Hanwha QNF-8010B 6MP Fisheye Panoramic Camera
The Hanwha QNF-8010B is a 6MP indoor fisheye camera engineered for 360° panoramic surveillance in a single compact device. Built around a 1.14mm fisheye lens and 1/1.8" CMOS sensor, the QNF-8010B delivers native 2048×2048 resolution at 30fps with onboard dewarping capabilities. This eliminates the need for external processing, allowing operators to select from original fisheye, single panorama, double panorama, or quad view outputs in real time. IP42-rated and PoE powered, it is purpose-built for retail environments, enterprise facilities, and multi-zone monitoring applications where wide-angle coverage and flexible viewing modes are critical.
Key Features
- 6MP 1/1.8" CMOS sensor with 2048×2048 native resolution at 30fps
- 1.14mm fixed fisheye lens providing 187° field of view across horizontal, vertical, and diagonal planes
- Onboard dewarping engine with four output modes: original fisheye, single panorama, double panorama, quad view
- 120dB wide dynamic range (WDR) for high-contrast indoor environments
- Triple codec support: H.265, H.264, and MJPEG with WiseStream II bandwidth optimization
- Advanced analytics: people counting, heatmap generation, motion detection, defocus and tampering detection
- Digital noise reduction (SSNR V) and automatic day/night switching
- PoE powered (IEEE 802.3af Class 3) with maximum 6.4W, typical 4.6W consumption
- IP42 environmental rating for protected indoor installations
- MicroSD/SDHC/SDxC card slot supporting up to 256GB edge storage
- Lens rotation and analog video output (CVBS) for installation flexibility
- Minimum object distance: 0.3 meters; color minimum illumination: 0.2 lux @ F2.5, 1/30sec
Technical Highlights
The QNF-8010B's onboard dewarping eliminates server-side processing overhead, making it ideal for bandwidth-constrained or edge-computing deployments. The 120dB WDR handles mixed lighting conditions—skylights, storefronts, and backlit zones—without image degradation. WiseStream II compression reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by up to 80% compared to standard H.264, a critical advantage in high-density camera installations. The 0.3-meter minimum focus distance supports close-range detail capture, essential for retail loss prevention and facility security.
Applications
The QNF-8010B excels in retail environments (checkout areas, stockrooms), office lobbies, parking garages, warehouse monitoring, and any indoor space requiring comprehensive 360° coverage without multiple camera installations. People counting and heatmap analytics provide occupancy insights and customer traffic patterns. Its compact form factor and low power consumption make it suitable for retrofits and budget-conscious multi-camera deployments.
The QNF-8010B addresses a gap between traditional fixed cameras and complex multi-sensor panoramic systems. Its onboard dewarping and flexible output modes deliver operational flexibility without edge server complexity. The 187° field of view captures nearly full hemispheric coverage, though note that blind spots may exist directly above or below the camera depending on mounting orientation.
WiseStream II codec efficiency is essential for organizations managing large camera fleets; bandwidth savings compound across deployments. People counting and heatmap analytics are software-based and perform best in controlled indoor lighting; performance may vary in extreme backlit conditions despite the 120dB WDR. The IP42 rating limits outdoor exposure, making this strictly an indoor solution.
For integrators, the MicroSD edge storage slot and CVBS output provide valuable fallback options in network disruption scenarios. This camera represents strong value for single-device panoramic coverage in cost-sensitive enterprise and retail accounts.
