Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ — 8MP 4K TiOC PRO WizColor AcuPick Active Deterrence Turret
The Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is the PRO step-up of Dahua's 8MP TiOC line — same red/blue strobe, siren and voice deterrence chain as the standard 3849, but built around a 1/1.8" CMOS sensor and an extraordinary F1.0 aperture . Translation: the PRO gathers more than 2.5× as much light as the standard 3849 and resolves usable colour down to 0.0008 lux — a 3.75× improvement that produces clean, low-noise 4K colour footage on moonless suburban streets, in undercover carparks and across long dark driveways where the standard model would need to fall back to IR.
Combined with WizColor full-colour night vision, AcuPick attribute target search, SMD 4.0 false-alarm filtering, face detection (full image) , and Dahua's latest AI Coding (≥25% additional compression efficiency), the PRO is the camera to specify for premium residential frontages, commercial perimeters and any site where image quality at night is the deciding factor. Available in White (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ) and Black (DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK). Australian stock with 3-year warranty.

Why Choose the Dahua DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ in Australia
The PRO is for installers and customers who refuse to compromise on night-time image quality. A larger 1/1.8" sensor, an F1.0 aperture and Dahua's newest WizColor illumination together deliver clean colour 4K at light levels where most cameras have long fallen back to grainy black-and-white. Combined with the full TiOC PRO active-deterrence chain, AcuPick AI and face-detection metadata, this is the camera Australian integrators reach for on premium homes, perimeters, commercial frontages and high-value loading docks.
1/1.8″ Sensor — A Genuine Image-Quality Upgrade
The PRO swaps the standard 3849's 1/2.7" sensor for a much larger 1/1.8" CMOS . Bigger pixels means more light per pixel, lower noise, higher dynamic range and noticeably better colour fidelity — especially in dawn, dusk and mixed-light conditions.
F1.0 Aperture — 2.5× More Light Than F1.6
Dahua's largest aperture in the WizSense 3-Series. F1.0 lets in more than 2.5× the light of the standard 3849's F1.6 lens — the single biggest factor in why this camera produces clean colour where others can't.
0.0008 Lux Colour · WizColor Full Colour
Minimum colour illumination drops to 0.0008 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux on the standard) — usable full-colour footage on a moonless suburban street with nothing but distant streetlight. WizColor warm-light LED can then take it the rest of the way.
TiOC PRO Active Deterrence — Strobe + Siren + Voice
Same proven TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain: red/blue strobe, on-board siren and custom voice broadcast fire the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle — no operator, no extra hardware required.
AcuPick + Face Detection (Full Image)
AcuPick attribute search runs with a 5-Series NVR, and the PRO additionally supports full-image face detection — generating per-event face metadata that makes incident review faster on every search.
AI Coding — 25%+ Less Storage for the Same 4K
Dahua's AI Coding analyses the scene and dedicates bitrate only to objects of interest (people, vehicles) — delivering ≥25% additional compression efficiency over standard Smart H.265+. Longer retention on the same NVR drive.

IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Zones
Define a virtual line across the driveway or a no-go zone around the shed — get a notification (and trigger the deterrence chain) only when a human or vehicle actually crosses it.
Two-Way Audio & Custom Voice
Dual built-in microphones and an on-board speaker support live two-way talk via DMSS or a Dahua NVR. Pre-loaded plus uploadable voice files let you record a site-specific warning in your own voice.
Edge Recording — MicroSD up to 512 GB
On-camera MicroSD records days of 4K footage independently of the NVR — a critical redundancy layer if the network drops, the recorder is stolen or power is cut.
Lens Distortion Correction (LDC)
The PRO adds on-camera LDC — automatic correction of the slight barrel distortion natural to wide-angle 2.8 mm lenses. Straight walls stay straight on playback, especially important for evidential footage.
Cyber-Hardened by Design
Trusted boot, HTTPS, 802.1x, IP/MAC filtering, X.509 certificate import and syslog — the same enterprise hardening Dahua deploys on government and critical-infrastructure cameras.
Plug & Play + Third-Party VMS
Drops into any Dahua NVR via plug-and-play, and works over ONVIF Profile S/G/T with Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris and Synology Surveillance Station.
Pair with a Dahua 5-Series NVR for the Full AcuPick Experience
SMD 4.0, IVS rules, two-way audio and the full TiOC PRO deterrence chain all run on-camera — they work with any Dahua AI NVR, or even an ONVIF third-party recorder. But to unlock AcuPick — attribute-based human and vehicle target search, similar-image cross-camera tracking and AI-accelerated playback — you need a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR . With a PRO-spec 4K camera the AcuPick payoff is even bigger: search jumps that would take an hour on a 6MP fleet finish in seconds, and per-event face metadata lands directly in the NVR's smart-search index.

3849 PRO vs 3849 Standard — Is the PRO Worth the Upgrade?
Both cameras share the same chassis, the same TiOC 3.0 deterrence chain, the same AcuPick AI and the same Smart Dual-Light system. The PRO's upgrades are concentrated in the parts that matter at night and at long range — the sensor, the lens, the AI engine and the image processing. If the camera's main job is to capture clean colour evidence in low light, or to feed AcuPick face-detection metadata into a 5-Series NVR, the PRO is the right call. If the site has plenty of ambient light or the budget is tight, the standard 3849 still does the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "PRO" mean on the 3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ?
PRO designates the higher-tier hardware variant in the 3849 line. Compared to the standard 3849, the PRO uses a larger 1/1.8" sensor , an F1.0 aperture (vs F1.6), 2 GB RAM (vs 512 MB), adds AI Coding , face detection and Lens Distortion Correction , and produces clean colour image at 0.0008 Lux (vs 0.003 Lux).
Is the PRO worth the extra cost over the standard 3849?
For sites where night-time image quality is critical — dark driveways, undercover carparks, commercial perimeters at the edge of street lighting — yes, the F1.0 aperture and 1/1.8" sensor make a visible difference. For well-lit sites, the standard 3849 delivers most of the same TiOC 3.0 capability at a lower price.
What is WizColor?
WizColor is Dahua's branding for full-colour night vision powered by a high-CRI warm-light LED combined with a large-aperture lens and high-sensitivity sensor. The 3849H-AS-PV-PRO is one of the WizSense 3-Series cameras that carries the WizColor designation.
Do I need a special NVR for AcuPick?
Yes — AcuPick target search requires a compatible Dahua 5-Series AcuPick NVR . The TiOC PRO deterrence chain, SMD 4.0, IVS, face detection and two-way audio all work on any Dahua AI NVR. Shop AcuPick NVRs here →
Does the PRO have face recognition?
The PRO supports face detection (full image) — it detects and indexes faces as metadata for fast search and event tagging. It does not perform face recognition (matching against a watchlist) — that requires a dedicated face-recognition camera or a Dahua face-DB server.
Will the camera deter intruders automatically?
Yes. The TiOC PRO deterrence chain fires the instant SMD 4.0 confirms a human or vehicle inside the rule zone — strobe lights, siren and voice broadcast all run on-camera, 24/7, without any operator, NVR command or mobile-app interaction.
What is the difference between the White and Black versions?
Specifications are identical. DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ is white; DH-IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ-BLK is black. Choose black for dark eaves and charcoal fascia; white for traditional cream/render walls.
Will it keep recording if the NVR or internet goes down?
Yes. The on-board MicroSD slot accepts cards up to 512 GB and records 4K footage independently of the NVR. The PRO also supports dual-power backup (PoE + 12 V DC) so the camera keeps running if one power source fails.
Is the camera suitable for Australian outdoor conditions?
Yes. It is rated IP67 and −40 °C to +60 °C — comfortably covering every Australian climate from a Hobart winter to a Karratha summer. The metal housing and ±30% wide-voltage tolerance also handle dirty mains power common on rural sites.
Does it work with Hikvision NVRs or third-party VMS?
Basic recording, streaming and motion work over ONVIF Profile S/G/T on most third-party NVRs and VMS platforms (Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha WAVE, ExacqVision, Blue Iris, Synology). However, TiOC deterrence, AcuPick, SMD 4.0 and two-way audio require a Dahua NVR or DMSS to be triggered correctly.
What is the warranty and where is it serviced?
This camera ships with a 3-year Australian Dahua warranty , serviced back-to-base by Dahua Australia. CCTV Guru handles the entire RA process and provides Australian-based technical support for the life of the product.
Do you ship Australia-wide and is stock genuine?
Yes — Australian stock from authorised Dahua Australia channels (not parallel imports). We ship Australia-wide every business day with same-day dispatch on orders placed before 2 pm AEST to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, Darwin and regional addresses.
