Descrizione
A security camera is judged twice: once when you buy it, and again at three in the morning when something has happened and you need to know what. The second judgement is where resolution stops being a specification and becomes the difference between a shape in a hoodie and a face you can hand to someone.
This camera records at 12 megapixels, roughly 4096 by 3072, which is three times the pixel count of the 4 megapixel cameras that dominate the same price band. The 1/2.7 inch back side illuminated sensor and F1.6 lens gather enough light to keep colour in the picture after dark, and a pair of lights on the housing switches between infrared and visible illumination so night footage stays in colour instead of grey. 120 dB wide dynamic range keeps a face readable against a bright doorway or a headlight, H.265+ keeps file sizes and bandwidth down, and the IP67 housing takes weather without a separate enclosure.
Power and data arrive on one Ethernet cable through PoE, and footage can record to a microSD card up to 512 gigabytes inside the camera, so nothing depends on a monthly subscription. Human and vehicle detection filters out the motion of trees and cats, which is the difference between a useful alert and a phone that gets muted after the first week.
The camera is cheap. The certainty is what you are buying.
Key Features
- ✦ 12 megapixel 3K resolution at 4096 by 3072 for identifiable detail rather than silhouettes.

- ✦ 1/2.7 inch back side illuminated sensor with an F1.6 lens for low light performance.
- ✦ 120 dB wide dynamic range handles bright doorways and headlights without blowing out faces.
- ✦ H.265+ compression cuts bandwidth and storage without dropping image quality.
- ✦ PoE power and data over a single Ethernet cable, with DC 12 V as an alternative.
- ✦ Human and vehicle detection with Motion Detection 2.0 filtering out weather and animal movement.
- ✦ IP67 rated housing and direct microSD recording up to 512 GB with no subscription required.

Where It Belongs
Front doors where a package left at the step has to be provable; driveways and side gates where a face matters more than a footprint; small businesses replacing a subscription cloud package with local recording; and outbuildings or yards where one Ethernet run covers both power and data.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need a subscription?
No. The camera records to a microSD card up to 512 gigabytes inside the housing, so a subscription is optional rather than required for basic recording.
Q: What is the advantage of 12 megapixels?
Identification. At 12 megapixels you can crop into a frame and still read a face or a plate, which is difficult at 4 megapixels, where a person tends to become a shape.
Q: How does it get power?
Power over Ethernet delivers power and data on one cable, which keeps the install to a single run. A DC 12 volt input is available if PoE is not an option.
Q: Does it record in colour at night?
Yes. The dual light system uses visible illumination for colour footage and switches to infrared for zero light conditions. Colour night mode uses more power and can draw attention, so it suits entrances rather than discreet coverage.
Q: Will it work with my existing recorder?
It is an IP camera that supports ONVIF and mainstream NVR platforms. Confirm the recorder supports 12 megapixel streams before purchase if you plan to record centrally rather than to the card.
Q: What is WDR for?
Wide dynamic range keeps both the bright and dark parts of a scene visible at the same time. At 120 dB, a face standing in a sunlit doorway stays readable instead of turning into a dark patch.
The EastSupplier Promise
EastSupplier reports the sensor, the resolution, and the storage limit as the manufacturer states them, because a security camera is bought for evidence rather than for atmosphere. If the delivered unit does not match this specification sheet, the return window applies from delivery day.
