The Hikvision DS-2CD1743G2-LIZU (2.8-12mm) is a high-performance 4MP Smart Hybrid Light Varifocal Dome Network Camera. It is designed for users who need a balance between broad area coverage and the ability to zoom in on specific details without physically moving the camera.
Key Features & Specifications
- 4MP High-Definition Imaging: Captures 2560 × 1440 resolution video, providing the clarity needed to identify faces and license plates at a distance.
- Motorized Varifocal Lens (2.8-12mm): This is the standout feature. You can adjust the zoom and focus remotely via the Hik-Connect app or NVR. Use 2.8mm for a wide 100° view of a parking lot, or zoom to 12mm (approx. 30° view) to focus on a specific gate or entrance.
- Smart Hybrid Light: A "best of both worlds" lighting system. It uses Infrared (IR) for discreet night monitoring but automatically switches to White Light when a person or vehicle is detected, capturing the event in full color.
- AcuSense Technology (AI): Built-in deep learning algorithms classify humans and vehicles. This significantly reduces false alarms triggered by pets, moving trees, or heavy rain.
- Vandal & Weather Resistant: Rated IK08 (Vandal-proof) to protect against physical impact and IP67 (Weatherproof) to withstand the heavy tropical rains of Nigeria.
- Audio & Storage: Includes a built-in microphone for real-time audio security and supports a massive 512GB microSD card for standalone recording.
Why Choose the Varifocal Lens over Fixed Lens?
While fixed-lens cameras (like 2.8mm or 4mm models) are cheaper, they cannot be adjusted after installation. The DS-2CD1743G2-LIZU is superior because if your security needs change—for example, you move your gate or change your storefront layout—you can simply re-zoom the camera through the software rather than re-mounting it.
