Product Features
Technical Overview
The FortiCamera CD51 captures video using a 1/2.8" CMOS sensor that produces 5-megapixel resolution imagery. This sensor technology enables efficient power consumption while maintaining high-quality HD video output. The camera records in H.265, H.264, and HEVC formats, offering flexible compression options to optimize storage and bandwidth usage.
A fixed 2.8mm lens with f/2.0 maximum aperture provides consistent focus across the camera's wide 118° diagonal field of view. Electronic image stabilization and digital noise reduction technologies work together to deliver stable, clear footage even in challenging lighting conditions. The camera includes a built-in microphone for audio capture alongside video recording.
