Bought the module for only $40 along with a big aperture F1.0 M16 4mm lens
Lens mount has no IR-CUT, only with fixed IR filter, this module is intended to work in extreme low light environment without IR LED
SoC: SigmaStar SSC330KQ
CMOS: Sony IMX347, 4MP 1/1.8" pixel size 2.9*2.9um
RAM: SoC builtin 128MB
ROM: 16MB NOR
Lens: F1.0 4mm M16 mount
Max resolution is 2560*1440@30FPS, shutter speed 1/10000 - 1/10s, no manual gain control
WDR and HDR supported, however, the WDR switch is useless, making no difference. HDR picture is impressive when there's plenty light
Support ONVIF but only has profile S, which is enough for NVR recording
They surprisingly have a HTTP CGI API interface with well written document in both Chinese and English, which is very rare among the small Chinese camera companies. You can control all the settings via the CGI API
Another surprise is that you can view the live stream in Chrome without any plugin
I will compare its performance in extreme low light environment with the Hikvision IMX385 box camera I just tested yesterday.
Cameras are locked in my storage room with no window, the only light source is from my Sylonogy NAS, UPS and network switch status LED. It's almost totally dark, hardly anything visible with human eyes. I took a picture with my iPhone 12 Pro in auto mode
Let's start with 1/50s shutter speed in both color and B/W mode
It's good but not as good as the IMX385 camera, which has a 3.85*3.85um big pixel size.
Following is picture with 1/10s shutter speed, the IMX385 camera doesn't have a 1/10s option, so I choose 1/12s instead, gain 100%
Picture quality is much better than that with 1/50s shutter, same as IMX385. But 1/10 shutter speed will make any moving object like a ghost, 1/50 is the lowest useful shutter speed in real environment
