Hikvision DS-2DF9C435IHS-DLW (T2) 4MP PTZ with 500m IR

An advanced PTZ camera with full-color, long range and auto-tracking

DS-2DF9C435IHS-DLW is an advanced PTZ camera with Hikvision's DarkFighterX dual-sensor technology, delivering true full-color images around the clock—even in very low-light conditions.
With 35× optical zoom, up to 500 meters of IR range and a suite of intelligent features, the camera is designed for professional installations where range, image quality and analytics are critical. It's ideal for large areas, critical infrastructure, ports, roads, forests, tunnels and other locations where maximum coverage and long-distance detail are required.

Dual-sensor full-color technology

The camera uses two separate sensors—one for color information and one for brightness. They’re combined in real time into a single image, providing much more accurate colors and detail than standard cameras. This technology lets the camera deliver true colors even where other cameras have long since switched to black-and-white.

Full-color images in extremely low light

With an F1.6 aperture and a sensor capable of reaching 0.0005 Lux, the camera can retain color in near-dark conditions. In environments with no light, the IR illuminator activates automatically so the camera continues to provide usable footage in all conditions.

35× optical zoom for long distances

The camera offers 35× zoom, allowing it to cover huge areas while preserving sharp detail. People and vehicles several hundred meters away can still be seen clearly. That makes the camera particularly suitable for perimeters, long road stretches, ports or large open areas.

IR range up to 500 meters

With powerful, intelligent IR illumination the camera can see up to approx. 500 meters in total darkness. The IR adjusts automatically to zoom and distance to avoid blown-out images and ensure even lighting.

Optical defog for foggy and challenging weather

The optical defog feature produces clearer images in fog, smoke or dusty environments. Unlike digital defog, optical defog adjusts the actual light processing in the lens, giving far better results in harsh weather.

Auto-tracking

The camera can automatically detect and follow people or vehicles moving in its field of view. The new auto-tracking 3.0 system, based on Deep Learning, is much more stable and accurate, and can maintain focus even when the target changes direction or is partially obscured.

Perimeter protection with intelligent filtering

The camera can monitor line crossing, intrusion, region entry and region exit. Deep Learning filters allow it to ignore everything except people and vehicles, significantly reducing false alarms from animals, leaves or reflections.

Face capture and vehicle detection

The camera can detect and select faces, track them in the frame and send the best snapshots to a recorder or VMS. It can also identify vehicles and extract details like plate number, model and color. These features require compatible Hikvision systems for full database and search functionality.

EIS image stabilization

There’s a built-in gyroscope that enhances electronic image stabilization. That gives a steadier picture in wind, vibration and other situations where the camera might otherwise shake.

Rain-sensing auto-wiper

The camera includes an automatic windshield wiper that activates when it detects rain or water droplets. This keeps the view clear without manual cleaning.

Top-tier PTZ performance

360-degree pan, a tilt range from -25° to 90° and very high speeds make it easy to follow events in real time. The camera can move up to 280°/s in pan and 250°/s in tilt, and features proportional zoom so movements are adapted to the zoom level.

Rugged construction and weather protection

The camera is IP67-rated and can withstand harsh weather, dust and rain. It's built for operation between -40 and +70 °C, making it suitable for Nordic climates and extreme environments. It also includes lightning and surge protection.

Local storage and network support

The camera supports microSD cards up to 256 GB for local recording. It can also send data to NAS, NVR or a control center and supports ONVIF S/G/T for integration with most systems. Up to 20 users can view live video simultaneously.
