    B54PRO-Z4E first impression

    Assuming these were originally supplied by Andy, did you do anything other than full factory reset to allow the official Dahua firmware to install OK. Mine failed and reverted when trying Dahua firmware in the past, granted this was without a factory reset which I know technically you should...

    B54PRO-Z4E first impression

    Thank you for posting these, the effort is appreciated. Now to my eyes the Pro look better at night with the truck footage? quite a lot better, sharper, more focused. I might be tempted to try this firmware, if I can install it, historically I have not had any luck with official Dahua firmware...

    Believe this was trial and error on my part, unless I dug it out from another thread, combination I suspect. Sadly no list that I can remember though.

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    You might have just come up with the new target Dahua tag line.... "No Special Detection Mechanisms, just Good Night and Day image quality!" - amen to that I say, not too much for one to ask. Currently for some 'Pro' cameras, the situation is somewhat different.... shortly after the break...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    Reolink on this occasion are likely a step up from the T54Pro :facepalm: (that is a partial joke as a T54Pro owner...sadly) What annoys me more than anything is that nobody takes ownership, neither the manufacturers or the resellers, sometimes there may be exceptions of course, very rarely though.

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    I am aware, the real question is, who will Dahua listen to. End of the day they are all Dahua cameras, OEM or otherwise, sadly customer service these days is lacking on all fronts. Buyer beware as they say.

    It was a tongue in cheek comment on the one hand, deadly serious on the other :thumb: - did somebody say customer service :wow::lmao:

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    If these units do use the Omnivision sensor and perform similarly to the S3, it raises a fair question: will Dahua show the common courtesy of offering them to existing T54Pro owners as a goodwill gesture, given the costs those owners incurred while effectively testing a production prototype?

    Genius, I will test this, never thought to ask the supercomputers!!!

    OMG Another example of how bad some cameras are at night.

    Sensor quality looks similar to the IPC-T54PRO-ZE

    BI 6.0.1.21

    Amen to that, once I found a version that was 98% stable there was no way I wanted to chance an upgrade again. If you know, you know!

    Didn't see that coming, nice work though. Being retired admin I know that will have hurt more than most, we are often looking for the more complex answer though, it happens.

    100% for possibly spotting something that has been missed, very easily done and can cost hours of troubleshooting...ask me how I know :lmao:
