Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CD2187G2H-LISU is a high-performance 8MP (4K) outdoor fixed dome surveillance camera engineered for residential and commercial environments demanding full-colour night recording. Combining ColorVu technology with Smart Hybrid Light, this camera seamlessly transitions between covert IR and warm white illumination to ensure optimum visibility in changing light levels. Equipped with an integrated microphone, efficient H.265+ video encoding, and AcuSense artificial intelligence for target filtering, it enhances both live monitoring efficiency and forensic evidence review. Featuring a compact dome form factor with a 2.8mm fixed lens and IP67 weather resistance, it serves as an ideal security solution for shopfronts, entryways, parking areas, and building perimeters.
Key Features

Key Capabilities
ColorVu Low-Light Technology
Combines an ultra-large F1.0 aperture and advanced sensor hardware to record vivid, full-colour video even in dark nighttime environments.
Adaptive Smart Hybrid Lighting
Utilizes invisible IR illumination for discrete surveillance, automatically engaging warm white light when targets are detected to ensure full-colour detail.
AcuSense Human & Vehicle Analytics
Powered by deep learning, it accurately distinguishes human subjects and vehicles from non-threatening motion like wind, leaves, or animals.
Integrated Audio Recording
Built-in high-sensitivity microphone captures environmental sound, offering important situational context and supplementary security footage.
130dB True WDR Dynamic Range
Maintains balanced, clear images in difficult lighting environments with extreme contrast or high backlighting, such as glass doorways and windows.
Weatherproof & Vandal-Resistant Housing
Combines IP67 weather sealing with IK10 impact resistance, offering durable defense against physical impacts and harsh weather elements.

Choosing the Right Model
Choose this model if…
- You require ultra-high 8MP 4K video resolution and full-colour night recording.
- You need a durable dome form factor with IK10 impact protection.
- You want Smart Hybrid Light that maintains covert IR until motion occurs.
- You require AcuSense target classification to eliminate false motion alerts.
- You want built-in audio recording capabilities via integrated microphone.
Choose a different model if…
- You need active deterrence (strobe & speaker siren). Select a Hikvision Live-Guard Live-Strobe turret or bullet camera.
- You need a 180-degree panoramic continuous view. Consider a Hikvision ColorVu Dual-Lens Panorama model.
- You prefer an exposed turret form factor without a glass dome bubble. Choose a standard Hikvision ColorVu turret camera.
FAQs
How does Smart Hybrid Light operate at night?
Under normal conditions, the camera operates quietly using invisible IR illumination. Once an AcuSense event (human or vehicle) is detected, the camera automatically switches on warm white light to capture full-colour details.
Does this camera include a built-in speaker for two-way talk?
No. This model features an integrated microphone for audio listening and recording, but does not include an onboard speaker for two-way audio broadcasting.
What does the IK10 rating signify?
The IK10 rating indicates the highest standard of physical impact protection, making the camera resilient against mechanical impact, attempts at vandal damage, or accidental strikes.
Can I record video without a standalone NVR?
Yes. The camera includes an onboard MicroSD slot supporting cards up to 512 GB, enabling standalone local recording and remote management via the Hik-Connect mobile application.
What wide-angle view does the 2.8mm lens offer?
The 2.8mm fixed lens provides an expansive horizontal field of view (approx. 108°), making it well suited for capturing wide outdoor spaces, driveways, or store entrances.
