At the same time, you can easily adjust the dimmable lighting via the app, ensuring better visibility, greater convenience and a sense of security in your outdoor area at all times.

A clever combination of lighting and security

The Outdoor Light Camera combines dimmable LED lighting and a high-resolution camera in a stylish housing. This saves space on the wall of your home and allows you to benefit from the seamless integration of the two functions. If the integrated motion detector detects movement, the light switches on automatically if desired, illuminating the outdoor area precisely where needed. This allows you to keep a close eye on paths, driveways and entrance areas, even in the dark.

Crystal-clear recording with flexible positioning

Thanks to the high-resolution 4-megapixel camera, you get exceptionally detailed images and can keep a reliable eye on important areas at all times. For optimum alignment, the lens can be swivelled horizontally by up to 120 degrees. The automatic day and night mode adjusts the recording quality to suit the lighting conditions at all times, ensuring clear outdoor vision around the clock.

Dimmable LED light perfectly adapted to your daily routine

With up to 1,800 lumen, the integrated LED light provides bright and uniform illumination all around your home. Using the app, you can adjust the brightness to suit your needs at any time – from a subtle ambient light to full-scale lighting for driveways or patios. You can also set up fixed time schedules or control the lighting conveniently via the app, so that the lighting adapts perfectly to your routine.

Smart notifications when activity is detected

If the Outdoor Light Camera detects movement, you immediately get a push notification on your smartphone and can react straight away. If required, the camera automatically tracks movements horizontally, ensuring that relevant areas remain clearly in view at all times.

Reliable protection in all weathers

The Outdoor Light Camera has been specially designed for year-round outdoor use. The robust housing with IP65 rating is designed for temperatures ranging from -20 to +50°C and provides reliable protection against rain and snow.

FAQs - Your questions, our answers

In our FAQs you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions - compact, easy to understand and always to the point. Find out everything you need to know to optimally control your smart home!

Can I export or save recordings?

Yes. Saved recordings can be read out and backed up or archived on other devices.

Do the cameras require an Internet connection?

Will I be notified when the camera detects movement?

Yes, all Homematic IP cameras automatically notify you of detected events via push message in the Homematic IP app. This allows you to react directly and open the live stream immediately if required.

Do I necessarily need a micro SD card for recording?
