This range covers ten 8MP IP cameras. 8MP (8 megapixels) means 4K, 3840 x 2160 pixels, so you can see more detail when you zoom into recorded footage. Bodies are mostly turret, with two bullet models.
How to choose
- Lens: the 2.8mm models, such as the DS-2CD2085G1-I and the black DS-2CD2387G3, give a wide view that suits a room or garden. The DS-2CD2H83G0-IZS has a motorised varifocal lens, so you can adjust the view after mounting.
- Low light: ColorVu models include the DS-2CD2387G3-LIS2UY/SL, DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU/SL and DS-2CD2T87G2H-LISU/SL. The DS-2CD2085G1-I is a DarkFighter model.
- Sound: the DS-2CD1383G2-LIU is listed with a microphone.
- Wide coverage: the dual lens stitched turret joins two views into one wide-angle picture.
- Weather: the DS-2CD2H83G0-IZS and DS-2CD2085G1-I are IP67 rated, meaning dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion.
What else you need
Most models here are PoE (Power over Ethernet), so one network cable carries power and video. You will need a recorder or PoE switch with enough ports and power budget. Check that the recorder accepts 8MP streams. Higher resolution fills drives faster, so size storage accordingly.
8MP — frequently asked questions
