Product Description
The Hikvision DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL is an 8MP turret camera that records in full colour, day and night — thanks to ColorVu 3.0 and an F1.0 lens that lets in far more light than a standard lens. That means clothing colour, vehicle colour and signage stay visible after dark, not just grey IR shapes.
Key specs
- 8MP (3840×2160), 1/1.8" progressive scan CMOS sensor
- Smart Hybrid Light: IR and white light, switching automatically, illuminating up to 30m
- Fixed 2.8mm lens, 108.8° horizontal field of view — good for wide entrances or perimeters, not narrow chokepoints
- Built-in dual microphones and speaker for two-way audio
- Active deterrence: strobe light and audible alarm on detected intrusion
- Human and vehicle classification via deep learning, plus line-crossing and intrusion detection
- IP67-rated metal housing for outdoor use
- Onboard storage up to 512GB via microSD — useful if you're not running an NVR
- Powered by PoE (802.3at) or 12V DC
What to check before buying
- Confirm your NVR supports Hikvision or ONVIF cameras — this model works with either.
- If footage will sit on the microSD card rather than an NVR, make sure the card is rated for continuous CCTV writing.
- The 30m illumination range suits driveways and shop fronts well; longer approaches may need a different lens variant.
This camera fits entrances, perimeters, and commercial or industrial sites where identifying colour detail at night matters more than plain monochrome footage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this camera record in colour at night, or just black and white?
It records in full colour at night. ColorVu 3.0 with the F1.0 lens captures enough light to keep footage in colour, and Smart Hybrid Light adds IR or white light automatically to help.
How far does the night illumination reach?
Up to 30 metres, which covers most driveways, shop fronts and standard car park bays.
Can I record without an NVR?
Yes — it supports onboard storage up to 512GB via a microSD card, though it also integrates with Hikvision and ONVIF-compatible NVR systems.
What power options does it support?
It can be powered via PoE (IEEE 802.3at) or 12V DC, giving some flexibility depending on your existing cabling.
