Great advice. Thanks. Just wondering what additional benefit might be gained by having a "motorised" camera and what circumstances they are best suited to? Do Hikvision's motorised cameras just provide a zoom facility or are they capable of PTZ? Any chance you could do a video on the subject please?
Assuming you’ve managed to look into this by now and found your answer; if not I’ll give you a brief low down. We rarely fit motorised as we barely find any use for them. The only situation we use them is when a camera needs to be mounted in a specific location, but the object it needs to see is far away. Instead of using a larger lens we used a motorised camera to zoom in and get the best viewing angle for the specific object if that makes sense. Motorised cameras only have an optical zoom function, no ptz control.
Hi mate, depends how good an installer you get. Parts at trade price comes to £620, including 4ch NVR, 1tb hdd, x4 4MP IP colourvus (G2-LU), and everything else like cable etc. We install everything with no cables on show taking time to hide wiring in cavities. Our total package cost comes to £1006. We guarantee the system for 6 years, this includes all parts and labour cost. If you’re looking for a company I’d look at their previous work, ask them how they run all of their wiring, what guarantees do they give along with aftercare service.
@@HikVisionGuru that’s really helpful. What sort of price extra would you be looking at with a hikvision modular intercom with the camera and keypad and indoor screen. Rough price for the parts and basic install. Many thanks. I already got quoted something stupid for the cameras in the region of 3k so I want to make sure the intercom from another company is reasonably priced
@@Horizon301. blimey 3k, making some nice money aren’t they! I mean of course prices can differ depending how much work is involved with wiring/length of cable etc, but 3k is a bit much! In regards to intercom is it simply just a modular intercom with built in camera and push button linked to a screen or is it linked to gates or something?
@@HikVisionGuru yes the modular intercom, camera unit and keypad with the indoor station. Linked to gates. The gate company for example are offering to fit it if I can’t find a good price for it all combined. I think it would probably be a wireless link to the house
sir i want purchase dark fighter 4 mp ip camera dome and bulete and and 6 TB HDD AND k2 series NVR so please can me sujection about it and where to but it
Guess it depends where about’s you are in the world, we never have issues with bugs/flies in our country. Sometimes the lights on colourvus don’t always come on, depending if there is enough ambient light in the area already in which case they wouldn’t attract anything. But I can see them being slightly problematic in some environments/countries
@@HikVisionGuru I agree with your statement. What I found with previous installation the incests would actually sit on the lens blocking the image. I'm trying to point out like you said about it being environmental. Depending on the brightness off LED light more or less it will attract but truly they awesome cameras. Hikvision really does give you the best price to performance. Are the Acusense DVRs(analogue) truly AI or pixelated analytics ?
Thank you for this golden information.

Excellent video 👏. Keep up the good work
What sort of price is normal for a 4 camera set up with the colour vu IP cameras, including install?

Hello Pankaj, I assume you have managed to sort this out by now?
Reolink any good?
If you’re looking for a proper system, stick with HikVision.
Only problem with colourVu it attracts bugs at night otherwise great cameras

ADI do NOT sell to the end user. Trade only.
I know many non trade people who purchase in store with a cash account.
