The sensitivity of the new 12 Bit b/w-camera CF 8 HS is extremely high. A high sensitive sensor in combination with intelligent low-noise circuits raise the sensitivity by 400 %. The Low Light Level Camera is predestined for the observation of objects, rooms and scenes with very low or no illumination such as: Sophisticated CCTV setups, long-range observation tasks and low light applications with short exposures. An automatic iris control allows 24 h operation at any lighting condition in daytime and at night. The Kappa-DRE (Dynamic Range Enhancement) assures clear view in low contrast conditions like fog, fume or rain. The CF 8 HS of Kappa avoids blurring of moving objects and noise even in typical low-light level applications. Because of its low weight, small size and rugged design it fits inconspicuously into a variety of systems. Additional features are: variable operation voltage (9-36 V), low power consumption, remote control of parameters by RS 232 (e.g. configurable back light compensation, AIT, AGC, Gamma, horizontal image flip and selectable display windows).
