Day Night Color Camera

Dual Mode Pinhole Board Camera Sees Great in the Light and the Dark

This is a dual-mode day night indoor pinhole board camera offered in flat and conical lens. 480 lines resolution and automatically switching between a very sharp crystal-clear color picture in normal lighting to a black and white picture when it gets dark. You will not find another color board camera that will be this high-quality color in daylight and automatically switches to a super low lux of  .001 black and white picture in the dark. This camera has a 1/3 inch Sony Super HAD CCD with an IR cut filter to allow for the low lux ability and infrared compatibility.

Infrared Sensitive Camera

It is quite rare to have a pinhole board camera sensitive to infrared illumination. This pinhole board camera is able to see 850nm infrared. When someone walks into the room it will still be pitch black, but the camera will see it all lit up. Click here to look at our 850nm infrared illuminators.

Installation and Recording

All of our board cameras are plug and play ready. This means there is already a short wire connected to the camera which simply plugs into the included power supply for power and into your TV or VCR to view and/or record.

The Super Conical lens option allows for the absolute smallest hole for installation. It does not matter whether you are building your own hidden camera, putting this in drywall or ceiling tile, all that has to be exposed is just the tip of the lens. The flat lens is a good choice if you need the overall camera dimensions to be thin or if you are putting the camera behind something very thin, like cloth.

This camera can operate using the included AC power supply or from any of our battery packs if you are requiring short-term surveillance without a wall outlet nearby for power.

Wireless Option

This camera can easily transform into a wireless covert camera by connecting it to a transmitter. The wireless option on this page includes the transmitter as well as the receiver. The transmitter also operates on 12 volts just like the camera, so you can power both from batteries if you must.

Available In Conical Or Flat Lens

What is the difference between a flat lens and conical lens? The picture is the same regardless whether you select a flat pinhole lens or conical pinhole lens. There is no distortion with either. The difference lies in the installation. Most people find it easier to install a conical lens in drywall or ceiling tile. The super conical lens  almost comes to a point and requires less of a hole in the surface area of drywall or ceiling tile. By the same token, the flat lens is better when using it in something thin, such as a shirt, blouse, or painting. Both cameras only need a very small hole to see. The closer the pinhole lens is to the exterior surface of the material, the wider the field of view will be.
