No there’s no 4K ColorVu in the IP models. They’re the new gen 2 ColorVu models that include the AcuSense functionality as well, so you no longer have to choose one technology or the other.
Ahh OK thanks confused myself with so much reading yesterday
I was looking at this new 4K bullet offering
DS-2CD2087G2-L(U)
Hikvision DS-2CD2087G2-L(U) 4 K ColorVu Fixed Bullet Network Camera
I was just about to buy a number of these cameras for my network DS-2CD2347G2-L(U)
Are these new colorvu 2.0 ones an upgraded version so worth waiting for ?

Edit: I'm completely wrong (it had to happen eventually!). Just had the mailshot from Hikvision now regarding the 4K ColorVu Bullet which also has AcuSense. Shame they don't do it in a turret.Ahh OK thanks confused myself with so much reading yesterday

Dahua has a 4K one turret. You know 4K can't be as good working as the 4mp at low light.
I saw a review about how the 4mp was the perfect number for the ColorVu to work well at night and they even tried 5MP before which wasn't as good, but it would be nice to have 4k daytime even if night viewing was no better than the 4mb ones.
So the new ColorVu 2.0 will they replace these DS-2CD2347G2-L(U) ?
I don't want to buy if there's something around the corner next gen.

Yes the turret in 4k was what I was interested in myself. I think it's probably going to be overkill for my use though.
Is there a model number for these Coney ? I'm not sure of the model numbers I am already looking at are the same as they have a GEN2 code in the product code, I can already purchase these in the UK like this DS-2CD2347G2-L(U)
The ones you have received are they a newer version as they have only just been released like this news wire Hikvision releases ColorVu 2.0 cameras now with 4K and varifocal options ?
thankyou

I'm in similar boat as @jasona, looking forward to more info on new turret model numbers and low-light 4k performance from @coney27, and looking to buy 3-4 ColorVu turrets for home system, wondering if I should wait for 2.0 variants. I'm going to need these within a month, so if it's a situation where I'll need to buy from China and update firmware to get them working, I'll probably just order the previous 4MP versions which from my research so far seem to inspire awe in every reviewer.
The ones I got in are the DS-2CD2347G2-LU.
These are brand new and appear to have only been officially released in the EU. This is the newest, second generation of ColorVu which now include Acusense. My manufacturing date for all 4 cameras are October of 2020.

Thanks Coney
That would make sense for what I'm seeing in the UK where I can pick these up at the moment. The slight worry I had was that they don't say ColorVu 2.0 anywhere but the G2 is in the product code so I'm assuming Gen2 = ColorVu 2.0 ?
Hikvision doesn't use the term ColorVu 2.0. And yes the G2 in the model name means second generation.

Yes I think they used to as per their press release in October but they have since dropped the term

Ahh OK good to know so it looks like I'm safe to go ahead an order so long as I get the Gen2
@timblaktu looks like they are the latest ones
Thanks for your help all guys
I was just testing out the lowest shutter speed at 1/3rd with no LEDs and no ambient light. Apparently my property is haunted.

Haha I was wondering what that was for a second, I'm assuming at standard shutter speed the quality is a lot better

Thanks everyone. From what I can tell, none of the product literature for this model indicates Accusense or anything actually new. Does anyone know what's actually different and gen 2?
EDIT: I see now comparing to the G1 product literature that theG2 has 130dB dynamic range compared to the G1s 120dB. I assume there's some hardware reason for this.
As I am in the states I assume I'd need to order the gen2 model from a supplier in the UK? Any recommendations?
