I need to do a straight swap for a Hik camera i got a company to install in 2017.
Is anyone able to help me find a replacement for that camera.

I also want to try and install a camera myself. It's right next to the monitor so only needs a couple of metres to run.

Any advice would be amazing as I am not technically minded.

I have attatced the photos of the equipment I have.

Thanks for any help

Hi @mif1

Below is the only Hikvision analog 2MP VF Dome model we are aware of.

DS-2CE5AD0T-VPIT3F(C) 2MP Vandal Manual Varifocal Dome Camera

It doesn't look like Hikvision produces any 2MP analog cameras with motorised varifocal lenses, so a manual VF lens is probably going to be the only option.

As technology has improved and more 5MP & 8MP analog cameras have been released, it looks like Hikvision has reduced the number of 2MP models they offer.

Unfortunately, due to the age of the DVR you have, it will only support up to 2MP resolution.

We primarily work with IP network cameras, so our knowledge of the Hikvision TurboHD analog range is limited.

Other forum users might be able to recommend other options.
 
Thanks for your help

I will buy that camera as a replacement :)
