The Zavio B8520 is an IP bullet camera with a built-in LPR mode that is designed to operate in extreme outdoor weather conditions. The LPR mode (license plate recognition) of the camera can be enabled to capture plates from up to 40 feet away from the vehicles. This bullet camera features a motorized 3.6~10mm lens that can be remotely adjusted from the camera's interface. It records in an HD resolution of 2560 x 1920 at 30 frames per second or 1920 x 1080 at 60 frames per second. In addition, it records using the H.265 video compression to save as much as 50% bandwidth and storage when compared to H.264. The IP66 rated outdoor housing ensures that the vital components of the camera are fully protected from harsh weather conditions, dust, and humidity. It can withstand temperatures ranging from -58°F to 140°F. This is made possible by the built-in heater/blower assembly that automatically turns on and off when needed. The camera can be powered by either 12V-DC or POE 802.3AT (injector not included). For environments with high contrast lighting conditions, the WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) capability ensures that no image is too bright or dark to capture. WDR works by combining the brightest part of the image with the darkest part to create an image similar to that of the human eye. Built-in high powered infrared LEDs have an effective illumination range of up to 50 meters/150 feet and provide visibility in dark environments. The infrared LEDs on this camera use Adaptive IR Pro technology, which allows the LEDs to adjust their intensity to prevent the image from being overexposed. A few more features of the B8520 include (2) alarm inputs, (2) alarm outputs, a built-in Micro SD/SDHC/SDXC Card Slot, and two-way audio support for use with external audio devices. A 64 channel Windows recording software is included.

Very nice camera
I have had this camera for almost 3 years now, and have had no issues with it besides the normal firmware update now and then. I live on a very dark rural street and it catches nearly all license plates up to 50-60 mph. Zavio support was very helpful setting this camera up as there are some complex settings. I have their NVR also. Playback is very easy and has helped solve several neighborhood crimes with night view of plates. Daytime view is very clear with 5mp.
