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

It’s .6 not .5 firmware… we had .4
It looks like there were .5 released in march which we never received

.5 have „other” AI target filter (to human/car/animal) for people who want more detection in IVS
There is also high frame support for 1080p

I have the 5r and it bricked my ZE. didnt try to update another cam

The 5459-IL horribly flunked an unplanned human detection test today. Four times, I walked through the edge of the FOV, visible for 2 to 3 seconds. The S3 triggered all 4 times, and the IL missed them all. The applicable tripwire is in the same place on both cameras. This is with the new .6 firmware.

The rule sensitivity is set higher on the IL, 5 vs. 3 on the S3. Global sensitivity is 5 on both. I guess I'll try cranking the IL's sensitivity higher.

I run sensitivity quite a bit higher. Typically 8 on most of my cameras… same with Global

I set the sensitivity to 10 on all my cameras.

Is the -IL image quality now better ?

fedex lost mine :(
Bummer about the fedex loss. I'm starting to wonder if there might be a global conspiracy to keep -ILs out of the hands of IPCT members?

On the image quality I'm so far not noticing any difference from the .4 firmware that I previously had. I don't recall having criticized the -IL's image quality, intending to give the message that I think it's a bit better than the S3's, which in turn was a bit better than the previous 5442 S2 at the same location. Glancing at a few images with the .6 firmware vs. the S3 images leaves me with the same impression. I'm not planning on re-running any controlled comparisons with the S3. Takes too many hours I don't have in the near future.
