Arecont Vision Contera Micro Bullet cameras

Product Profile

The Contera® Micro Bullet outdoor-ready megapixel camera features 1080p and 5-megapixel (MP) resolution for optimum performance.  The Contera Micro Bullet combines a day/night mechanical IR cut filter with an integrated 3.6mm lens. 

Regardless of the time of day, the Contera Micro Bullet is prepared for any lighting condition. For applications with poor lighting conditions, Enhanced WDR™ (wide dynamic range) at 120dB provides the best visual balance to shaded and bright light conditions. 

For clear colour images in low-light, NightView™ offers strong low-light sensitivity for capturing details in extremely poor-lit scenes, and is further enhanced by built-in Smart IR LED illumination that automatically adjusts output in response to the distance of an object in view to prevent over-exposure when the object is very close to the camera. 

The Contera Micro Bullet is ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) Profile S compliant, providing interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer.
