Product SKU: DS-2CD2347G2-LU
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2347G2-LU is a 4MP ColorVu Gen2 fixed turret camera with a 4mm lens, designed for buyers who need full-colour day and night surveillance with smart detection and built-in audio recording. It suits driveways, shopfronts, office entrances, small business exteriors and other areas where colour detail is more useful than traditional black-and-white infrared footage. With its F1.0 large aperture, white LED illumination up to 40m, AcuSense human and vehicle classification, 130dB WDR and IP67 weather protection, this model is well suited to low-light outdoor security. The fixed 4mm lens provides a balanced 86° horizontal field of view, making it practical for medium-distance monitoring of entrances, paths and vehicle areas.
Key Capabilities
Full-Colour Night Monitoring
ColorVu technology allows the camera to capture colour footage day and night using its F1.0 aperture and white LED illumination. This is useful where clothing colour, vehicle colour or scene context may help during event review.
AcuSense Human and Vehicle Detection
AcuSense helps distinguish people and vehicles from other movement in the scene. This can reduce nuisance alerts caused by rain, animals, moving leaves or shadows, making notifications more useful in real installations.
Built-In Microphone
The integrated microphone records audio alongside video, adding context to incidents around doors, driveways, shopfronts and office entrances. This can help when reviewing what happened before or during an event.
Balanced 4mm Viewing Angle
The 4mm fixed lens provides an 86° horizontal field of view, making it suitable for medium-distance monitoring. It is a practical choice when you want more focus than a very wide 2.8mm lens.
Clear Imaging in Difficult Light
130dB WDR helps improve image clarity where bright and dark areas appear in the same scene. This is useful for entrances, windows, covered walkways and outdoor areas affected by strong sunlight or backlight.
Outdoor-Ready Turret Design
The IP67-rated housing makes the DS-2CD2347G2-LU suitable for outdoor installation around homes and businesses. Its turret form factor works well for fixed coverage of selected areas.
Best For
- Shopfronts: Suitable for monitoring entrances with colour footage, audio capture and human detection after hours.
- Driveways: A practical option for identifying people and vehicles where a balanced 4mm view is preferred.
- Office Entrances: Useful for entry doors, low-light corridors and exterior access points where audio context may help.
- Small Business Exteriors: Works well around workshops, reception entries, side doors and external customer access areas.
- Medium-Distance Fixed Coverage: Best for buyers who want a more focused view than a wide-angle lens without moving to a zoom camera.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2347G2-LU
The DS-2CD2347G2-LU is worth choosing when full-colour night footage, smart detection and audio recording are more important than discreet infrared-only monitoring. Its 4mm lens provides a more focused view than wider lens options, making it useful for driveways, shopfronts, gates and office entrances where subjects are not extremely close to the camera. This model does not focus on strobe or speaker-based deterrence; instead, it prioritises colour evidence, clear low-light video, AcuSense filtering and compact turret installation. As part of the Security Wholesalers range, it suits buyers wanting a clean fixed camera for practical everyday surveillance.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: This 4mm version is best when you want a more focused field of view than a wide-angle 2.8mm camera. It suits entrances, driveways and paths where the subject area is slightly further away or narrower.
Buyer Tip: The camera uses white light for colour night recording rather than infrared. This is useful for colour evidence, but it means the camera’s illumination is visible at night and may not suit very discreet installations.

Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this 4mm model if: You want a balanced, more focused view for driveways, entries, office doors, shopfronts or medium-distance fixed coverage.
- Choose a wider lens if: You need broader close-range coverage across a yard, small room, wide shopfront or short driveway.
- Choose a narrower lens if: You need to focus more tightly on a gate, corridor, fence line or longer-distance target area.
- Choose a different model if: You need infrared-only discreet night vision, a strobe light, a speaker, two-way audio or active deterrence warnings.
FAQs
- Is the DS-2CD2347G2-LU 4mm suitable for driveways?
Yes. The DS-2CD2347G2-LU 4mm is suitable for driveways where a balanced field of view, colour night footage and human or vehicle detection are useful. The 4mm lens gives a more focused view than a wider lens, so it is best for driveways where the key area is slightly further away or narrower. - Does this camera record in colour at night?
Yes. This model uses ColorVu technology, an F1.0 large aperture and white LED illumination to provide full-colour monitoring in low-light conditions. This is useful when colour detail matters, such as identifying clothing or vehicles. Buyers should remember that white light is visible at night, unlike discreet infrared illumination. - What field of view does the 4mm lens provide?
The 4mm lens provides an 86° horizontal field of view. This gives a more focused view than a very wide 2.8mm lens while still covering useful areas such as driveways, office entrances, shopfronts and paths. It is a good middle-ground option when you do not want the scene to appear too wide. - Does the DS-2CD2347G2-LU include a microphone?
Yes. The DS-2CD2347G2-LU includes a built-in microphone for recording audio with video, where configured correctly and where local requirements permit. Audio can provide useful context when reviewing activity near shopfronts, driveways or office entrances. This is audio capture only and should not be confused with two-way speaker communication. - How does AcuSense help with alerts?
AcuSense uses deep learning to focus detection on humans and vehicles rather than every movement in the scene. This can reduce nuisance alerts caused by rain, animals, leaves or shadows. It is especially useful for outdoor areas where standard motion detection may trigger too often and make event review harder. - Does this camera use infrared night vision?
No infrared night mode is listed for this model. The DS-2CD2347G2-LU uses white light illumination for full-colour night recording. This makes it a strong choice where colour evidence is needed, but buyers wanting very discreet black-and-white IR night recording should choose a different model designed for infrared night vision. - Is this camera suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. The DS-2CD2347G2-LU has an IP67 rating, making it suitable for outdoor use around homes, shops, offices and small business exteriors. Correct camera placement still matters. For most buyers, Security Wholesalers recommends using the 4mm lens where a balanced, slightly more focused view is needed. - Does this camera have active deterrence?
No strobe light, siren or speaker-based deterrence feature is listed for this model. It focuses on colour night imaging, AcuSense detection, built-in microphone audio capture and fixed 4mm viewing. Choose an active deterrence model if you want the camera to trigger warning lights or audible alerts when movement is detected. - What is the white light range?
The white light range is listed up to 40m. This supports full-colour night recording in suitable scenes, but actual visibility can vary depending on mounting height, scene reflectivity, nearby lighting and the distance to the target area. White light is best used where visible illumination is acceptable for the installation.
