UNIVIEW BULLET 4MP 30M IR 4MM COLORHUNTER Bullet Camera for Outdoor and Indoor CCTV

The UNIVIEW BULLET 4MP 30M IR 4MM COLORHUNTER is a bullet camera from the UNIVIEW CCTV range. It is built for continuous surveillance of entrances, car parks, yards, warehouses and building perimeters. The long, cylindrical housing of a bullet camera makes it easy to see and easy to aim, and it is a common choice for monitoring an area from a fixed position.
The product name contains several technical terms. 4MP means four megapixels, the resolution of the image sensor. 30M means a 30 metre infrared range for night viewing. IR stands for infrared, the invisible light used by the camera to see in darkness. 4MM means a 4 millimetre lens, which determines how wide the camera sees. COLORHUNTER is the model name for this version of the camera.
Key Features
- 4MP (four megapixel) image resolution for clear detail
- 30 metre infrared (IR) range for night-time recording
- 4 mm fixed lens with a wide field of view
- ColorHunter model name, indicating colour imaging in low light
- Bullet housing suited to outdoor mounting on walls, poles or brackets
- UNIVIEW brand, part of an IP camera range for network CCTV systems
Resolution and Image Quality
A 4MP sensor records more detail than a standard definition camera. This makes it easier to read number plates at a suitable distance and to recognise faces in a well-lit area close to the lens. Image quality still depends on lighting, distance, lens angle and the settings of the recorder, so it is good practice to test the camera at the actual site.
Night Viewing and Infrared
The integrated infrared illuminators allow the camera to record when there is little or no visible light. The stated range is 30 metres. Objects closer to the camera are usually lit more evenly, while distant objects at the edge of the range can appear darker. Glass, walls and bright surfaces close to the lens can reflect infrared light, so the mounting position should be chosen with care.
Lens and Field of View
The 4 mm lens gives a wide field of view. This suits open areas such as yards, driveways and wide corridors, where one camera needs to cover a broad space. For narrower views, such as a single door or a long, thin path, a longer lens may be more suitable. Check the lens and angle against the area you need to watch before installing.
Colour Imaging
The ColorHunter name indicates that the camera is designed to show colour in low-light conditions, where many cameras switch to black and white. Colour can help when identifying vehicles, clothing or other details. The exact low-light behaviour and minimum illumination should be confirmed in the manufacturer specification before the camera is committed to a project.
Typical Uses
- Monitoring car parks, driveways and entrances
- Perimeter surveillance of yards, storage areas and loading bays
- Outdoor cover for shops, offices and small businesses
- Night-time monitoring of rear access routes and side passages
- Expanding an existing UNIVIEW or IP-based CCTV system
Installation Considerations
A bullet camera is normally mounted on a wall, pole or bracket and angled towards the area to be watched. Use a mounting position that keeps the camera protected from direct weather and avoids pointing the lens straight at strong light sources. Check the cable route and power arrangement before fitting, and plan how the camera will connect to the recorder or network switch.
Because this listing describes the camera in general terms, please confirm details such as power requirements, operating temperature, protection rating and firmware support with the supplier before ordering. For larger systems, a site survey helps to decide the number of cameras, their positions and the recording settings needed.
Summary
The UNIVIEW BULLET 4MP 30M IR 4MM COLORHUNTER offers 4MP resolution, a 30 metre infrared range and a 4 mm lens in a classic bullet housing. It is a practical choice for outdoor and indoor CCTV where clear daytime images and reliable night-time recording are needed over a wide area.
