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

    I am still really hoping things are correctable with FW updates but we will see. In the meantime I remain in a holding pattern regarding my purchase and installation plans. I may ask Andy for the 10/28 update while I wait, just to get a feel for the difference.

    Multiple 18k fresnel lights on scafolding or lifts should do it. ;) :rofl:

    Maybe at least provide an off-switch to allow customers to override the processing?

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    Considering your climate, would it be worthwhile to create a light silicone seal around all body, electrical and any other gaps leading to the inside of the cameras? It could be removed when needed.

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

    There is a reason for the movie industry spending lots of time and money on lighting equipment and people to haul it around, along with the generators and cables to run them for the past 100 years. Natural light, electric or reflectors, there has to be enough light to capture images. And much...

    Edit: And I can zig-zag, but not reliably end a line. Oops! Didn't do the edit the right way.:(

    I forgot to write that I am on the original firmware. I haven't updated yet.

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

    Yes, delete original line and create a new one. This works for me. My problem is that I can't reliably end a line when I want. I haven't been able to create and end a line in Global yet. (MacOS)

    B54PRO-Z4E first impression

    Actually, wouldn't this be a good candidate for a video to cite when explaining about one camera not doing everything and their differences and uses?

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

    Thanks. I think it all looks great under all of those lighting conditions. My thanks also to your thoughtful neighbor for the "walk-on" performance to give a little action to the scene.

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

    No worries. I get that the background lighting is more of a byproduct of the cams in your setup. What I really want to see is how well a T54PRO does with one of your gators in the dark.:lol: edit: added original quote

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

    Ah, I wondered about the lighting in the background. Thanks. I'm running the DI10 illuminator. I may try a larger one but I'll wait until the firmware improvements are a bit more settled.

    Woman assaults witches in Salinas .. Ring camera captures as much as possible

    Could be, but whatever the reason, grown-ups messing with someone or their property like this is not the way. smh

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

    Would a bright external IR illuminator increase the settings possibilities of the 54PRO? Just curious. I know this is not the fix we are after here.

    1080 analog dome vs 54ir (before and after)

    The first thing I thought was, "Those in charge should be happy". I mean, the improvement is pretty obvious.

    I have been following this thread since it was posted and was inspired to purchase a PRO model to take my first step up to a "real" camera, pretty much from the get-go. Prior to receiving it I had read the recommended settings and other important information from prolific IPTC members including...

    Traffic lights with four colors and a new white light are coming, and they will change the way we drive forever

    I can't see this making any difference for me. I only use two of the colors now, the green and the yellow, the latter being nothing more than a faster shade of the green. :cool: edit: Come to think of it, I hope the autonomous cars controlling traffic will only be those that have had all of...

    More newbie speak from me - I simply dove in when I purchased my tickets, having no historical knowledge of prior contests, or even what the prizes were. I just learned what they are after reading the list above. Wow! Thank you again to the contributors and coordinators.
