Product SKU: DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is an 8MP Smart Hybrid Light ColorVu turret camera built for high-detail outdoor surveillance, colour night imaging, and active deterrence in one fixed camera. It suits homes, driveways, shopfronts, warehouses, offices, car parks, strata properties, and perimeter areas where buyers need reliable evidence, not just basic motion recording. With ColorVu technology, a large F1.0 aperture, Super Confocal Lens design, human and vehicle detection, 130 dB WDR, built-in microphone, speaker, and strobe light, this model is well suited to locations where night-time detail and event accuracy matter. The fixed 2.8mm or 4mm lens options allow buyers to choose between wider coverage or more targeted viewing, making the camera practical for both open approach areas and narrower entry points.
Best For
- Driveways and front entries: The 8MP resolution, ColorVu imaging, and active deterrence features make this camera useful for monitoring vehicles, visitors, deliveries, and after-hours movement.
- Shopfronts and commercial entrances: Smart Hybrid Light and human or vehicle detection help capture useful event footage while reducing unnecessary light use when no relevant activity is present.
- Outdoor perimeter coverage: The IP67-rated housing supports exposed installation around building edges, side paths, car parks, loading areas, and other outdoor security zones.
- Sites needing active deterrence: The built-in strobe light and speaker help discourage unwanted activity, making this model more suitable than a passive camera in higher-risk positions.
- Audio-supported video evidence: The built-in microphone and speaker provide extra context for supported installations where audio capture and communication are appropriate.
Why Choose the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL
Choose the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL if you want a fixed turret camera with stronger night performance, active deterrence, and smarter event filtering than a standard IR camera. The key advantage is its mix of 8MP detail, ColorVu low-light imaging, Smart Hybrid Light operation, and deep learning-based human and vehicle detection. In real installations, this helps capture clearer footage when activity occurs and reduces the chance of irrelevant movement being treated as important. The built-in speaker, strobe light, and microphone also make this model a better fit for entrances, driveways, shopfronts, and perimeter areas where deterring activity can be just as important as recording it.
Buyer Decision Guide
Buyer Tip: Choose the 2.8mm lens if you want wider scene coverage for areas such as driveways, courtyards, shopfronts, and open entry points. Choose the 4mm lens if you prefer a narrower view with more focus on a specific gate, doorway, path, or approach area.
Buyer Tip: This model is a strong choice when you want active deterrence from a fixed turret camera. If you need optical zoom, remote pan and tilt control, or smart tracking across a large site, a PTZ or varifocal model may be more suitable.
Key Capabilities
8MP Ultra-HD Imaging
The 8MP resolution provides detailed footage for fixed camera positions where faces, vehicles, clothing, activity, and scene context matter. This is useful for buyers who want more useful evidence than a lower-resolution camera can usually provide.
Smart Hybrid Light Technology
Smart Hybrid Light allows the camera to use infrared, warm white light, or smart switching depending on the scene. This helps reduce constant visible light while still capturing colour detail when people or vehicles are detected.
ColorVu Low-Light Performance
ColorVu imaging, supported by the large F1.0 aperture and Super Confocal Lens, helps capture more useful colour information in low-light environments. This matters in areas where clothing, vehicle colour, or scene detail may help during footage review.
Human and Vehicle Detection
Deep learning-based detection helps the camera focus on people and vehicles rather than general motion. This is useful for reducing unnecessary event notifications from trees, shadows, rain, insects, or other less relevant movement.
Active Deterrence
The built-in strobe light and speaker allow the camera to respond more actively to unwanted activity. This makes it suitable for entrances, driveways, storage areas, car parks, and other locations where visible deterrence is valuable.
Audio Context and Communication
The built-in microphone and speaker provide additional context for supported recordings and allow audio interaction where configured. This can be useful at gates, counters, loading areas, reception entries, and other monitored access points.
Efficient Recording
H.265+ compression helps reduce storage and bandwidth demands while maintaining useful video quality. This is particularly helpful when recording 8MP footage across longer retention periods on a compatible recorder.

FAQs
Is the Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is suitable for outdoor installations thanks to its IP67-rated housing. It is a practical choice for driveways, shopfronts, car parks, courtyards, warehouse entries, and perimeter zones where weather resistance, night visibility, and event detection are important.
Does this camera support colour night vision?
Yes, the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL uses ColorVu technology and Smart Hybrid Light operation to support colour imaging in low-light environments. This is useful when colour detail, such as clothing, vehicle colour, or scene context, may help during footage review after an event.
What does Smart Hybrid Light do on this model?
Smart Hybrid Light allows the camera to switch between infrared and warm white light modes based on human or vehicle activity. This helps reduce constant visible light while still allowing the camera to capture clearer colour footage when relevant movement is detected in the scene.
Does the DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL have active deterrence?
Yes, this model includes a built-in strobe light and speaker, making it suitable for active deterrence applications. This can be useful at driveways, gates, shopfronts, storage areas, and perimeter locations where warning responses may help discourage unwanted activity.
Does this Hikvision camera record audio?
Yes, the Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL includes a built-in microphone and speaker. This can add useful context to supported recordings and allow audio interaction where configured. Buyers should ensure audio use is suitable for the site and complies with local privacy, signage, workplace, or tenancy requirements.
What is the difference between the 2.8mm and 4mm lens options?
The 2.8mm lens provides a wider field of view, making it useful for open areas such as driveways, courtyards, and shopfronts. The 4mm lens gives a narrower view and is better when you want more focus on a specific doorway, gate, path, or approach point.
How far can this camera see at night?
The DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL supports up to 40m IR range and 30m white light range. Real-world performance depends on the mounting height, lighting conditions, lens choice, scene layout, and the level of detail needed for detection, recognition, or identification.
Does this model support human and vehicle detection?
Yes, this camera supports human and vehicle detection using deep learning algorithms. This helps reduce false alerts from general movement and makes the camera more useful for monitoring areas where people and vehicles are the main security concern.
Can I use this camera for a shopfront or commercial entrance?
Yes, the Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL is well suited to shopfronts and commercial entrances. Its 8MP resolution, ColorVu imaging, Smart Hybrid Light, active deterrence, and human or vehicle detection make it useful for after-hours monitoring, entry coverage, and event review.
Does this camera need a compatible recorder?
