scene. Up to twenty four programmable privacy masks are configurable within this IP camera that prevents operators from viewing certain areas of the unit’s view that may be private or sensitive.

The network camera also includes a range of image enhancement technologies such as electronic image stabilisation (EIS), which reduces the effects of camera movement from vibrations and defog technology, which filters dust, fog and smoke from images to improve visibility. For scenes in challenging lighting such as dark shadows and bright highlights, wide dynamic range (WDR) ensures detail is captured in all areas and 3D noise reduction improves video quality in low lighting.

H.264, MPEG-4 and MJPEG compression standards are all supported, providing flexibility depending on requirements, whilst triple streaming reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by enabling up to three streams with different resolutions and frame rates to be configured. Built-in MicroSD card slot (card not included) allows up to 128GB to be stored internally on the camera, providing a back-up in the situation of a network failure.
