It may be "the best" but it is not a reasonable solution for a surveillance camera. You can easily get better coverage with a few strategically placed large sensor cameras. You need to compare this camera to those not to an iphone that is inferior to even much older ip cameras in low light.Exact reason I picked this camera, SNC-VB770 is the best in security camera seems to be on the planet when it comes to low light.
Here is a very in depth review on this camera
Sony SNC-VB770 Camera Review: Let There Be Light
Sony’s SNC-VB770 is a low light weapon that combines high resolution and stratospheric ISO levels to offer unsupported low light performance that’s superior to any other commercially available CCTV…securityelectronicsandnetworks.com
Now I am not sure if I am confused if you were referring to any other camera or no you said 2.5k for the camera. I just wanted to correct there if you are talking about this camera in particular it is around 8k not 2.5k.
Also the lens itself even a decent cheap one is around 1k
and if you go with Sony enclosure that is about 1.3k
So once if you add up all three to make this work even with just an decent lens it is about 10G +
