It carries the same 3K CMOS sensor and F1.0 super-aperture lens as the bullet-bodied LSYE model, delivering full-colour imaging down to 0.0005 Lux with Smart Hybrid Light (IR + white light) supplementing visibility up to 40 metres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in microphone, with a pickup radius of up to 5 metres, adds audio capture to the video record, useful for reception areas, doorways, or other points where verbal context matters. This model carries a true 130dB WDR rating for handling strong backlight scenes, along with IP67-rated anti-corrosion housing for reliable outdoor durability. The 3.6mm lens gives a 90° horizontal field of view, suited to moderate-range coverage with more identification detail than a wider lens would offer at the same distance. Note the turret's tilt adjustment range (0°-75°) is narrower than a bullet camera's, reflecting its fixed dome-style mounting design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKEY BENEFITS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-colour imaging 24\/7, even in near-total darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact, low-profile turret housing suited to indoor\/covered installs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in microphone adds audio context to recorded footage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130dB true WDR handles strong backlight scenes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 anti-corrosion housing for outdoor durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3K CMOS sensor, max resolution 2960x1665\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.6mm fixed lens, FOV 90°(H) \/ 49°(V) \/ 105°(D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMin. illumination 0.0005 Lux colour (F1.0, AGC ON), 0 Lux with white light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in microphone, pickup radius up to 5m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmart\/IR\/White supplement light, up to 40m range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e130dB true WDR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 anti-corrosion rated housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurret (dome-style) form factor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIDEAL FOR\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovered outdoor areas, porches and entranceways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndoor installations wanting a low-profile camera housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSites where audio context alongside video adds evidential value\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReception areas or doorways where verbal exchanges matter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacklit scenes such as entrances facing bright exterior light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutdoor installs needing anti-corrosion housing durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModerate-range coverage needing more identification detail than a wide lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHikvision\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDS-2CE72KF3T-LSYE(3.6mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColorVu Turret Camera with Microphone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3K CMOS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2960 x 1665\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLens\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.6mm fixed, M12 mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eField of View\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90°(H) \/ 49°(V) \/ 105°(D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMin.

It uses an F1.0 super-aperture lens combined with a 3K sensor and Smart Supplement Light system, maintaining full-colour imaging down to extremely low light levels, the same technology used across Hikvision's ColorVu range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the 130dB WDR rating help with?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrue WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) helps the camera balance very bright and very dark areas within the same scene, such as a doorway facing bright daylight — 130dB is a strong figure that keeps both the bright background and shadowed foreground detail visible rather than one being over- or under-exposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow far can the built-in microphone pick up sound?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's rated for a pickup radius of up to 5 metres, suitable for capturing nearby conversations or ambient sound around an entranceway or reception point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this camera suitable for permanent outdoor mounting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — it carries an IP67 ingress protection rating with anti-corrosion housing, making it suitable for permanent outdoor installation, though covered or sheltered positioning is often preferred for turret-style cameras to protect the dome from direct rain streaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hikvision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54350164230485,"sku":"DS-2CE72KF3T-LSYE(3.6mm)","price":49.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0878\/2476\/1173\/files\/51-_-_-_-_1_ec6d2cb4-d064-4643-aca0-f228f2bf5223.webp?v=1783872633","url":"https:\/\/cctvdirectuk.co.uk\/products\/hikvision-ds-2ce72kf3t-lsye3-6mm-3k-colorvu-smart-hybrid-light-turret-camera-with-mic","provider":"CCTV DIRECT UK LTD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
