    IPC-HDW4421C vs IPC-HDW4421S

    Is there any difference between the two cameras? (IPC-HDW4421C and IPC-HDW4421S)? Other than the visual difference in the IR and lens arrangement. I've looked at the spec sheets and they look identical. But there is a significant price difference between the 2 on Ebay and Aliexpress. What am...

    USB, NAS or Internal HD

    Yeah after thinking about it, it would be easier and cheaper to just add a 2tb internal drive.

    Portable Monitor with BI?

    I wouldn't over complicate things. Just go to a yard sale, on eBay or craigslist and get you a cheap 15in flat screen monitor. You could prob find one for 20 bucks. They're not heavy. And other than the cables dangling they are quite portable.

    Best way to view cameras on a remotely connected TV

    I use a wireless HDMI transmitter on my TV. IR blaster to change the tv HDMI input. I use it to take the tv signal from a bedroom tv to a TV in my detached workshop. I guess don't see why you couldn't use it on a PC to do the same.

    USB, NAS or Internal HD

    I want to get my recordings off my main computer HD. I'm looking at a 4tb drive. (I have 3 cameras. My plan is to have 8-10 cameras when I'm done). Anyway, I'm trying to decide if a second internal 4tb HD is better than say a WD MyBook 4tb NAS. Hard drives are cheap. But I like the ability to...

    Trim ring removal Hikvison DS-2CD2335-I

    I could not see the IR lit (that faint pinkish glow) when I put the camera in a dark room. I've set up lots of cameras on my network. It's just a plain old home network (10.0.0.X). No firewalls on the PC. I gave it nearly a half hour. It never came on that I could tell. No activity lights...

    Trim ring removal Hikvison DS-2CD2335-I

    Plugged camera into my switch, the POE light comes on but no other lights on the switch. Camera is a no show on the network. I've scanned with hikvisions tool and AngryIP scanner. I've tried different cables, switch ports and the AC adapter. Nothing. I've put lots of stuff on networks. I've...

    Trim ring removal Hikvison DS-2CD2335-I

    ah HA! I got it. I don't see this going well if i ever have to uninstall the camera while on a ladder! Way harder than it should ever be.

    Trim ring removal Hikvison DS-2CD2335-I

    OK, first time poster. I've been lurking here for a while though. But I am having a helluva time with a camera installation. I simply can not figure out how to remove the trim ring on the Hikvision DS-2CD2335-I turret camera. I've read the instructions. I've googled it. YouTube...
