UNIVIEW TURRET WISE-ISP 4MP ColorHunter 2.8mm Turret Camera
The UNIVIEW TURRET WISE-ISP 4MP ColorHunter 2.8mm is an IP turret camera from the Uniview CCTV range. It is intended for video surveillance in buildings and outdoor areas where a visible, fixed camera is preferred. Turret cameras are widely used because their compact dome housing is easy to mount and easy to aim, and the lens can be set to cover the area that matters most.
This model combines a 4 megapixel image with a 2.8 mm lens. Its model name also refers to ColorHunter, Uniview’s colour imaging technology, which aims to keep scene colour visible in low-light conditions where many cameras would switch to black and white. Colour recordings are often more useful for identifying people, vehicles and clothing, so this feature can be valuable in busy or poorly lit locations.

Lens and image quality
A 2.8 mm lens is a wide-angle option within the usual range for IP cameras. It captures a broad area from a relatively short mounting distance, which suits corridors, entrances, car parks, loading areas and rooms where one camera needs to cover a large floor space. Choosing a lens length is always a balance between width of view and the level of detail on distant objects, so the camera should be tested at the intended mounting height before final installation.
Design and installation
Turret cameras are compact and discreet, but their visible shape also makes them a deterrent. The housing can be aimed by adjusting the position of the lens inside the dome during setup. Install the camera where it has a clear view, avoid direct strong light sources behind the subject, and plan the cable route before fixing the bracket. Check the supplier datasheet for the housing rating, power method and operating temperature range before using the camera outdoors or in damp areas.
Typical uses
- Entrances, lobbies and reception areas in offices
- Shops, retail units and small commercial premises
- Schools, colleges and other educational buildings
- Warehouses, storage yards and loading bays
- Car parks and access routes
- Residential buildings and communal areas
Choosing and planning
Before buying, decide which area the camera must cover, how far the subject will be from the lens, and whether colour footage is more important than the lowest possible light level. The ColorHunter feature suits sites where colour detail matters. If you are adding this camera to an existing Uniview system, confirm that your recorder or network video management software supports the model and its network settings. The supplier listing does not give full technical specifications, so these details should be confirmed against the official documentation.
Using the article number IPC3614SB-ADF28KMC-I1 when ordering helps ensure that the correct model and lens version are supplied, which is especially important when matching cameras across a larger site.
