Hikvision’s Smart Hybrid Light cameras offer a versatile solution for those who are unsure whether a black and white IR picture or ColorVu mode is best suited for a particular scene. These cameras feature both IR and white LEDs that can be used independently, allowing you to customise your...

Need cameras for side alleys of our house. Both alleys have lighting at night and I currently have DS-2CD2043G0-I. They do an ok job at night, by lowering frame-rate and enabling WDR (but stay in color mode because of alley lights) but I've been thinking about upping the resolution to increase...

The new ColorVu with Smart Hybrid light cameras are now available. As previous posts have detailed these are a hardware enhancement to the existing second generation ColorVu with AcuSense cameras, using the same G5 firmware. First generation ColorVu and AcuSense cameras...

I've recently changed from a Hikvision DS-7604NI-K1 to a DS-7608NI-K2 as I wanted to add more cameras. However I cannot get ColorVu to work on the 8 camera 76 series k2, but it worked fine on the 4 camera 76 series k1. Are there some settings I can look at for this (and which ones?), or is the...

Does anyone have experience connecting Hikvision (colorvu) cameras to a non-Hikvision NVR? Reason is that I find that Hikvision can no longer provide the basic functionality, continuous recording but also seeing the motion markers in web playback. I want and was always able to do so until...

Over the last couple of weeks, you may have seen a couple of threads here at the forum discussing new Hybrid Light cameras from Hikvision. The information we had on these cameras initially was quite vague but with the help of Hikvision Support we now have a bit of a better understanding of this...

Just noticed that there's some new firmware for the G5 platform cameras (G2 AcuSense and ColorVu models with C revision) 5.7.13_230403. The release notes indicate a few fixes for the not yet released dual light cameras and the addition of a human/vehicle filter within Hik-Connect (as is...

I'm looking to install cameras for a restaurant (700m^2) with a large outdoor space of about (6,000m^2). For the exterior I've been researching 4MP ColorVu bullet cameras and for the interior 4MP Acusense dome cameras. Please feel free to suggest other options as I am not an expert with...

I have the following DS-2CD2387G2P 8mp panoramic and a DS-2CD2347G2 4mp turret both LSU/SL At night (with some low level street background ligths) I can see the image on the panoramic is way superior to the turret although when I look at the detailed specs I cant see an obvious difference on...

A new G5 firmware has appeared on the UK portal and release notes are present (applies to c revision G2 ColorVu and Acusense models). I didn't notice it at first as due to the way the portal orders firmware versions by filename, it's not at the bottom of the file list. Notably the release...

Hi, I am looking to add two more cameras. Currently I have two DS-2CD2347G1-LU (4MP). I am considering DS-2CD2387G2-LSU/SL 8MP ColorVu with Two-Way Audio. Is it really worth to invest in 8mp, how much improvement comparing with 4MP DS-2CD2347G2-LSU/SL? Another question - I've noticed that some...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the world of cctv. My first attempt was with Reolink and I must they worst decision but likely I managed to return it and got my refund and since then I have hikvision system. I am very impressed with g2 4mp darkfighter when I put it in color mode for night and now I'm...

I've recently installed a DS-2CD2387G2-LU however I'm having real trouble with the image settings. I've tried all sorts of combinations, however whatever I set it to I'm getting really bad ghosting and distorted frames, to a point where the camera is of currently no use other than knowing when...

Hi, Just bought a ColorVu camera for our testing purpose, the model is DS-2CD3027G0E-LUF (B-R-E8-0). I believe it belongs to the E8 platform, and I could not find any links to the same anywhere. It came with V5.7.0 build 210908 and is giving a very bad dull washed out color images at night, the...

Hi, I have recently installed a DS-2CD2387G2-L(U) down my alley way of my house. The issue I am having is that because it is close to a brick wall the supplement light reflects off of it. The obvious solution is to move the camera further round but then I am essentially pointing my camera into...

Hi guys, can I ask you few questions please? I saw somewhere on internet that Hikvision DS-7732NI-I4-24P was also called embedded. Now from what I understand embedded NVR is basically standalone device which works on its own, right? PC based NVRs need to be connected to a PC to be able to work...
