Frequently asked questions

• Q: What are the available focal lengths for the 5MP lens family, and is the SLA-5M7000Q interchangeable with other fixed lenses?
• A: The SLA-5M7000Q offers a 7.0mm fixed focal length with an F/1.6 aperture and 5MP imaging. The 5MP family includes selectable fixed lenses at 3.7mm, 4.6mm, and 7.0mm to suit different surveillance distances and scene coverage. Replacement with other fixed lenses within the same family is possible where the camera supports it and proper alignment is maintained.
• Q: How does the low-light performance of this lens benefit surveillance applications?
• A: With a 0.16 lux rating at F1.6, the SLA-5M7000Q captures clearer details in dim lighting, enabling color or monochrome imaging without excessive noise. This makes it suitable for entryways, corridors, and exterior areas with limited illumination.
• Q: Is this lens suitable for outdoor use?
• A: The lens is designed for surveillance environments and is compatible with weather- and camera-rated housings. For outdoor use, ensure the camera module and lens assembly are properly sealed and protected from environmental conditions.
• Q: What should I consider when choosing color vs. monochrome (B/W) versions?
• A: Color lenses deliver natural color detail in sufficient lighting, while B/W lenses can improve contrast and edge detail in low-light scenarios or when infrared illumination is used. Pick based on lighting conditions and the camera’s illumination strategy.
