Frequently Asked Questions
The DS-2CD1357G0-LUF provides a maximum resolution of 2560 × 1920, which equals 5 megapixels. This higher resolution allows the camera to capture more image detail compared to standard 4 MP models. According to the datasheet, the camera supports up to 20 fps at full 5 MP resolution and higher frame rates at lower resolutions. This makes it suitable for applications where clarity and detail are important.
ColorVu technology enables the DS-2CD1357G0-LUF to deliver 24/7 full-color video. The camera uses an F1.0 super-aperture lens and a high-performance sensor to collect more light in low-light environments. The datasheet specifies minimum illumination of 0.001 lux in color mode and 0 lux when the white light is enabled. This allows the camera to maintain color detail even at night.
Yes, the camera includes built-in white light illumination to support night-time monitoring. The supplement light has an effective range of up to 30 meters, as listed in the datasheet. This white light works with ColorVu technology to ensure color images rather than black-and-white footage. Smart supplement light control helps manage brightness for clearer images.
The DS-2CD1357G0-LUF is available with fixed focal lens options of 2.8 mm or 4 mm. The 2.8 mm lens provides a wider horizontal field of view of 95°, while the 4 mm lens offers a narrower 76° field of view for longer-range coverage. These options allow installers to select the lens that best fits the surveillance area. All lens options use an F1.0 aperture for improved low-light performance.
Yes, the DS-2CD1357G0-LUF model includes a built-in microphone, indicated by the “-U” designation. The datasheet lists support for mono audio with multiple compression formats such as G.711, G.722.1, G.726, and AAC-LC. Audio recording can provide additional context during incidents when permitted by local regulations. Environmental noise filtering is also supported.
The camera supports H.265+, H.265, H.264+, and H.264 video compression formats. These compression technologies help reduce bandwidth usage and storage requirements while maintaining image quality. The datasheet specifies a configurable video bit rate ranging from 32 Kbps up to 16 Mbps. MJPEG is also supported on the sub-stream.
