Hikvision DS-2CS54C8T-PH 1MP 720p Pinhole Camera - 2.8mm Lens, SONY CCD, 75dB WDR

Discreet, high-performance covert surveillance with a Sony CCD sensor. The Hikvision DS-2CS54C8T-PH is a 1MP 720p pinhole camera fitted with a 2.8mm lens, built around a high-performance Sony CCD sensor for sharp 700TVL image quality in a compact, discreet form factor.

With more than 75 dB Wide Dynamic Range, this camera handles strong backlighting well, keeping detail visible in challenging light conditions. Its low-light sensitivity down to 0.002 Lux allows it to keep producing usable footage in near-dark environments, and an automatic electronic colour-to-black-and-white switch enables true day/night surveillance without manual intervention. The compact pinhole form factor makes it possible to monitor an area without drawing attention to the presence of a camera, which suits sensitive or discreet surveillance requirements.

Good to know

Pinhole cameras are typically built into a wall, ceiling, or fixture for concealment — plan your installation location and cabling route before mounting. Because the lens itself is small and fixed, positioning during installation is important, as the viewing angle can't be adjusted once it's built into place.
