Getting the hang of it

One of my Wizmind bullet cameras has developed moisture inside the lens after several days of continuous rain. The condensation is clearly visible from the inside of the glass.
Has anyone experienced this before?
I’m considering opening the camera housing, cleaning and drying it thoroughly, then sealing it again with silicone or caulking. Would that be a good long-term solution, or is there a better way to fix this properly and prevent it from happening again?
I’d really like a permanent solution if possible. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Yep it has happened to a few here under the right (wrong) atmospheric conditions.

Make sure to get some silica packs to replace inside the camera as well.

Fixing focus on IPC-COLOR4K-X

So, like a lot of people who buy kits, I was initially concerned with seeing my entire property and surrounding area rather than focusing on the important areas. Having found this forum, I was quickly concerned that I had badly spent my money on cameras that weren't going to be able to help me...


Dahua Lens Replacement
Hi, I have a newly purchased Dahua IPC-HDW2431TP-AS-S2 camera and wanted to know if it is possible to change the lens from a 3.6mm to a 2.8mm. Basically, I am testing this Dahua camera to replace a Hikvision IPC-T120-D 2.8mm camera. The image quality on the Dahua is much better but...


This post was for a Hikvision, but the steps are pretty similar, it is a matter of taking off the cover, xacto knife scraping off the glue on the thread and turn in small increments and watch it on a screen.

2CD2387G2-LSU/LU Tear down and refocus (with pictures)
I recently purchased a 2CD2387G2 8MP ColorVu to replace a 2386G2 monitoring the driveway and front yard of my home. After conducting some side-by-side testing with the existing 2CD2386G2 I came to the conclusion the new 2CD2387G2 was not as well focused. Images from the 2CD2387G2 were...
