Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
---|---|---|---|
2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).
Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Description
Loaded with cutting-edge technology, the latest generation HIKMICRO Habrok Pro thermal binoculars offer the detection power of high resolution thermal alongside the observation power of the latest 4K day & night camera – all in a compact and ergonomic binocular chassis.
Built around HIKMICRO’s incredible new 640x512px, Sub 15mK NETD sensor, the Habrok Pro redefines what is possible from a thermal binocular. The high resolution sensor delivers an unbelievably crisp and detailed image at base mag while also allowing you to use the digital magnification to zoom in without pixilation. This industry leading thermal sensor provides the detail you need to positively locate and identify animals, people or birds while also giving you a clear view of the surroundings and background. This highly accurate thermal sensor will also continue to deliver in the most challenging conditions, such as rain and fog.
With the press of the button the Habrok switches to its 4K Day & Night camera to deliver a bright, vibrant, full colour image in daylight that allows you to view your surroundings in mind blowing detail. As twilight sets in and the ambient light drops the Habrok continues to shine with unparalleled light gathering capacity. The built in IR torch will activate in total darkness and the camera continues to deliver a high resolution, black and white image. New for the Habrok Pro is image stabilisation to minimise hand shake when observing at high magnification.
The eyepieces offer a wide and immersive viewing experience of the massive OLED display. You can quickly and easily adjust the interpupillary distance and focus so each eyepiece perfectly matches your eyes. The soft rubber eyecups can be folded back which makes it easy for glasses wearers and comfortable for extended periods of use.
The removable battery pack will power the Habrok Pro for up to 9 hours and there are two batteries supplied in the box so you can be confident that you will never be caught without power. The Habrok Pro is also supplied with HIKMICRO’s new binocular harness which makes the perfect way to carry your binoculars on adventures or a secure way to store them when not in use.
The Habrok Pro will also record and playback thermal and optical images, video and audio in its internal memory, and share it to nearby mobile devices via the dedicated HIKMICRO Sight App. Also on-board is 1000m laser range-finding, GPS and digital compass. The Habrok Pro is HIKMICRO’s new flagship device for many diverse applications, with unrivalled image detail, thermal sensitivity, performance and features.
