It's great.... a real game changer in my night time security. Works great! There is a street light in my cul-de-sac that provides plenty of ambient lighting. I do not use the light on the front of the camera.... excellent visibility to about 350 ft. If long term reliablity holds up, I see replacing all of my cameras with low light color in the future.
Just installed a new Turret Style Low Light 4K Color Camera....

Long term reliability should be the same as any other hikvision camera, which is excellent and you have nellys great support on top of that. Might as well upgrade now.
I think the Hikvision model number is DS-2CD2347G1-LU and the Nelly's model number is NSC-NITECOLOR-DM2

That's this one then : Review of the Hikvision OEM model IPC-T2347G-LU 'ColorVu' IP CCTV camera.
How do you rate them against the Hikvision ColorVu series -
DS-2CE72HFT-F
DS-2CE72HFT-F28
Are the Hikvision ones better?

Apologies as I got a little mixed! Wasn't intending to duplicate. I'll delete the other post!
Sorry - you are right. I got a little mixed up.
I meant in comparison to DS-2CD2347G1-L(U)|Pro Series (EasyIP)|Hikvision
I saw a video review from DVS of the Hikvision (the one with the link above) but it's hard to appreciate if it is at par or better than the NSC-NITECOLOR-DM2's review. I think Nelly's used a pretty good setting to show the true power of ColourVu capability in extremely low light conditions. Is there any possibility to replicate similar low light conditions and test for DS-2CD2347G1-L(U).
Also I believe NSC-NITECOLOR-DM2 isn't available in the UK!

No. Nellys rebrands the hik. Just like a hundred other companies. Hik is the oem.

There are a few comparative reviews for this model.
Here's one :
Review of the Hikvision OEM model IPC-T2347G-LU 'ColorVu' IP CCTV camera.
This is a user review of the Hikvision OEM model IPC-T2347G-LU 'ColorVu' IP CCTV camera. The IPC-T2347G-LU is one of a new-generation of large sensor, high-definition, ultra-low light IP cameras from Hikvision. One of it's main claims is the ability to operate in colour in near dark conditions...
I got two of them and they are great. The night vision is insane. Most houses on my street have little PAR20 up lights out front and about half the people on the street turn them on at night. It almost looks like a slightly overcast day at noon but only at midnight. I had two of Nelly's 202-BT bullet cameras with IR. Not even close to a comparison at night. Very happy with them so far. And as a bonus, they have sound! Thanks for the help on this guys.
I finally got these - DS-2CD2347G1-LU .
For some reason I don't get the audio stream in the playback. The camera configuration is set as follows:
Video Type = Video&Audio
Audio input = 100 (max)
I can hear the camera audio in live view but I can't hear anything in playback.
Any suggestions?! Not sure what setting I am missing here

I installed 3 Extreme Low Light IP POE Weatherproof Turret Cameras (NSC-NITECOLOR-DM2) six months ago. I placed a weak dusk to dawn solar powered light adjacent to one of cameras; the night time video looks really good. Daytime video is nearly equal to my 4k turrets. If I were starting from scratch, I would install NSC-NITECOLOR-DM2 all around.
