- This is a review of the DS-2CD2347G1-L(U) ColorVU Camera by Hikvision.
Unlike typical security cameras that switch to black and white at night time, this camera provides a Full-Color image Day and Night (24/7). Today we put it to the test against our standard Hikvision 8MP Turret camera.
Security Perth offers the full range of Hikvison cameras and intercoms and provides full installation within the Perth Metro Area.

Best colorvu review I've seen so far. I'm in the industry and I've learnt something from this. Thank
6:57 love how the sea can changes color and branding between day and night.
Great explanation. I was searching youtube for Blacklight CCTV which seems to be the term sellers are using. I have old 700tvl cameras and I just use a separate sensor light, does the same job for less cost.
Great commentary on this camera. All the facts without the small talk. Good job
As a police CCTV specialist, I can confirm that conventional IR illumnated CCTV scenes are evidentially almost useless. The main reason is the 'polyester effect', where even black clothes containing any amount of polyester can appear grey or even white.
great review, it is ironic that when I started 10 years ago you had a box camera with sens-up. It seems retailers forgot about those.
Thank you for the firmware update, makes this camera so much better!
Terrific video - super informative. I only wish I lived in Perth so I could get you to kit out my house!
It is hard to believe this is a 30fps camera as the image is so jerky. For that reason alone like my 8MP 4K Amcrest turret camera that records at 15fps I cannot say I would buy it. Not sure but Amcrest might be Hikvision cameras with Amcrest software on them. In fact the jerkness of this video during the day looks like my 15fps camera which points to my street and is hard even in the day to get good images when things are in motion. The night vision is incredible though and in fact the best that I have ever seen on these cheap cameras. Thanks for making the video.
2MP is nothing to sniff at, don't forget it is still "full HD". If you don't need numberplate reading at great distance, 2MP should suffice. And as cars can't get everywhere, there are bound to be lots of locations where 2MP is perfect for the job.
Salut à tous 😉
Merci beaucoup pour votre présentation 😇
I like the way u explain thanks for that
good explanation tx
this was a great review!
Fantastic review. Thanks so much.

You verified they are Poe but I see there is an earth screw on the camera itself. Is that necessary, or is the only wire needed, the ethernet cable from the NVR.
Thanks in advance
Great comparison thanks! Have you had the chance of comparing it with the 8MP acusense? Does the 4K sensor stand a chance of delivering similar performance (assuming there is some street lighting). Thanks
That was really useful - thank you!
how do you activate the led light on line crossing event, I have the same camera but don't see the option for it? thank you
Same here! How to you turn on the light based on an event? It's nowhere in my menu!
Nevermind - just found it under Alastair Stevenson's comment. Maybe you should consider writing it in the video's description. Thanks anyway. It works!
Amazing video, just subscribed to the channel!
Hi after seen your review of the colourvu I have purchased 3 cameras and they are brilliant.
To look at the cameras at night you would think it is still daylight.
I have a basic 4ch hikvision NVR for the 3 IP cameras however the unit do not always produce thumbnails in the him connect app.
Can you recommend a better brand or model
of NVR, should I go for a higher spec hikvision
unit or is there a brand that has better
performance and functionality ?
Many thanks in advance
Kind regards
Danny
Hello ther is the 4mp the same as the 3k I'm just wondering which would be best
Hi can you tell me what exposure setting you’re using in exposure time white balance setting WDR level + image enhancement as I can’t get it as good as you my friend Paul from Wales UK
If you don't want to use the light at all , can it switched off in the NVR software? Or do you have to use the SADP software? Can you do a tutorial on how you set up the line event?
Hi I live in Canada and this option is not available for North American market yet .I hope it will be soon
same for G2 in Russia
I like this review, thanks but can it do 'onvif-m' does it have a line out to go to a siren?
Is it able to know the difference between a cat or a person climbing over a fence when on 'fence guard'
I wanted these cameras but NO hikvision colourvu cameras have an option/setting where LEDs are off until a sense has set them off.... if as this video suggests the leds come on if line detection these cameras would be perfect for Home use.....maybe hik will update firmware to allow this as an option.....maybe not avaliable for uk spec...
Hi, i have the same problem, i bought a kit from Hikvision, no chance to switch them on by cross line detection, just a silly "Buzzer Alarm", an E-mail, an Alarm Pop -up Window or a Notify Surveillance Center, i am very disappointed 😒.
@@SP-qz4pq I agree, i bought the kit too thinking this it is possible too. Dont want my house to be lit up as much.
How do you like this compared to the acusense in regards to visibility at night and day? Especially considering the acusense line now includes a 6 and 8mp version. Based on your last comment about higher megapixel it sounds like that should do worse at night?
Can you set it so when they walk out of shot or another line, the light goes off?
Good video 👍🏼
How do you configure this camera for the light to only turn on once motion is detected / line crossing ?
hi, how high is this camera from the ground. Thanks!
Compared to a dahua Model 5442
.. which one would you choose and why🧐
Fantastic presentation 👍
does POE have enough power to allow light to turn on ?
How do I turn on the LED lights I can't seem to find where... thanks
This looks interesting is it available for hd over coax?
Can the night time illuminator be forced OFF ?
Where is the Option that the Light
only goas on at Motion? Or a nother smart Event?
Need to upgrade the firmware.
@@SecPerth Hallo thx but i have the latest Firmware! What Firmware Do you have?
@@SecPerth can you please tell me what firmware you are using, thank you
@@SecPerth same question
What minimal focusing distance is there for 2.8mm model? I am looking for a good indoor camera, and would love for focus to go down to 1m, or slightly less.

Need to upgrade the firmware. "
I've been waiting for that event trigger capability to turn on the LEDs for some months, and it's not yet in the IPC_G1_EN_STD_5.6.5_200316 firmware.
What version of firmware were you using?
Is it available for public download / where ?
Many thanks.
I'm also interested in knowing the version of firmware in the camera reviewed
I am also want the New Firmware
Any links to new firmware
@@richardwilliamson795 that version does not have the linkage action to turn on the LEDs. Did you test it?
Hi Alastair,
Here's a link to the firmware, along with some instructions. Scroll down to the Downloads section.
www.securityperth.com.au/security-cameras-perth/hikvision/colorvu-fixed-turret-network-camera
Is this better than Dahua 5442 with same 1/1.8" sensor ?
how height camrea from ground
Do I want dahua or colorvue on a budget ?
Can you speak through the camera via the app ?
What about if this camera inside the house?
Can i use this in my car to catch vandals.
Can this activate under car glass.
Is it for out doors.
Hi Security Perth Pty Ltd,
got a couple of these in L(U) and just the L versions. The firmware on your site worked on the 'L(U)' version but not on the 'L' version. Do you know where i can find the firmware that can trigger the LED during an event on the 'L' version. Thanks
Hi I am living in Canada and having the same problem . Contacted to the HIK Canada and they do not know about this option for the camera .
What is the difference between the L(U) and the L model (question is not related to the firmware, only to the hardware differences)?
@@Silu848 built-in microphone
Does it possible colour View in complete dark when there their is no light where humen eye fails
No
Just make sure your customers or you the consumer got a UHD TV/Monitor.
Or else they ain't seeing the value.
What setting is it to get the LED to activate when the line is crossed, currently I can only have the LED on or off no other option. Thanks.
Found it.
@@612huffy Care to share where you found that setting?
Derrick Alexander look down the comments, the one with 8 replies. There’s a link to the firmware and instructions how to do it.
@@612huffy I have installed the new firmware. Just can't find out how to not have the LED on all the time, only when there is a line crossing event. In line crossing detection -> linkage method I have clicked "Flashing Alarm", but that do not work. I currently have System Settings -> External Device NOT enabled.
@@derrick9655 Enable supplement light / auto. Then check the box timing this will then give you the option to check the box triggered by event, the threshold is the time the camera flashes so 10 = 10 seconds on 10 seconds off . Hope this helps.
All these latest and greatest technology won’t change anything for Aliens👽captured on cameras though, because the videos are always grainy and blurry. What do you think that is?
Освещение включилось, но толку это не дало. Объект стал только цветным, качество и детализация не изменились.

Is this Poe
Yes it is.
