Key Capabilities
16MP Ultra-High-Definition Imaging
The 1/1.8-inch sensor produces up to 4608 × 3456 resolution, delivering high pixel density across large scenes. This provides more recorded detail for post-event review and makes the camera especially useful where smaller targets may need to be inspected digitally after an incident.
DarkFighter 2.0 with HIK AI-ISP
DarkFighter 2.0 and HIK AI-ISP work together to improve colour reproduction, brightness and noise control in challenging lighting. The F1.2 aperture and 0.0008 Lux colour sensitivity support strong low-light performance before supplemental lighting is required.
2.7–13.5 mm Motorised Varifocal Lens
The motorised lens adjusts from approximately 99° to 43° horizontal field of view, allowing installers to balance broad scene coverage against higher pixel density on a narrower target. Remote zoom and focus also simplify commissioning compared with a manually adjusted varifocal lens.
40 m Smart Hybrid Light
Integrated infrared and white supplemental lighting reach up to 40 metres. Smart Hybrid Light provides three lighting modes, allowing the camera to operate with discreet IR, visible white light or an intelligent lighting strategy according to the configured security requirement.
Human & Vehicle Deep Learning
Perimeter protection supports line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting detection with alarms filtered by human and vehicle target types. This helps reduce irrelevant event notifications caused by general scene movement.
Active Strobe, Speaker & Dual Microphones
The /SL configuration combines an active strobe light, built-in speaker and arrayed dual microphones. This enables audible warning, real-time two-way audio and visual deterrence directly from the camera, while line-level audio input and output remain available for external equipment.
Best For
- Commercial perimeters: High-resolution imaging, human/vehicle classification and active warning functions suit boundaries and restricted outdoor areas.
- Warehouses and logistics yards: The motorised lens and 40 metre Smart Hybrid Light provide flexible coverage across loading, storage and vehicle areas.
- Gates and driveways: Narrower lens settings can increase pixel density on controlled entry points while retaining intelligent detection and deterrence.
- After-hours protection: Strobe and audible warning functions can respond to configured intrusion or perimeter events.
- Demanding outdoor sites: IP67, IK10 and NEMA 4X protection on the Y version suit environments requiring additional resistance to weather, impact and moderate corrosion.
Why Choose the DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL
The DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL combines very high 16MP image detail with flexible motorised optics and proactive security functions in a robust turret format. DarkFighter 2.0 and HIK AI-ISP help retain useful colour and detail in difficult lighting, while Smart Hybrid Light extends night-time coverage with both IR and white illumination. Deep-learning human and vehicle filtering improves event relevance, and the integrated dual microphones, speaker and strobe provide real-time communication and active deterrence without requiring separate devices. Available through Security Wholesalers, the Y anti-corrosion version is particularly suitable where image quality, analytics, environmental protection and on-camera warning functions all need to be addressed by one professional outdoor camera.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Maximum 4608 × 3456 resolution operates at up to 12.5 fps in a 50 Hz system. If smoother motion is more important than maximum pixel count, the camera supports up to 25 fps at 3840 × 2160 and several lower resolutions.
Buyer Tip: Use the motorised lens to match the actual target area rather than leaving the camera permanently at the widest view. The tele end provides substantially more pixel density on distant gates, entries and other identification-critical areas.

FAQs
- Is the Hikvision DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL a 16MP camera?
Yes. The DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL uses a 1/1.8-inch Progressive Scan CMOS sensor and provides a maximum resolution of 4608 × 3456, which is approximately 16MP. In a 50 Hz system, full 4608 × 3456 recording operates at up to 12.5 fps, while 3840 × 2160 and other lower resolutions can operate at up to 25 fps. This makes the camera particularly useful where very high scene detail is a priority. - What lens does the DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL use?
The camera uses a motorised 2.7–13.5 mm varifocal lens with a maximum F1.2 aperture. Its field of view adjusts from approximately 99° to 43° horizontally, 72° to 33° vertically and 136° to 54° diagonally. This allows the installer to begin with a broad overview and then tighten the view for entrances, driveways, gates or other areas where higher pixel density is required. - How far do the IR and white lights reach?
The DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL integrates infrared and white supplemental lighting with a specified range of up to 40 metres. Smart Hybrid Light provides three supplemental-light modes, allowing the camera to use IR, white light or an intelligent lighting strategy depending on configuration. The 40 metre figure is an illumination range rather than a guaranteed identification distance, so usable detail still depends on lens position, subject size and scene conditions. - Does the DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL support two-way audio?
Yes. The camera includes an arrayed dual microphone and a built-in speaker for real-time two-way audio. Hikvision specifies a maximum speaker power consumption of 2 W and a maximum sound pressure level of 97 dB at 10 cm. The camera also provides one line-level audio input and one line-level audio output, giving installers additional flexibility when external audio equipment is required. - Does this Hikvision turret camera have active deterrence?
Yes. The /SL version includes a built-in strobe light and audible warning capability that can be linked to configured events. These functions can work with deep-learning perimeter protection such as line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting rules with human and vehicle filtering. This allows the camera to provide a visible and audible response when relevant targets trigger configured security rules. - What smart analytics are built into the camera?
The camera supports deep-learning human and vehicle classification for perimeter protection, including line crossing, intrusion, region entrance and region exiting detection. It also supports face capture, scene change detection, audio exception detection, defocus detection and motion detection with specified human and vehicle target filtering. These functions give installers multiple event types for professional outdoor surveillance and alarm integration. - How much onboard storage does the DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL support?
The camera includes a built-in memory-card slot supporting microSD, microSDHC and microSDXC cards up to 512 GB. Local storage can be used for recording and event capture and can complement supported network-storage functions such as NAS and Auto Network Replenishment. When planning the camera through Security Wholesalers, match the card endurance and capacity to the actual recording workload rather than choosing storage by capacity alone. - Is the DS-2CD3H167G3-LIZSUY-SL suitable for harsh outdoor installations?
Yes. The camera is rated IP67 for dust and water resistance and IK10 for impact resistance. The Y anti-corrosion version also carries NEMA 4X protection and is classified by Hikvision for moderate anti-corrosion applications. Its specified operating range is -30°C to 60°C with humidity up to 95% non-condensing. Correct mounting, sealing and cabling are still required to maintain the performance of the complete outdoor installation.
