Dive into the world of imaging with our latest article comparing the Night Stalker 4K and DS35 (2K) cameras! Discover how each resolution excels in clarity and detail capture, and see which one truly stands out in various scenarios. Whether you're a photography enthusiast or a seasoned pro, understanding the differences between these sensors is key to elevating your visuals.

Resolutions

1. Definition

Resolution refers to the number of pixels in an image or display, typically expressed as width x height. It directly impacts image clarity and detail. Higher resolution means more pixels, resulting in finer and more detailed images.

2. Definitions of 2K and 4K Resolution

· 2K Resolution: Around 2,000 horizontal pixels, typically referring to 1920x1080, 2048x1080 (rarely used), or 2560x1440.

· 4K Resolution: Around 4,000 horizontal pixels, specifically 3840x2160, delivering higher clarity and richer details.

Note: The 2K and 4K designations for sensors, displays, photos, and videos all refer to pixel count.

Pixel Size

1. Definition

Pixel size refers to the physical size of a single pixel in an image sensor, typically measured in micrometers (μm). It affects the sensor's light sensitivity and image quality.
