Product Information

Axis Q1952-E

The Axis Q1952-E Thermal Camera (SKU: AXIS-Q1952-E) delivers high-quality thermal video 24/7, regardless of lighting, weather, or environmental challenges. Designed for perimeter protection and long-range detection, it features a VGA 640x480 thermal resolution, providing excellent wide-area coverage—capturing events over large spaces with a single device. With three available lens options (10 mm, 19 mm, and 35 mm), it offers flexible detection configurations tailored to a variety of surveillance needs.

Equipped with Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS), the Q1952-E ensures stable, reliable video even in windy or vibration-prone environments. Thermal palettes enhance scene interpretation by visually differentiating heat sources that emit similar levels of thermal energy. Additionally, because thermal imaging inherently supports privacy compliance, the Q1952-E is a smart choice for sensitive sites where traditional visual cameras may not be appropriate.
