    Back deck/yard camera - 5442 S3 or 4k-X for no-light conditions?

    In the US, a lot use this adaptor to run 2 cameras on one cable as it's weather resistant and the combiner part can be used in a protected application (junction box, stuffed in an eave, etc.): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JS45B89?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    By the way, never seen green streets and sidewalks. I guess it's a new trend - ugh

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    I don't understand the thought behind a hybrid image sensor(s). The color part of the image will not be useful for detail evidence since the color is way off. And who cares what colors are on the structures in the distance, they are not relevant to what's happening in the foreground. Another...

    Vacuum tube, there's a blast from the past. Can't be too portable, yes?

    Personally, I think a lot of this shit on Facebook is for likes and views. This idiot knows exactly what they did to get a reading and just looking for attention

    Again with the hybrid BW/semi color images? Didn't help this person out - just a gimmick

    The more I view that clip, the more I think it is artificial movement - AI done in an editing program. You would see subtle physical glitches in movement if it were real. It's way too smooth for the movement to be mechanical in nature. Just look at the soccer robots in China, they regularly...

    The official "WTF" thread

    You got to be freaking kidding me. Politicians will find any way to rob the people they serve. The people of Oregon need to push back on this and tell them no freaking way, or those in government will keep finding ways to bend them over. You'll need a permit to breathe air soon

    Will a 54IR or a 22IR camera be sufficient for LPR if I'm mounting on a mailbox?

    These serve as a good idea of relation to angles, speed and target size of the plate. As mentioned by many, a good capture will depend on many variables. Best to do a temporary setup for oneself to see what results you can get in your application.

    Will a 54IR or a 22IR camera be sufficient for LPR if I'm mounting on a mailbox?

    These captures look great as they are stationary, and they have a good angle. To have this good angle, the camera would have to be right at the edge of the road. The angle and speed will determine if you get a readable LP capture. In my case, not enough zoom to make the plate large enough to...

    I guess that rules out screwing around on the balconies then, doesn't it?

    I wonder if that thing spins like a turret on a tank?

    Will a 54IR or a 22IR camera be sufficient for LPR if I'm mounting on a mailbox?

    In my case, a lot more distance. The minimum camera I would have to use to have the reasonable angle and zoom as well as enough IR would be the B54IR-Z4E. As I found out, best to try a temporary setup to get an idea before you go through a permanent installation. Even more important is to...

    Will a 54IR or a 22IR camera be sufficient for LPR if I'm mounting on a mailbox?

    My personal experience, the 5442 FOV wasn't enough to get the plate even being 5 feet off the road. And then there's the light issue. The turret cams can have hotspots in the middle of the image. The bullet cams do much better with IR as there is twice as many and the illumination is more even...
