5MP IP CCTV Cameras — ColorVu & Hybrid Light Turrets
6 products in our Cameras range — trade-grade UK stock from CCTV Line.
5MP IP turret cameras
This range covers six 5MP-class fixed turret cameras built around IP output, including ColorVu and Smart Hybrid Light variants with integrated audio and PoE. All are turret-format, fixed-lens units suited to entrances, perimeters and general site coverage.
What "5MP" means here
5MP delivers more detail per frame than 4MP or 2MP sensors, useful where you need to crop into number plates or faces without losing usability. The trade-off is higher bandwidth and storage draw per stream, so check your NVR channel budget before speccing across a whole site.
How to choose
- Colour-at-night need: ColorVu models hold colour in low light; models without ColorVu fall back to standard IR monochrome.
- Smart Hybrid Light: switches between white-light and IR illumination depending on scene conditions — check this feature against site lighting policy before specifying.
- Audio requirement: several models list built-in audio for two-way or event-driven use; confirm per SKU.
- Colour finish: black and white housings are both stocked across near-identical specs — match to existing camera runs.
- Lens: where stated, 2.8mm is fixed; verify field of view suits mounting height before ordering in volume.
Cross-check IR/WDR and IP67 ratings per exact SKU before substituting one part number for another on a job.
5MP — frequently asked questions
What resolution is a 5MP camera compared with 4MP or 2MP?
5MP sensors capture more detail per frame than 4MP or 2MP, which can help with cropping into faces or plates, though this uses more bandwidth and storage per stream.
What does ColorVu add on these cameras?
ColorVu models in this range are designed to retain colour footage in low-light conditions rather than switching to monochrome IR, per the manufacturer's stated feature set.
