4MP TandemVu 180° PTZ DS-2SF8C442MXS-DLW(24F0)(P3) 300m IR 42X Zoom

Overview

The Hikvision DS-2SF8C442MXS-DLW(24F0)(P3) is a TandemVu 180° quad-panoramic + PTZ multi-sensor camera — 4 fixed-lens panoramic cameras (stitched 180° view) + 1 PTZ DarkFighter dome. Four fixed lenses stitch together a continuous 180° panoramic view across the entire scene; the integrated PTZ dome simultaneously zooms in on any target up to 42× optical magnification. Ideal for forecourts, large car parks, town-centre installations and any site where you need both 'whole scene at all times' situational awareness AND detailed PTZ tracking.

DarkFighter ultra-low-light tier preserves image quality down to 0.001 lux on both the panoramic and PTZ sensors. AcuSenseHikvision AcuSense NVR Range 2026: Sizing Guide AI runs on-camera with human / vehicle classification. Smart Tracking automatically follows moving targets that cross the 180° panoramic field of view — the PTZ dome zooms to keep the subject centred and detailed. Integrated wiper keeps the optics clear in rain and dust.

Pan range: 0° to 360° (continuous). Tilt: -20° to 90° (auto-flip). Pan and tilt speeds are user-configurable with preset patrols, scheduled tours and event-triggered movements. H.265+ / H.265 / H.264+ / H.264 / MJPEG compression. ONVIF Profile S/G/T conformant; supports Hikvision Hik-Connect P2P, Hik-Central, iVMS-4200 and plug-in-free web access.
