Bring Rich Colors to the Night

Advanced Colour Night Vision, Even in Total Darkness
The NightChroma™ NC500 Outdoor PoE Camera delivers ultra-clear 3K QHD colour video, even in complete darkness. Thanks to its f/1.0 super aperture lens, advanced back-illuminated sensor, and high-precision image processor, you get vivid, high-contrast footage at any hour.
Its built-in soft lighting enables reliable full-colour recording in 0 lux conditions, making it ideal for low-light driveways, entrances, and yards.

AI Motion Detection That Only Alerts When It Should
Powered by AI-based person and vehicle detection, the NC500 filters out unnecessary motion triggers from animals, rain, or tree branches. With over 99% accuracy, you’ll only get alerts that truly matter.
This smart feature makes the camera perfect for home entrances, driveways, and business storefronts where precision security monitoring is essential.

Audio Recording for Greater Situational Awareness
With a built-in noise-filtering microphone, the NC500 captures clear sound from up to 6 metres away, helping you hear what’s happening — not just see it. This audio-enabled outdoor camera adds an extra level of awareness for entrances, gates, or backyard areas.
Need privacy? Simply disable the audio function to stay compliant with local surveillance regulations.

High-Efficiency Video with H.265+ Compression
The NC500 uses H.265+ video encoding to reduce file sizes and bandwidth usage without compromising on its crisp 3K QHD resolution. This means smoother remote viewing and longer local storage — perfect for standalone camera setups.
With full support for H.265+/H.265/H.264+/H.264 formats, it offers seamless integration with older NVRs and strong encryption for secure data handling.

Built to Withstand New Zealand’s Toughest Weather
With its IP67 weatherproof rating, the NC500 is engineered to perform in extreme conditions — from icy frost to heavy coastal rain. Operating reliably between -30°C and 60°C, this rugged outdoor security camera offers year-round protection in any environment.
Its aerospace-grade aluminium housing resists corrosion, impacts, and salt air — making it ideal for coastal homes, farms, or exposed building exteriors.
