Does anyone any TVI camera manufacture that are NOT Hik?

I saw from another post that Digital Watchdog might be an alternative. Would like to have went with Hanwha but they are not TVI.

Full Disclosure: Hanwha Employee here.

Our analog stuff does TVI/CVI/AHD. Example: Hanwha HCV-6080R

Do all your current models support that, or just some?

All current models starting with an H support cvi and tvi. 

Note that 4mp models are limited to 2mp resolution in cvi and tvi modes

So is this brochure inaccurate or out-of-date? I believe it shows most are not CVI, even some that start with H:

I'm seeing mixed information on this as well. In addition I had factory reps tell me that they do NOT support TVI. 

I'm confused. But would really like to firm it up before we order equipment and are stuck with them.

So, the brochure you refer to is somewhat out of date (12-2017).

That being said  I see that some of the models don't appear to support cvi or tvi. 

The 2mp h 6xxx series Support multi protocols, with the exception of the ptz and zoom box.

The 4mp 7xxx series look to be ahd and sd only. I'll inquire on Monday to confirm.

Fyi, the hcb-6001 does support cvi and tvi.

There also some Dahua HD over Coax cameras that are multisignal, so they support CVI/TVI/AHD and analoge.

I believe DW uses AHD format.

Philosophical question:

If both the camera and the DVR are TVI/CVI/AHD, what will they converse in?

I believe whatever you set the camera for. I think most modern HD-Analog cameras are multi-format set by either dip switches and/or software. I also think the DVR will auto detect cvi, ahd or tvi.

I recently did an install using AVTech TVI cameras. The cameras did a nice job for the job and the price point of the cameras.
