{"product_id":"the-sentry-eight-8mp-ahd-bullet-camera","title":"The Sentry Eight | 8MP AHD Bullet Camera with Full-Colour Night Vision","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-narrative\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnalogue CCTV was supposed to be dead, and it is not, for one practical reason: existing coax cabling works and replacing it costs more than the cameras. The Sentry Eight is built for that reality. It delivers 8 megapixels over standard BNC coax at AHD resolution, so a system installed years ago can move from 2MP to 8MP by changing the camera rather than the wire in the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe imaging chain is the part that decides whether 8MP is real or interpolated. A Sony CCD sensor at 1\/3 inch with a 3.6mm lens produces a genuine 3840 by 2160 style frame detail level with a 90-degree viewing angle, which is wide enough to cover a driveway or a shopfront corner without the fisheye distortion of a 2.8mm lens. H.265 compression halves the bitrate against H.264 at equivalent quality, which is what lets an older recorder keep its retention window at the higher resolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNight performance uses full-colour rather than infrared-only, with an IR-cut filter that switches automatically at dusk. That combination gives colour identification under low light, which matters because a colour image of a face or a vehicle is worth more than a monochrome silhouette. Face detection, face recording and playback are handled in the camera, so the recorder does not need to be capable of analytics itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing is metal and rated IP66, mounted as a bullet on wall or soffit with the cable exiting through the base. It is a closed-system camera, which means it expects a DVR rather than an app, and it comes with a three-year warranty, which is longer than the one-year norm for this class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eResolution only matters if the recorder can keep it and the lens can frame it.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrue 8MP AHD\u003c\/strong\u003e Full 8 megapixel detail over coax BNC, an upgrade path for existing analogue systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSony CCD sensor\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/3-inch sensor with a 3.6mm lens for genuine detail rather than upscaled interpolation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull-colour night vision\u003c\/strong\u003e IR-cut filter switches automatically at dusk so night footage stays in colour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eH.265 compression\u003c\/strong\u003e Roughly half the bitrate of H.264, which preserves retention at higher resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e90-degree viewing angle\u003c\/strong\u003e Wide enough for a driveway or shopfront without the distortion of an ultra-wide lens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOn-camera face detection\u003c\/strong\u003e Face recording and playback handled in the camera, so the DVR needs no analytics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal IP66 housing\u003c\/strong\u003e Weatherproof bullet body for indoor and outdoor mounting in rain and dust.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree-year warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e Longer than the one-year cover typical of this class of camera.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style:none;padding:0;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResolution:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8.0 megapixels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sony CCD, 1\/3 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.6mm fixed, 90 degree viewing angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSignal:\u003c\/strong\u003e AHD over BNC coax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompression:\u003c\/strong\u003e H.265\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNight vision:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full colour with automatic IR-cut filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnalytics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Face detection, face recording, face playback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metal bullet, IP66 weatherproof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlarm action:\u003c\/strong\u003e Email photo on human or motion detection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemote view:\u003c\/strong\u003e Android, iOS, Windows, VMS over the DVR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding:8px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wall or soffit mount, cable through base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-applications\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere It Belongs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the camera for a shop, a yard, a small warehouse or a home perimeter where coax is already in place and a full IP refit is not justified.
