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.

The Hikvision DS-2CD2686G2-IZS is a 4K IP camera with a large 1/1.8" sensor and Darkfighter technology, providing a color image at illumination from 0.003 Lux. The camera is designed for sites with high requirements for detail and night surveillance: the 2.8–12 mm varifocal lens makes it possible to cover both a wide zone and a narrow surveillance corridor. IR illumination up to 60 m guarantees a high-quality picture even in the complete absence of external lighting.
Advantages
- Large 1/1.8" sensor: increased light sensitivity compared to standard sensors
- Sensitivity of 0.003 Lux in color and 0 Lux in IR mode: confident operation in complete darkness
- 4K resolution (3840×2160): detail that allows zooming in on areas of the frame many times if necessary
- IR illumination up to 60 m: an expanded night control zone
- 2.8–12 mm varifocal lens: flexibility of installation in different architectural conditions
- PoE and DC12V power: fast installation with a minimal cable run
Applications
- Sites with minimal lighting: underground parking, technical corridors
- Entrances and exits of guarded areas: capturing license plates at night
- Perimeter security: control of extended sections of fences
- Banks and jewelry stores: surveillance with a high level of detail
- Industrial enterprises: monitoring of production premises in different lighting modes
