ColorVu Technology for 24/7 Color Imaging
The DS-2CE72DFT-FC features Hikvision’s specialized ColorVu technology that ensures clear, vivid color reproduction even in challenging lighting conditions:
- Full-color imaging capability in near-darkness
- F1.0 super-aperture lens for maximum light gathering
- Enhanced sensor sensitivity for superior low-light performance
- Supplemental lighting for color imaging at 0 lux
Additionally, the camera utilizes advanced 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) to produce cleaner images in low-light environments without sacrificing detail or color accuracy, resulting in evidence-quality footage around the clock.
HD Video Quality with Analog Compatibility
The DS-2CE72DFT-FC delivers high-definition video while maintaining compatibility with existing analog systems:
- 2MP resolution with 1920 × 1080 output
- HD-TVI technology for transmission over coaxial cable
- Up to 30fps frame rate for smooth motion capture
- Multiple video output formats (TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS) for flexible installation
Furthermore, the camera supports UTC (Up the Coax) technology, allowing configuration and settings adjustments directly through the coaxial cable without requiring additional control wiring or network connections.
Durable Turret Design for Various Environments
Engineered for reliable operation in diverse settings, the DS-2CE72DFT-FC offers:
- IP67 weatherproof rating ensuring protection against dust and water
- Operating temperature range from -40°C to 60°C (-40°F to 140°F)
- 3-axis adjustment for flexible positioning and precise aiming
- Compact turret form factor for discreet installation
Moreover, the camera’s turret design combines the vandal resistance of traditional domes with the flexible mounting options of bullet cameras, providing security professionals with a versatile solution for various deployment scenarios.
Optimized Fixed Lens Performance
The DS-2CE72DFT-FC comes equipped with a carefully selected 3.6mm fixed lens that delivers:
- 78° horizontal field of view for optimal coverage
- F1.0 aperture for superior light gathering capability
- Clear imaging from 2.3m to infinity
- Balanced perspective for general surveillance applications
In addition, the fixed lens design eliminates moving parts that could potentially fail over time, increasing the camera’s overall reliability and reducing maintenance requirements.
