Finally. The 4K ColorVu is here! Fantastic cameras. I had to log in online to the camera to adjust exposure from 1/25 to 1/100 as movement at the front of my house was slightly fuzzy when pausing but still good detail, colour etc. Rear garden is near pitch black and still clear view. Amazing cameras.

[@DVSLTD]

Thanks for the update , and yes agree this is totally amazing tech 😊

[@mattrizzle4910]

These look great! Another benefit I see of the white light is that it will most likely draw a subjects attention making them look directly at the camera. Say cheese!

A couple of questions (camera newbie): 1: Can this camera be set-up to send the time-lapse images via email? 2: Can this camera be wall-mounted, as is, or must it be used with a suitable wall-bracket?

Dave, I have this ds-7732nxi-i4/16p/s NVR and the 8MP ColorVu 9 cameras fitted. I have also upgraded the firmware. I connected this through HDMI 1 to a 4k Smart TV, I have also set the Menu output to 4k resolution. When streaming for 9Channels on screen all 9 cameras switch to substream which is too low resolution. The hdmi cable is 4k compatible too. I have also set the Main stream Video parameters to 4k but with same substream on 9 split screen. Can you please kindly advise and help in this regards

[@Drian12_1-pn3oi]

which one would you recommend for catching someone slashing my car treys on drive way? i need one that guards a section and when someone enters to blow siren and also clear image to identify the criminal for police?

[@skogsdrake]

Which camera will be best paired with an APNR (AcuSense)? I will be using it in a pitch black setting, so I’m not sure the ColorVu-camera will have any benefit over the AcuSense? Also the APNR will put out IR-light, perhaps helping the AcuSense-camera to see even better in the dark? Will there be any drawbacks using a ColorVu-camera in this scenario (except higher price)?

[@DVSLTD]

if you wany true ANPR you should look at our dedicated ANPR model, using the IR light we can effectively bounce IR off the plate, excluding the characters and then doing the plate read , can you just use that camera??

[@frankdiaz6955]

Is it basically a bright LED light to shine on the subject?

[@DVSLTD]

It’s a LED to give more light to the image which gives better picture quality and of course can be a great deterrent 😊

[@Barry4661]

Having seen this review, I bought 3 of these camera's. So far pretty happy with the image quality especially at night. What I am very dissapointed in is the so called acusense intelligency: I have programmed line crossing smart event by drawing a line in our garden splitting the garden and road alongside. The line is in the middel of the garden, 2 meters away from the road. I have cheched the human and Velihcles boxes. Now at night when a car passes, some headlight light slightly beams over the garden and drawn line and the camera is triggered. So only some light is crossing the line, not the vehicle. I also tried intrusion detection instead, unfortunately with same result. Very very annoing, this is why i bought the acusense in the first place?! Also looking forward to the firmware uopgrade for the lights to come up as alarm. So far not really impressed in general.

[@jcp3842]

I had the same problem you have to go in and adjust the other setting for each intrusion box or line crossing, it will never stop all false alerts but will cut them down dramatically

[@anrivera1975]

I use line crossing instead of intrusion, also you need to tweak the parameters.

[@TheDesertsweeper]

I plan to install these in my food truck and I wish to have the cameras turned on 24/7 from home so that I can monitor it 24/7. Can you tell me how much data will be used on each side?

[@DVSLTD]

this is quite hard to be accurate on , as we would need to know the resolution , frame rate , and encoding format of the setup and if you are using main stream or sub stream to view , with 4 cameras I would imagine it would be sub-stream , if you let me know the others I will try to be more accurate

[@gazfrc4754]

Impossible to predict an accurate figure. However, you would need to probably focus your attention to the Gateway & Upload capabilities ..................... assuming you will be using a 4G Mobile Net type Gateway? ...... may not be suitable for 24/7 live view, however would be perfect to send Push Notifications & Occasional Live View

[@ThePopolou]

Steaming MJPEG (5fps say) from 5 cameras for 8hrs, 5 days a week has meant I've clocked over 150GB pcm. If you steamed an rstp for each camera instead, you'll probably get through the same data in just a week.

[@MrBrettStar]

Have you had any reports of the white light not automatically changing with firmware 5.7.2 build 220713? I’ve also found to turn it on or off manually, it requires a restart. Also it would be great to talk about the wdr function on the g2 cameras (particularly the colorvu). I believe that anything 40 and under enhances the one image (which might be better to reduce ghosting), and anything over 40 combines exposures therefore more detail but is a much darker image and can have some ghosting.

Why would you not set Video Quality in both Main & Sub-Streams to Highest in the Camera Parameters. Also why not Change Encoding to H.265 in the Sub-Stream settings ............................... i can't think of what you would gain by this

[@DVSLTD]

changing to the highest does have a effect on the bitrate and not everyone can tolerate that, in actual deployment it makes little difference to the image quality itself, sub-stream we leave as 264 , we see less issues around this especially when using app on the phone as some phones don’t like to decode the 265 efficiently and therefore for support reasons we leave them that way we min impact on the deployment , but like everything it’s a choice , you can change as required.

Heya mate, I'm loving your videos. New subscriber here in Ireland!! I've just had a terrible experience with reolink cameras and I am now doing the research I should have done in the first place! I bought 6 reolink 4k cameras and an NVR but after setting them up I realised that the nighttime videos are absolutely appalling. They slow their shutter speed down to something like 1/3 or 1/4 sec at night which produces terrible videos with crazy blur and ghosting. It's not user adjustable either. The 6 year old 1080p swann cameras I'm replacing are actually much better at night. I am going to buy a couple of these colorvu cameras as I've now decided that it's better to have two great cameras than 6 sh1te cameras for the same money. My question to you is this - what nvr should I buy to pair with colorvu cameras? I would really like something that has person and vehicle detection and a good android app for live view and playback. The only impressive thing about reolink was the phone app so I'd like to get somewhere near that kind of functionality. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome to the family 😊 , actually if you want a Good NVR the K series NVR will work well, something like the DS-7608NI-K1 or DS-7608NI-K2 model will be good , the Acusense cameras have both human & vehicle VCA function and the App HIK-Connect is simple to use and works well , and constantly being updated also , I hope this helps and here if needed.

they're 8MP cameras , but they will loose quality over the distance mentioned , we also do a 12MP camera but that is a very big jump in price , could you use more of the cameras to cover the area in question ?

Is there a link to the night images yet? I currently have the 4Mp DS-2CD2347G2-LU and am considering making the switch to the ds-2cd2387g2-lu, where the night images should be better than my current camera.

Meanwhile, I own the 2nd ds-2cd2387g2-lu. The 1st one gave problems with recording to the sd card after a month. And after investigation by Hiksvision, I received a new camera. And the 2nd camera shows the same problems with recordings to the sd card after a month. And here I am not getting happy and suspect that there is a problem in a certain series of cameras, if not in all cameras of this type. I have set the following configuration on the camera. Detection recording to the sd card and 24/7 recording to the NAS. This configuration works fine on my other 3 Hiksvision cameras,.

Are you aware of an acusense cam that switches on colorvu only upon humanoid or vehicle detection and otherwise runs ir at night?

[@DVSLTD]

we don’t have both tech in same camera yet but its being worked on I believe 😊

[@bashaz8559]

@@DVSLTD it already exists

👍👍

It works really well during the day capturing reg plates but at night they all have a white glare and does not read any at all

Hello, thanks for your videos. I have one question: are there any difference between DS-2TD2636-10 and ds-2td2617-3/pa? I'm planning to use both for perimeter detection, will be both ok without any annoying false alarms? Thanks.

[@DVSLTD]

Hi and thanks, there are difference between the 2 models but both use thermal and the VCA will be very stable for perimeter protection 😊

Are these the Chinese cameras the UK gov banned due to regular data dumps?

[@doyourduediligence4986]

Have changed my 4MP for this 8MP, looks great but live view now sticks every 2secs or so when viewing, 4MP used to run smooth. Have tried rebooting and it's on latest firmware so dunno, any ideas?

[@DVSLTD]

where is it sticking on the App? Or on the local machine itself ?

[@Horizon301.]

Did you sort this?

[@kevintroka9728]

Stick a few more elongated, won’t you mate!? 😂

Again a shame they have not worked so that you don’t need the spacer. Working on external brickwork the spacers really do make the cameras look industrial.

[@DVSLTD]

They are looking at increasing the depth of the base so that cabling can sit behind it , I will let you know ore details when I have them 😊

[@simonghill]

@@DVSLTD Thank you. The difference doesn’t need to be much. Not having to chisel out mortar for those customers that absolutely will not accept the spacer will be a great bonus.

[@gazfrc4754]

@@simonghill why not just drill a 25mm hole to bring the cable through, the weather proof gland will slip straight up that?

[@DavidGordon2468]

Is it per chance eeeeeeeelongateddddddd

[@veryboringname.]

Yes, but that is just one thing to note.

[@DVSLTD]

No not at all , why would you think that ? 🤣
