Overview
The Hikvision DS-2CE12UF3T-LS 4K 8MP 2.8mm ColorVuHikvision AcuSense vs ColorVu: UK Installer Guide for 2026 Smart HybridSmart Hybrid Light Light Bullet Turbo HD Camera with Mic WHITE is a 4K (3840 × 2160) Turbo HD bullet camera with an F1.0 2.8 mm lens, ColorVuHikvision AcuSense vs ColorVu: UK Installer Guide for 2026 24/7 colour imaging, Smart HybridSmart Hybrid Light Light (40 m IR / 40 m white light) and a built-in microphone. It is part of Hikvision's ColorVuHikvision AcuSense vs ColorVu: UK Installer Guide for 2026 Turbo HD range: the F1.0 aperture and 0.0005 lux sensitivity keep the picture in colour after dark, and Smart HybridSmart Hybrid Light Light records on covert IR by default, switching on the 40 m white light for full-colour images when activity is detected — or it can be set to IR-only or white-light mode. 130 dB true WDR and 3D DNR handle backlit entrances and low-light noise.
The built-in microphone records audio over the existing coax cable (audio over coax) to a compatible DVR, with no separate audio cable. It is a microphone only — there is no speaker, so the camera does not support two-way talk.
Turbo HD (HD-TVI) analogue output at up to 4K works with Hikvision Turbo HD DVRs (a 4K / 8MP DVR records the full resolution). The camera runs from a local 12 VDC supply (6 W max.) and does not take power over coax — choose the DS-2CE12UF3T-LSYE version if you need PoCWhat is Hikvision PoC or a NEMA 4X anti-corrosion finish. IP67 rated for outdoor use from -40 °C to 60 °C.
