Hikvision ColorVu 3K panoramic dome, 40m hybrid-light, microphone, 12VDC **Requires HQHI/XT DVR**

★★★★★ "Mounted it above the warehouse loading bay and it covers the entire area in 3K colour - no blind spots at all." - Siphamandla D., Durban

Hikvision 180 - ColorVu 3K Panoramic Dome Camera with 40m Hybrid Light and Built-in Microphone

The Hikvision DS-2CE72KF3TP-DLS 180 is a high-resolution 3K panoramic dome camera delivering 180-degree wide-angle coverage from a single ceiling-mounted unit. Powered by ColorVu technology with 40m hybrid light illumination and a built-in microphone, it eliminates surveillance gaps in loading bays, shop floors, reception areas, and large covered spaces - requires a Hikvision HQHI or XT series DVR for full 3K panoramic functionality.

Why This Camera Stands Out

• 180-Degree Panoramic Dome Coverage - Ceiling-mounted form factor provides seamless 180-degree coverage, replacing multiple standard cameras from a single installation point in wide indoor and covered outdoor spaces.
• 3K ColorVu Resolution - High-resolution full-colour night vision across the complete panoramic field delivers identification-quality imagery in any lighting condition.
• Built-in Microphone - Captures on-site audio across the full panoramic zone for a more complete security and compliance record.

Key Features

• 3K resolution (approximately 5MP) with ColorVu colour night vision
• 180-degree panoramic wide-angle dome lens
• 40m hybrid light illumination (IR + white light)
• Built-in microphone for audio recording
• Requires Hikvision HQHI or XT series DVR
• Supports AHD, TVI, CVI, and CVBS output
• IP67 weatherproof rating
• 12VDC power supply
• Dome body for ceiling mounting

Why You'll Love It

Large open spaces challenge traditional cameras - you either use multiple units or accept blind spots. The DS-2CE72KF3TP-DLS 180 takes the single-camera approach and makes it work. One ceiling mount, 180 degrees of 3K colour coverage, built-in audio - the efficient, comprehensive solution for warehouses, loading areas, retail floors, and covered car parks.

FAQ

What is the difference between the panoramic bullet and panoramic dome versions?
The DS-2CE12KF3TP-DLS 180 bullet is better suited for wall or corner mounting, pointing horizontally across a wide area. This dome version is optimised for ceiling mounting, covering a wide area below - ideal for shop floors, loading bays, and indoor commercial spaces.

Why does this require an HQHI or XT series DVR?
The 3K panoramic resolution requires a DVR with sufficient bandwidth and resolution support. Standard entry-level DVRs may not support full 3K panoramic output. Contact us at support@apextradedynamics.co.za to confirm compatibility.

Can this camera be used outdoors?
Yes. The IP67 weatherproof rating makes it suitable for covered outdoor areas such as loading bays, covered car parks, and building eaves. For fully exposed outdoor use, consider a bullet-format camera. View all FAQs.
