EOM (End of Marketing and Sales) for 5442-S3 announced
yes, they use the same SOC and firmware as 54PRO... But image sensor for 99% is different... Both HIK & Dahua have AI-ISP only for Smart Sense sensors. I don't know why - maybe some AI-ISP processing is simply done on image sensor and not on SOC... 5x59-PRO have 4/6/8 Mpx models on 1/1.8"... -
EOM (End of Marketing and Sales) for 5442-S3 announced
I strongly suspect (based on differences in specifications) that the 5x59-IL models are based on OmniVision sensors (the same as in the 5442-S3, or newer generations) and not Smart Sense sense (like TIOC-PRO / 5x59-PRO and HIK ColorVu cams). they have from beginning disabled WizColor / AI-ISP... -

2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech
And return to XX century? no... AI is and will be part of our life.. And it will progress in next models... Problem with AI on CCTV cameras is that CCTV cams are using cheap a few dollars SOCs (chips), which are very limited.. There is big difference on AI capabilities / performance / size...- steve1225

2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech
the new 7 PRO series is based on new (2024/2025) generation OmniVision sensors with DUAL-ISO (ClearHDR). OmniVision sensors (previous gen) where used in 5442-S3 and 7442-X... they DON'T have any AI-ISP / WizColor AI references in spec sheet... We wait for first samples from Dahua / Andy...- steve1225

Dahua keeps dropping Frames Per SEcond (FPS) to around 5 - 6 even though it's programmed to do 25.
without some night video footage showing the problem with 6fps and some visible vehicle/human movement on it (to see what exposure time was used by camera and what light/IR situation was on scene) - it's hard to help you... you can try update firmware to latest one, try to downgrade encoder to... -

show Your camera image/video settings.. especially exposure settings... if the exposure is too long (like 1/6s) at night then you will get only 6 frames per second... Also what are IR settings.. if there is too low IR, then exposure will be slow.. it's dark PTZ camera with small sensor... -
Do you all agree with this statement regarding different focal lengths?
only full color (no IR) cams are history now... today you have IR only cams or hybrid light (IR + white) cams... market is changing...- steve1225

Do you all agree with this statement regarding different focal lengths?
Problem with Dahua is that, they don't see Ubiquity as a competition.. They see HIK Vision as competition - so everything HIK is doing Dahua is copying and vice versa.. Also they more and more entering other industries like monitors or profesional big event LED displays or even drones (Yes they...- steve1225

I was hoping that new Dahua 7 series will use new 1/1.2" sensor from OmniVision (or Sony Starvis 2) to differentiate from 5 series.. I wrote about this 2-3 times on this forum.. But this never materialized... answer is of course money - bigger sensors costs more, require bigger/better/pricey...- steve1225
