Axis PTZ dome cameras with Axis Sharpdome technology enable exceptional coverage of large areas – above as well as below the horizon – and great detail when zooming in. Like all cameras in the Q61 Series, the Axis Q6128-E supports electronic image stabilisation.

“Our AXIS Q61 PTZ dome cameras have seen great success thanks to their innovative design and high-end technical features and this latest addition offers the added benefit of 4K resolution,” said Erik Frännlid, Director of Product Management, Axis Communications. “There is a clear market need for ultra-high resolution PTZ cameras as they provide significantly more detail which is important for a whole range of usage scenarios, including open spaces, street junctions and squares.”

With quick and reliable installation features, the Axis Q6128-E will function reliably in temperatures ranging from -50°C to 50°C, has a built-in speed dry feature for sharp images even in rainy conditions, and automatic defog.

Its built-in video analytics functionality includes motion detection and advanced gatekeeper, allowing the camera to detect an object in a specified area and zoom in on it. With its open application programming interface, the camera also has substantial capacity for third-party intelligent video applications.

The Axis Q6128-E includes performance 4K (8 MP) video at a frame rate of 25/30 fps, a 12x optical zoom with autofocus, quick and precise panning of more than 700 degrees per second to allow tracking of fast moving objects.  The images are engineered to be distortion-free via a transparent dome cover and there is built-in protection against dust, strong water jets, rain, snow and sunlight.  It is also impact resistant to a rating of IK08 and incorporates shock detection with an automated alarm to prevent tampering and vandalism attempts.  It also includes an arctic temperature control feature.

The Axis Q6128-E PTZ dome camera is planned to be available in Q4, 2015.
