    It has to be good in low light and not just the IR, that's the whole point of the 1/1.8" sensor. Btw here's a night video with movement

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    Remember this is pitch black and not a full res image. Extremely impressive if you ask me.

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    IQ at night looks great, especially when you compare it to the 4mp hikvision using its own IR only.

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    Why would the image be crap? Without a doubt, it will perform better at night than any other reasonably priced camera. There is already a couple of night sample videos from the imx178/3516a that proves this. The only one which may beat it is the imx185, but it's around the same price and only...

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    I've seen these pictures already and they're not enough to reach any kind of conclusion. The 'sony 222' 2mp certainly does not look clearer at night however. Can't make any conclusion on day since none of them are fullsize photos. The other 2mp is also a low light camera which is around the...

    SMTSEC 5MP Low LIght 1/2" Sony IMX178 Dome

    How can you say it's not that impressive when you don't know what the scene actually looked like to the naked eye or how it compares to other cameras?

    Buying 50 4k hikvisions - chose Chinese or english version?

    Maybe its just me, but if you actually need 48 of these type of cameras, then I'd probably choose buying from China at $300 a piece instead of $800. Even after shipping costs you'd be saving around 20k. I'd take the gamble and use google translate to set them up. Unless you can get a really good...

    Buying 50 4k hikvisions - chose Chinese or english version?

    Well, it would of course be safer to buy locally, but you will pay for the comfort. I've contacted a seller on taobao whom I've purchased from before... they can install multi language firmware on the Chinese model DS-2CD4185F-IZ for $430. Price negotiable

    Only the more popular models get the hacked treatment. You will only find Chinese 4k cams, or original English versions.
