Hikvision 4MP ColorVu Bullet Camera

The Hikvision 4MP ColorVu Bullet Camera (DS-2CE12UH8T-E) delivers something no standard CCTV camera can: full-colour footage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. While conventional cameras switch to grainy black-and-white at night, ColorVu illuminates the scene with a warm white light and captures vivid colour footage that makes identification dramatically easier.

Why does colour matter? In a security incident, colour is the first thing investigators ask about — "What colour was the car?" "What colour shirt was the suspect wearing?" Standard night vision cameras cannot answer these questions. ColorVu can.

The F1.0 large aperture lens gathers four times more light than a standard F2.0 lens. Combined with the supplemental white light (which is less visible than harsh IR light), the camera produces bright, natural-looking footage that looks almost like daytime recording.

At 4MP (2560×1440) resolution, you get both colour and detail — sharp enough to identify faces, number plates, and specific clothing items at the distances that matter most for your gate or shop entrance.

The IP67 weatherproof housing handles Kerala's monsoon season without issue. PoC compatibility means a single coaxial cable provides both power and video, simplifying installation significantly.

For homes, shops, and businesses in Kottayam where incident identification is important, this camera is one of the best upgrades available over standard night vision cameras.
