The package starts off with an ulta high resolution 520 line Sony Super HAD 1/3" digital zoom color bullet camera. Simply put, there is NO higher resolution or more feature packed bullet camera available on the market today. With 520 lines of resolution, the camera exceeds the resolution of DVD players to ensure a high quality, sharp picture even on big screen televisions.

Unlike other bullet camera packages on the market, this system is completely flexible and expandable. The lenses on the camera can be upgraded to give you a wider or narrower field of view. The camera itself can be digitally zoomed, panned, adjusted for brightness and even switched to day or night view (with optional remote).

We even offer optional wide angle or narrow field lenses to capture the action just the way you want to see it!

Accessories:

Deluxe Swivel Head Camera Mount:

This light weight camera mount allows you to precisely tilt and aim your bullet camera. Included are two quick change 2" extensions to position your camera for the best viewing angle posible. The mount must be screwed down for proper installation.

Adhesive Mounting Kit:

The adhesive mount allows you to attach the bullet camera to almost any surface including helmets, front grills, taillights etc. No drilling required! Includes 6 adhesive camera mounts and 12 nylon ties.

Plastic Camera Mounting Clips:

These lightweight mounting clips snap tightly onto the camera body and allow you to mount the camera to any surface where you can drill two small holes. The clips are reusable and hold the camera firmly. Mount the camera to your bike, motorcycle, airplane etc. Just imagine the possibilities!

Powered External Microphone:

The powered external microphone allows you to position the microphone anywhere you want. This is especially useful to avoid the annoying wind noise associated with hand held video cameras. Requires a 12 volt battery pack or DC power supply (sold seperately)

12 volt DC cigarette lighter power supply:

This power adapter allows you to power your camera and microphone off your cigarette adapter or cut off the end and hard wire into your electrical system.

Battery Pack

The battery pack uses 8 AA batteries to power your camera and microphone for up to 8 hours (batteries not included).

Safety Tether

Many sanctioning bodies require a secondary safety tether to prevent the camera from disloging from the vehicle should the primary mount fail. This 5 foot tether can be attached to a single hole drilled on your mount and then tethered through a strong part of the vehicle.

Mini bullet camera mounting plate:

This is a very small (2.5" width x 2.5" length) suction cup mounting plate that allows you to mount your camera in very small spaces for that unique camera perspective. Not for use outside of the vehicle. Use our larger suction cup mount (available in our catalog) for external mounting.

Digital Effects Remote:

This digital remote plugs into the camera and allows you to digitally pan back and forth, tilt up and down and zoom in up to 3X magnification! The camera itself will not move, only the video image will be affected. The remote also allows you to control brightness and lighting filters to adjust for day and night use. This allows you to get the picture quality you want regardless of lighting conditions. The remote also offers a cool negative inversion effect. No battery is required for the remote as it works off of the cameras power supply.

Optional Lenses:

If you want a wider or narrower field of view, we offer the following replacement lenses:

2.97mm lens - Approximately 127 degree field of view.
3.6mm lens - Standard lens included with the camera. Approximately 92 degree field of view.
4.0mm lens - Approximately 88 degree field of view.
6.0 mm lens - Approximately 78 degree field of view.
8.0 mm lens - Approximately 58 degree field of view.
12.0 mm lens - Approximately 28 degree field of view.

Replacement Lens Covers

Pick up a few replacements in case you accidentally break your lens cover recording some intense action!

RCA cables & adapaters:

To hook up your video camera to the bullet camera, you will likely need RCA cables and a Y splitter for stereo sound.

Suction Cups:

If you are creating your own suction cup mount, you will need some high quality suction cups. The small ones can be secured with machine screws (not included) while the medium and large ones come with studs and nuts. They are rated to hold the following weights.

Small : 1/2 lb each
Medium: 3 lbs each
Large: 7 lbs each

Remember to always build in an extra margin for safety and use a safety tether device to prevent the driver, passenger, spectators or other cars from damage and injury should the suction cups fail.

FAQ's

Q1: How do I know if my video recorder can hook up to the bullet camera and microphone?
A1: To record the audio and video from our camera package, you need a recording device that has RCA inputs for audio and video. Check your device's manual for more details.
Q2: How do I record stereo sound?
A2: The included powered microphone only has 1 RCA audio output. If you want stereo sound from the left and right speaker of your recording device, you will need to purchase an RCA Y splitter adapter.
Q3: What makes the Sony Super HAD 520 Line CCD Camera better than competitors?
A3: Most competitor cameras are only 380, 420 or 480 lines of resolution. The lower the number of lines of resolution, the worse the picture quality will be, especially on larger televisions. Competitors often use a cheap CCTV CMOS sensor. This kind of sensor is normally has 10 times less sensitivity then CCD sensor. The human eye can see object under 1 LUX illumination (full moon night ). CCD sensors normally will see better or as good as human eye in the range of 0.1 ~3 lux and are 3 to 10 times more sensitive then CMOS sensor. This boils down to a better picture in all lighting conditions. This Sony model is also unique that it allows for replacement of lens covers, lenses and the use of an optional remote that allows for zooming, panning, brightness adjustments etc. You will be blown away by the picture quality. This is one sophisticated camera!
