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

    I would just be grateful at this point if the 54Pro could get level with the S3 at night, and during the day for that matter. Surely a lot of this has to be linked to the automation/processing, if so then it really is madness and at times like this frustrating. I can capture a great still image...

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

    Shutter below 2ms during the day (and night really!) for these to be sharp with freeze motion, I run mine below 1 during the day, yes, really!! Daytime settings below...

    If you have ambient light I would try a 4K-T assuming you don't want or need IR/B&W...

    Yes there is really no taming these at the moment, we are reaching the same conclusion at this point. Unless tuning out this auto processing brings these back closer to the 5442, then I suspect the sensor may well be the limiting factor here. We are finding the limits and beyond of what they can...

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

    I am a camera (photography) guy, although I know there is huge development regarding phone cameras. There will never ever be a substitute for good glass and a large sensor, you cannot bend the laws of optics past a certain point. In the photography world I will take a fast aperture prime (fixed...

    Interesting, hopefully it can be tuned out as much as possible. The 5459-IL series look interesting although aperture not spectacular, anything which gives better manual control without Ai processing can only be good!

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

    This 'always on' processing needs to stop or at least have a toggle for those who don't want the 'we think we probably know what you want so tough luck' option turned on! I am seeing this on the 54Pro and wish it could just be disabled for more natural viewing. While we are on this auto...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-HDW5849H-ASE-LED / IPC-Color4K-T - 2.8mm Turret

    Wow, that is a lot of work but very interesting. This agrees with my findings based on user feedback and my own experience with the 2.8 at least, sharpness is good from 5-12 or even 5-15 but then falls away from there. I mean they are still insanely good past those distances frankly but this...

    It is on the limit honestly, pushing the gain will cause other issues, dropping the shutter will darken it quite a lot. Just have to try shutter below 2 or 3 and see how it plays out. Otherwise just go with IR and tune that to suit, still have to keep shutter low (fast) though.

    IR Would improve it from a motion standpoint no doubt, would be nice to keep in colour if possible though. Don't forget the iris @Chokolinho - 65+ if it is below that already.

    Ok, that is not so bad, but shutter has to go lower for motion sadly, I figured it would. Below 2ms is calling sadly, then possibly push the gain but really best if you can manage not to. You are about to hit the limit if that has not already been passed :thumb:

    Maybe knock sharpness to zero if it is looking to grainy. Can even try NR to nothing but still enabled, surprising how much better that can look, it might not be clean but should be better for motion. Keep the iris above 65 but maybe below 85 also if you can, will brighten it a touch.

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

    The scene looks good but for motion you will have to suffer less brightness...maybe, I would go: Shutter: 0-4ms at least Gain: 69 NR: below 10 Sharpness: 0 to 9 Fact is unless you can get serious light (4000 lumen+) then compromises with digital fuzzies (@bigredfish :D:thumb:) need to be made...

    B54PRO-Z4E first impression

    Seems like this could cost me more money, what is new! The 4K series are really spoiling me for low light and zero ambient light situations, I find the S3 and 5442 just solid for IR use and general coverage. The 54ProZE is overlapping with those two for me, having varifocal is still very...
