EZVIZ CS-H3c 2K Wi-Fi Smart Home Camera
- CCTV Lens Guide
- Hard Drive Size Guide
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
---|---|---|---|
2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).
Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Communications can be this easy
Enjoy two-way audio by simply using your smartphone. Or, pre-record a 10-second voice message that automatically plays upon human motion detection.
Two-Way Talk
Customizable Voice Alerts
AI algorithm for alerts that matter
The camera’s onboard AI algorithm helps distinguish and detect moving people in particular, so as to reduce insignificant alerts caused by falling leaves or flying insects. You will receive smarter notifications that matter to you.
AI-Powered Human Shape Detection
Customizable Detection Zone

A vigilant guard who works around the clock
The H3c 2K integrates EZVIZ’s beloved active defence function to provide an extra layer of protection. Upon detection of intruders, the camera will set off a loud siren and flash two spotlights⁴ to warn them away.
Protection lasts, even in harsh weathers
Thanks to its well-built camera body, the H3c 2K is IP67-rated to withstand even the toughest weather conditions – whether it’s rainy, stormy or snowy.
Smart integration, hands-free control
You can integrate the H3c 2K to your existing smart home system. Voice-enable the live viewing with “Hey Google” or “Alexa” to check what’s happening on a bigger screen.
Extra-Large, safe storage options that you can trust
You can secure your recorded videos on a local microSD card of up to 512 GB, or subscribe to EZVIZ CloudPlay for fully-encrypted cloud storage.

Enhanced viewing pleasure with smaller video files
Compared against the prevailing H.264 video compression technology, H.265 creates a more fluid viewing experience with recorded footage. Meanwhile, you won’t have to worry about large video files taking up too much of your storage space – H.265 technology can reduce their sizes by up to 50%⁵ .
We do our best to protect your data and privacy
We design the product to respectfully protect your data and privacy. You can also accept up no filming zones6 to make sure recording only happens when it's appropriate and allowed.
