Hi!

I've installed the DS-2CD2546G2-IS but chose the wrong lens option for the application in question.


I'd like to change the M12 lens for the 4 mm version and am a little lost what to buy exactly. Can somebody help me and point me to the right product. No problem with buying on Aliexpress if that is my only source. I'm based in Germany.

Thanks!

I've replaced several lenses in my Dahua cameras and I can't imagine that Hik would be any different.

AliExpress and Amazon have TONNES of M12 lenses of varying quality. I would suggest trying to match the F-stop as closely as possible to the original lens. And buy a "4K" lens. It's not actually 4K but the lens quality (should) is higher.

Did a quick YouTube search and there's some videos on the process.

This was the first hit:
