See Every Detail — Day and Night
This 8MP ColorVu turret camera uses a 1/1.8" progressive scan CMOS sensor paired with an F1.0 super aperture to deliver full-color video 24/7. Even in near-total darkness, you get vivid color footage — not the grainy black-and-white images standard IR cameras produce. With 3840 × 2160 resolution, you capture four times more detail than 1080p, making it easy to identify faces, license plates, and clothing colors.
Smart Deterrence That Works
The Active Deterrence feature combines a built-in strobe light and audio alarm that automatically activate when motion is detected. This scares off intruders before they cause trouble. Combined with AcuSense smart detection, the camera only triggers on people and vehicles — so you don't get false alarms from passing cars or blowing leaves. You can also use two-way audio to speak directly through the camera, giving delivery instructions or warning off unwanted visitors.
Built Tough for Any Weather
Rated IP67, this camera survives rain, dust, snow, and extreme temperatures. The fixed 2.8 mm lens provides a 108.8° horizontal field of view — wide enough to cover entryways, driveways, and backyards with a single camera. It supports H.265+ compression to save bandwidth and storage space, and you can add up to 512GB of local microSD storage for weeks of continuous recording without a separate NVR.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this camera in an apartment building?
Yes. This camera is a great choice for cameras in apartment settings. Its compact turret design, two-way audio, and microSD storage make it ideal for monitoring hallways, entryways, or parking areas without needing a full NVR system.
Does this camera work as an outdoor light camera?
Absolutely. The Smart Hybrid Light technology automatically switches between IR and warm white light based on the scene. Most of the time it uses invisible IR to avoid light pollution, but when motion is detected, it switches to white light for full-color deterrence — making it a perfect outdoor light camera.

Yes. The camera has a built-in microSD slot that supports up to 512GB. This makes it a reliable sd card surveillance camera option for local recording without a separate NVR or cloud subscription.

Yes. With ColorVu technology, F1.0 aperture, and a 1/1.8" sensor, it captures full-color video even in near-total darkness. The 130dB True WDR handles bright headlights and direct sunlight, so you get clear footage day and night.

Yes. It has a built-in microphone and speaker for two-way audio. You can talk to visitors, delivery drivers, or warn intruders directly through the Hik-Connect app on your phone.
How does the Active Deterrence feature work?
