See Every Detail — Day and Night
This Hikvision ColorVu camera uses a large 1/1.8" progressive scan CMOS sensor paired with an F1.0 super aperture lens. The result is vivid full-color video 24 hours a day — even in near-total darkness. Standard IR cameras switch to black-and-white at night, but ColorVu stays in color. You can identify clothing colors, vehicle paint, and facial features that would be missed by conventional cameras. This makes a real difference when reviewing footage for police reports or insurance claims.
Install Once, Adjust from Your Desk
The motorized varifocal lens (2.8 to 12 mm) lets you remotely adjust zoom and focus after the camera is mounted. No need to climb a ladder or physically touch the unit. Use the Hik-Connect app or your NVR interface to fine-tune the field of view from 103° wide angle to 53° telephoto. One camera covers multiple scenarios — wide area surveillance or focused detail on a doorway. This saves installation time and gives you flexibility as site needs change.
Built Tough for Outdoor Use
Rated IP67 for dust and water ingress, this dome camera handles rain, snow, and extreme temperatures without issue. The IK10 vandal-proof rating protects against physical impact — ideal for parking lots, warehouses, and public areas. With 130 dB True WDR, it handles harsh backlight conditions like direct sunlight or bright entryways. You get clear, usable footage in the toughest environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a varifocal and fixed lens camera?
A varifocal lens lets you adjust the zoom and focus remotely after installation. This means you can change the field of view without physically moving the camera. A fixed lens has a single, non-adjustable viewing angle. The varifocal gives you more flexibility during and after installation.
Is this camera suitable for outdoor use in rain or snow?
Yes. The camera has an IP67 weatherproof rating, meaning it is fully protected against dust and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. It is designed for outdoor installation in all weather conditions.
Can I use this camera with a non-Hikvision NVR?
Yes. The camera supports ONVIF (Profile S/G/T), so it works with most third-party NVRs that support the ONVIF standard. For full feature access — including ColorVu, smart motion detection, and remote zoom — we recommend pairing it with a Hikvision NVR.
Does this camera have a built-in microphone for audio recording?
This model has audio input and output terminals (audio I/O), which means you can connect an external microphone and speaker for two-way audio. It does not have a built-in microphone, but the audio interface gives you flexibility to add audio where needed.
What is the warranty on this Hikvision camera?
