Dahua DH-IPC-HFW3866TP-ZAS-AUS — 8MP 4K Motorised Vari-Focal Bullet, 60m IR
A straightforward, well-priced 4K workhorse. There is no warm light and no siren here — this camera puts its budget into the things that matter for evidence: a 4K sensor, a 2.7-13.5 mm motorised lens with 5x optical reach, and four infrared LEDs pushing to 60 metres. Dahua rates it at 289.7 metres detection at full telephoto, which makes it a genuinely long-range option for the money.
Core Technology
- 4K at 3840 x 2160 — Full ultra-high-definition recording at 25/30 fps, giving you the detail to crop into archived footage and still identify what you are looking at.
- 2.7-13.5 mm Motorised Lens — Remote zoom and focus from 109 degrees wide down to 30 degrees tele, so one camera adapts to whatever the site turns out to need.
- 289 m Detection at Tele — Published DORI figures of 289.7 m detect and 57.9 m recognise at 13.5 mm put long approaches genuinely within reach.
- 60 m Infrared — Four IR LEDs with Smart Illumination, which modulates output so near subjects are not blown out while far ones stay lit.
- WizSense AI with Quick Pick — Human and vehicle classification on tripwire and intrusion, with Quick Pick search on a compatible AI NVR.
- Electronic Image Stabilisation — Steadies the image on mounts exposed to wind — important once you are working at the long end of the zoom.
Where It Fits
The value pick for long-range 4K coverage where deterrence features are not required: fence lines, driveways, paddock approaches, storage yards and building perimeters.
