Field of view and DORI distances
The angles come from the manufacturer’s documentation for this model. A level’s distance is how deep along the camera axis the required pixel density holds; in practice the result also depends on light, viewing angle and video compression. The values may differ from the DORI in the datasheet: manufacturers calculate it by their own method, here it strictly follows the IEC 62676-4 density thresholds.

Dahua IPC-HFW2841T-ZS is an outdoor dome IP camera with 8 MP resolution and a motorized varifocal lens. It is designed for sites where the viewing angle needs to be adjusted remotely after installation, without climbing up to the camera. A wide dynamic range of 120 dB and PoE power make installation convenient, while H.265+ ensures economical archive storage.
Advantages
- 8 MP resolution — high frame detail for subsequent identification of people and vehicles
- Motorized lens — angle and focus are adjusted remotely via software without physical access to the camera
- WDR 120 dB — the camera simultaneously renders dark and bright areas of the frame well, for example a building entrance against backlight
- H.265+ compression — maximizes disk space and network bandwidth savings without loss of quality
- PoE power — a single cable carries both data and power, which simplifies installation and reduces its cost
- IP67 protection rating — full dust protection and protection against water jets for reliable outdoor operation
Applications
- Shopping and business centers — monitoring entrances, lobbies and inner courtyards with the ability to change the viewing angle without dismounting
- Parking lots and open areas — long-range surveillance with license plate detail
- Perimeter security of enterprises — flexible adjustment of the surveillance zone after installation
- Educational institutions — monitoring areas with changing layouts
- Construction sites — monitoring of a changing work zone
