I've been waiting for this a long time. We have several 4mp Colorvus. Now it's time for an upgrade. Thanks for this review!
Thanks Ron and happy new year 😊
Cheers for the review mate, just watched this and the colorvu 2 vs dark fighter vid you did a little while back and they are without a doubt the best review of these cameras.
Welcome back hope your Christmas and new year was good can not wait to see what this year brings to the industry
Thanks john and same to you , me to can’t wait 😊
Thank you very much for your time and help 😊
Thanks for the information about H.265+ I had it enabled.
Hi Dave and thanks for another great review.
thanks for watching!
Thanks for the excellent detailed video.
Bloody good show. Vlog of the year already 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thanks! Happy New Year to you 😊
Happy New Year David, awesome video and demo
Thank you and same to you , take care mate 😊
Thanks , good testing and examples
Thank you 😀
I was waiting for this video. I have the original ColorVu cameras and wanted to see what the 4K model was like.
Thanks, we hope you liked it
2021 - DVS Nice Review, For 8MP Color Vu camera
Thanks and Happy New year
Great video! I see this video was from 2021.
What's the best 4K 8MP night Vision camera in 2023?
Thanks for all your informative videos. I wish reviewers would show someone jogging/running at night in low light to see how clear the face looks. Most cameras have blurring and ghosting when a person is jogging or running, next to impossible to identify a face.
Mark die you get an answer on this. Acusense colorvu line seems all about night colour quality, and yes its good BUT the purpose of a cctv is to IDENTIFY tue intruder isnt it? Gen 1 is pretty shit about this, lots of blur. Is gen2 any better?
@@bashaz8559 I'm not aware of any home security cams that do great at night to identify a face when a person is moving quickly.
Great review. Thank you. What junction box is compatible with DS-2CD2T87G2-L?
Nice, thanks. Can you do exactly the same with a 8MP ‘powered by Darkfighter Technology’ camera please.
I noticed when you were switching between the scene settings that the shutter speeds seem rather slow - 1/12 in normal and 1/6 in low illumination. While this shouldn't be an issue if a person detected is stood reasonably still, at those speeds isn't a person walking across the frame or towards a camera at a normal pace going to smear up a bit, making identification tricky?
Can't wait for the turret to be available, that's going to be a game changer.
do you mind me asking why you like the turret better? im asking because im about to put up cameras in my house id like to know pros and cons. my installer told me the bullet camera can be moved out of position... is there not a way to secure the bullet camera so it can not be moved ?
@@cryptoniansavage6643 because of the shape and pivoting mount, they can be manipulated by someone wanting to redirect it's view. Turrets are screwed down in the position you want it pointed and can't be moved without first removing the camera from the surface of the building. The turret is also difficult, if not impossible to get a cord or rope tasseled around it to pull it down, if out of reach.
@@cryptoniansavage6643 I've seen a comment on other vid "I don't like bullet cameras cause the birds sh*t on them"
I guess it depends on the surface shape tbh, but I would still go for the bullet because ( I think ) it has a psychological advantage over the dome one incase an invader saw it... + it looks better :P
Very informative videos. Would love to see your review of the Hikvision AX Pro alarm systems and how they integrate with the cameras & NVRs
Hi and thanks, on our channel there is a couple of AX Pro alarm vidoes also 😊
@@DVSLTD hi. Thanks for replying. It would be great if you could do a video showing how the AX Pro alarm system works when connected to a Hikvision NVR. I understand that if there is an alarm trigger, the Hik connect app can also display video feed from four Hikvision cams which captured footage at the same time as the alarm trigger. Would love to see in action 😊
@@DVSLTD do you have any plans to compare the AX Pro to the Ajax systems?
@@samosa111 Thanks we will take a look
@@samosa111 Sadly not as we don’t sell AJAX 😊
Happy New Year. Could you show us a live digital zoom comparison of the sign in the distance with both the 8MP and a 4MP then could you also show us the 8MP on a playback after 23:00 at night? Cheers
Hi , I can plan to do that, 😊
@@DVSLTD that would be great thanks
Nice reviews,What app does anspo ASP-8104-200DL use?am stuck.
21:07 to 21:12 Thanks for reminding me.. I need some more mince..... but great video.
I’d like to see how this camera does with faster movement.
Sorry, one off topic question, how do I delete any particular event aka recording. For example I will need to delete recordings for particular hours, or even days. I don't want to format the hard drive completely. I tried to find this option without any success and it's really shocking that it's not even mentioned anywhere in the manual.
Hi, can you make a video based on, WHY CHOOSE A PRO TRAINED CCTV INSTALLER,
Pro install vs kits , Hikvision vs unknown brands, Why choose hikvision.
When is Hikvision 8mp turret with lights be available in U.S. ?
Great in depth video !
Couple more question if you don't mind,
Does it have a mechanical/motorized zoom or is it digital only ?
And is there any cams which may be better or compete with it that you know of ?
Finally, I'll soon install my first camera network, do you recommend it for a beginner or meh ?
actually these models are all fixed lens but there are now new models not in the video that have the motorised zoom function and we will video these separately once they come into stock , and you can use these as a beginner of course , there not technically demanding
@@DVSLTD Alright then. Thanks for your help !
These are amazing cameras. I’ll be ordering these over the dark fighter ones. All the options you amend on screen are they subject to what type of DVR you are using ? Do different DVR’s give you more options if that makes sense. Thanks
The options you see are in the webpages on the camera's themselves.
Thanks, very helpful video. What model is the exact same specs as this in a Turrent style cam?
Thanks, the turret is likely to be Q2 due to housing is to small to accommodate the current sensor , will keep everyone updated
Has the 8MP turrent been released, if so what is the model number please. Thanks
Good job this ds-2cd2087G2 4k 8mp full colorvu has also audio recording? Thank you
if you use the -LU model it has the in-built mic yes 😊
Fantastic, this is what we’ve been waiting. Any signs of this being available in the Turrets?
Thanks mate, Turrets maybe Q2 due to size of chip / aperture the current housing is a little small
@@DVSLTD Make sure you put me some to one side when they come in 😁
@@DVSLTD any updates when there will be 8mp turret style camera from Hikvision? Dahua already has a 8mp turret camera
Turrets are out :)
Does the camera auto-zoom “in” when you are standing farther away?
If so, how far back can the camera zoom your face for identification?
Can you hold a car tag at your chest and stand at 10, 20,30,40 feet intervals for the camera to identify?
these models are static fixed lens so don’t have the ability to have the auto zoom function , not even the digital zoom can have this function at the moment
would IR Illuminators help these cameras in color mode if it is pitch black outside or should I use white led lighting to help
use whitelight if needed , IR wont give any real benefit 😊
I wonder if you can show how bright the cameralight is. Will it disturb neigbhors or is it like with regular cameras just a almost invisible red light surrounding the lens? How bright is the supplememt light at 100% or 50%? I know it is diificult to show, but important for me to know
I do show it inside the video , personally I don’t feel it would disturb the neighbours as it’s a warm light and not as bright as a flood light would be
Love the video. Can it be connected on a Synology NAS ?
yes that should not be an issue 😊
Will this camera work on DS-7616NXI-12/16/P/S? I need 4 cameras and am thinking to get two of these at the front and two other acusense line like PCI-B18Z2S, or , DS2CD3686G2T-IZS? Wondering if varifocal will be helpful as well.
it will work on that NVR , varifocal Vs fixed lens is a matter of application , most users prefer the fixed lens but there is always a use for the varifocal model , but we sell more fixed lens Vs Varifocal
i would like to buy two Hikvision DS2CD2183G2 IS and DS2CD2083G2 IU. Both are 4k. Please, what do you think? Are they better or worse than the one in the video?
Hello and thank you for all the value information from your review. i have one question please. I have installed the same camera for a client and I'm trying to adjust the camera settings remotely using Hik-Connect account. i can access the NVR setting but when I chose the Image setting I'm only able to adjust the brightness, contrast and saturation. I can't see the other settings like backlight settings.
I don't have a physical access to the NVR but because it's in a different city.
Please let me know if you have any idea on how I can get full access for the camera settings.
Thank you
thanks for this kind comment , sadly if you are using HIK-Connect a lot of image settings past the basic ones are indeed inside the camera, could the customer provide the teamviewer or such on a local PC on that site, you can then login to the NVR and then the camera using virtual host function and then adjust as needed, it would save a lot of time 😊
@@DVSLTD Thank you for your reply. I hope one day Hikvision will fix this problem.
My problem is there is no one will be onsite at night and that's when i need to adjust the settings for the camera.
Do you know if IP ColourVu 8MP Turret camera when it is available in Q2 later this year will be compatible with DS-7604NI-K1/4P and DS-7608NI-K2/8P NVRs?
yes if released it will be compatible
All Amazing test video, whatched a lot, very usefull for me..
Im better using 8mb colorvue and superwide lenses
When would you choose the 8MP over the 4MP? Will the 4MP be able to produce even more clear pictures at night since the pixels should be twice as big?
Think I just found the answer to my question, it appears that the sensor in the 8MP version is a lot bigger (1/1.2") then the one in the 4MP version (1/1.8") which probably results in the same amount of light entering the sensor...?
a lot more are now choosing 8MP as the price Gap is closing, and you get double the effective MP as you say , some still like a basic setup and save the cost but if you can squeeze it out then 8MP is my choice now 😊
Hello, good afternoon. I wanted to ask you if Hikvision cameras can create profiles to be used during the day and another profile to be used at night with different settings. Thank you!
Yes we have the schedule scene setting in most cameras now 😊
Which NVR will support 4 or 8 of these cameras? Does it have audio or alarm output interface?
you can use the K or I series Range and they will be supported , the -LU model has built in Mic but they don’t have audio out function on the cameras yet sorry
Will the 4k turret cameras ever record at higher frame rates or is 20fps the limit? Any info on when the new turrets will be available?
The new IP ones have up to 25fps
Can you do all of this configuration of changing the lighting on the phone? or do you need a computer?
you need a laptop really for the web configuration
Hello can you suggest the right exposure setting for Hikvision 4 MP Colorvu IPC in night conditions? Also pls suggest would WDR in On position help to enhance the night vision. An early reply highly appreciated, Thanks in advance.
the default exposure setting on the colorvu is already set to the optimum 1/12 , you can make it 1/25 which still performs well but can loose some of the brightness , but reduce some motion blur effects of fast moving objects, again WDR could be used at that setting of 1/25 and it does lighten the image but I don’t like the effect personally of the WDR being enabled for night time use
@@DVSLTD Sir thank you very much for your valuable reply. You want me to use the WDR in day time only? Also pls help me with any settings that can improve and enhance the night vision.
Sir what is NVR USE THIS 8 MP HIKVISION CAMERA PLZ REPLY MODEL NVR

that’s US model , but we have done AcuSense Review already different part code , same tech th-cam.com/video/e_W8RrhZqtw/w-d-xo.html this video also covers light and sound turret
Do you sell to the U.S. If not where can these be sold at? Great review by the way! 😎👌

@@DVSLTD Thanks! Desicions, Desicions..Which one to get? The 4K with Acusense or 4K with ColorVU...🤔🤷🏻♂️
Correction you do say in video it has Acusense technology! 🤘😎
Do you know if the turret model will have a microphone? Audio is extremely important to me.
the -LU model has the in-built mic yes 😊
@@DVSLTD Thanks
Hi can we see the review of the new tracking hik ptz with light and small bullet camera please .. it was on your insta before Xmas
Yes its being fitted today actually and we will review next week or week after 😊
@@DVSLTD great stuff thank you
@@DVSLTD I’m desperate to buy the ptz but can’t order until it’s reviewed .. pretty please
Hi, wich is better at night colorvu 8mp or dark fighter 8mp?
if you have supplement light in area then colorvu or want to use the white light on camera, if very dark then Darkfighter with IR
would you be able to show this with recording passing vehicles at night?
Sure I will try
any chance the 8mp colorvu will come in Dome style? The crims around my area have previously wrenched a bullet camera out of my eaves in the past as it was easy to get a handle on.
We are working on a 8MP Turret now yes 😊
@@DVSLTD hi, do you have a date when the 8mp turret is availed to order? Looking for accusense and active alarm
@@camstar4460 chasing now as we also want it 😊
@@DVSLTD any word on the 8mp turrets?
Price
once the bullet is installed... can someone just walk up to it and just move the camera making me lose the shot that i was looking at ? or is there a way of setting them up where a person cant move the camera i.e it stays locked in place .... i know i can avoid this with the turret camera yet they have not come out with 8mp colorvu in that form yet :(
the bullet is installed and setup you can tighten the bracket fixing and it will prevent someone moving it yes 😊
@@DVSLTD thank you brother for the info ✊🏼
Contractor said he didn't recommend bullets for that reason .... It's nice to know it has a fix.... Maybe he was just trying to sell what ever he had on hand. I appreciate the reply thank you.
The contractor was most likely referring to vandals. Bullets are easier to force off location or even pull off the wall, as they are easily tasseled with a rope or cable if too high to reach and even easier if within reach. Domes and turrets have a rounded profile so a rope will simply fall off and the vandals won't be able to get leverage.
I installed this model yesterday and the image quality at night is just amazing! It would be 'nifty' if we can turn on the LED's when motion is detected.. Now it only has manual mode or auto depending on the clarity but it would be awesome if we can control the LED's as a motion linkage.. Keep on dreaming?
Thanks for the feeeback , the firmware to do this function should be released shortly
@@DVSLTD Great! Thanks for the info! Also thanks for the very well performed & complete review!
@@koen889 Thank you greatly 😊
@@DVSLTD It's upgrade time! New G3 firmware has been released (5.5.160). No release notes, I just upgraded one of my G2 ColorVu's and yes, control of white light through motion detection is added! Will test this feature tonight. When setting motion detection in the NVR, the option white light is not (yet) available, don't know if the NVR needs a firmware update as well to include this new feature and push the setting to the camera.
@@koen889 that great and I hope you like it , the NVR doesn’t have it yet but have been told its being looked at , let us know how you get on 😊
I‘ve ordered the 4mm version - very curious how the picture is going to be. 6mm version has 7 weeks estimated delivery over here in germany 🙄
image will be good , 6mm we don’t stock here either in UK due to not very popular 😊
Whats you thoughts after buying? Good setup? Why not a reolink system?
@@rainer6367 The picture quality at night is simply stunning. I use the 6mm version for some detailed shots. You can't get any better for that price imho. The webinterface from the NVR lacks smart search, which I find somewhat annoying.. hope it findes its way back someday.
@@magicmaui77 Thank you! Will consider to buy and will make some research for good home security cams.
Guys, do you do a WiFi camera that does not need to be connected via cat cable ?
We sell EZVIZ which do wifi models.
I didn’t see the option of switching led lights by event (for example line crossing or intrusion) . I have 2 colorvus installed on my front of my house and they are looks more “serious “ if someone walking at night (crossing the lines) and two cameras turns their lights on after each other. I had to hunt after one older firmware which is supports this function. I’ll be very sad if they not supporting this function on these new cameras coz I’ll not change them
Awesome! Been trying to set the same function on my colourvu cameras. What firmware release did this work on?
Hi , the firmware that supports this will be released shortly but from speaking to HQ it’s just the newer G2 platform that will support it
@@avnishparkash7792 V5.6.2 build 200407
You will find the setting with thiis firmware at Sytem Settings/External Device and bottom line " Triggered By Event" and there is field where u can put how long you want the light stay on (in sec) after event triggered it. Dont forget to set the correct time (darkness) at the Start/End Time field.
At the "Smart event" and "Basic Event" section you will find under "Linkage methode" "Flashing Alarm" option
that is you need to enable for any of your event you want to lights come on
@@DVSLTD Good. But its a bit disgusting to remove functions from the firmware to push people to upgrade for a newer (more expensive) product. It was worked (and still working) in G1 series so I dont see any other reason why Hik removed it.
Like doorbell, which was able to pass motion event to the NVR but stopped working after I upgraded NVR to V4 firmware.
@@szegfusanya we have never had that function in the UK , unless it was a specific function of the G1 in your region I cant comment , they are not making you buy a G2 , if you think it did work and no doesn’t you can talk to HIK to ask them to add it back in 😊
wonder when available in U.S.A. market
I don’t think it will be long
Harganya sampai berapa??
Hi can I used this inside home is well?
Yes of course 😊
Hi - can this be viewed also on phones?
Yes via HIK-Connect App
What's the difference between gen 1 and gen 2
About £50 😂 I have a G1 4mp and I’m so very impressed. It should be called ColorMagic ⭐️ . The G2 has additional features to reduce nuisance triggering 😊
Gen 2 has improved hardware , it has AcuSense included and now has 8MP range 😊
Which Hikvision recorder can handle 6 IP cam 8MP 15/10frames/s ?
the K range can but I would look to use the DS-7608NI-I2 personally

@@DVSLTD 😁🤣
In another Review of ColorVu Cameras I just heard the following statement:
"The lower the resolution the easier it is to fill up the image sensor with light"
So the 2MP would do better in very low light situations then the 4MP and the 8MP cameras...
( th-cam.com/video/NGHDrEnEZWA/w-d-xo.html )
Is that correct in your opinion? Can one see/feel the difference? Maybe worth a test in a future video...? ;)
Yes. For a given physical size of the sensor, lower MP will always equal better low light performance. Most Hik cams have a sensor that is usually 1/1.8" in size. The lower the MP per square inch/mm of the actual sensor, the more photos of light can be captured per MP. This equals better low light performance *with all other things being equal*.
It is 100% correct *with all other things being equal* as Ilruffian stated.
@@ILruffian What if you were to decrease the MP of this 8mp to say 2mp would that exhibit better lighting, or is it more down to the sensor that happens to come with low MP cameras?
@@CGDreamsTutorials Yes, assuming the the physical sensor size and all other factors stay the same. I will say this from lessons learned during my time as a police detective... If the low light performance of any of the modern Hiks is an problem, visible lighting is a higher priority in your security plan than cameras. Always take a shot at deterrence over good video.
Yes this is correct. See for more information th-cam.com/video/S_ojWWei-ew/w-d-xo.html
The problem with these still or slow changing images is that they are actually a fake images after 3DDNR algorithm. That doesn't worth a penny. Try to capture fast moving objects at night. That's what matters.
what is the sensor?
Hi , it’s a 1/1.2” Progressive scan CMOS with F1.0 aperture
@@DVSLTD Thanks. Bright lens.

Hi kerryman, that’s what I deduced from some other TH-cam comparisons, 4mp was similar. But thought in person viewing on 4K display would make a big difference. But thank you for confirming it.
