What is a dual imaging chipset and what advantage does it offer?
A8: A ‘dual- imaging’ chipset is so named for its ability to automatically revert from imaging in color to black and white when encountering lower lighting conditions. This technology is a breakthrough as many want color- but are finally beginning to understand its drawbacks in lower lighting conditions- where it may appear grainy. Rather than having to switch between two separate cameras for alternating light conditions, a dual imager allows the same camera to view in color when lighting is adequate, but switch to monochrome / black and white when light falls below that required for adequate color imaging. We offer 3 cameras with this technology- our #CC-X2 covert pinhole board camera, and the weatherproof #IR-5HAD and #IR-5EX with over 45′ of Infrared illumination.
