The Arm Electronics BCIR Outdoor IR Bullet Camera (3.6mm, 60' IR), with a 1/3" Sony Super HAD II CCD image sensor and 3.6mm fixed focal lens deliver clear images at a resolution up to 600 TVL. Designed for round-the-clock surveillance, the IR camera features IR LEDs that captures images up to 60' (18.2m). A minimum illumination of 0.001 lux makes the outdoor camera suitable for low-light surveillance. In addition, the bullet camera features Wide Dynamic Range that delivers clearly visible images in high-contrast light conditions.
Defined by its day & night function, the camera switches between color and B&W as per changes in ambient lighting, ensuring accurate color reproduction in daylight and enhanced B&W images at night. Using 3DNR (Digital Noise Reduction), the bullet camera digitally corrects any video noise that could cause blurring or distortion in the images by minimizing the signal-to-noise ratio penalties.
IP66-rated weatherproof, heavy-duty aluminum housing protects the Outdoor IR Bullet Camera against dust and water, and ensures uninterrupted surveillance in exposed and high-risk locations. Besides, integrated sunshield protects the camera from direct sunlight. The 3-axis cable management mount allows you to easily mount the camera on a wall or ceiling.

Comments about ARM Electronics BCIR Outdoor IR Bullet Camera (3.6mm, 60' IR):
I bought this camera along with 3 other models to test with a home security camera system for my personal residence. All 4 cameras were in the same price range and were supposed to be high resolution. This one was clearly the best of the 4. It was the only one that had decent dynamic range when dealing with bright sunlight and shadows and it produced the high resolution that it claimed. Night time use is another story. IR LEDs don't exactly create that Kodak moment you'd like to have, still it did ok and was comparable to the other models I tested. I'm keeping this one and returning the others.
