    WizColor 2.0 is coming (15 April)

    WizColor 2.0 (aka WizColor X) new features: - bigger aperture F0.8 (I don't know how this even works). Asked gemini AI for commenting that aperture. Depth of Field (DoF) will be very problematic... - bigger pixel size - but only for 2Mpx in 1/1.8" sensor... - better AI-ISP 2.0 processing...

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

    All options you mentioned are video processing options done in SOC (processor) - in mixed software & hardware solution. Not at image sensor level. The only image settings which change image sensor behavior are: shutter time, gain (aka ISO) and full WDR (>= 45 or 50 depending of camera model)...

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

    @bigredfish We don't know that.. SmartSense sensors were used for many years in non AI-ISP (classic video processing) Full Color cams (HIK vuColor and some Dahua Full Color) and they have comparable night color performance to 5442... For some reason they were used in Full Color cams - probably...

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    There is always only one account which is true owner and admin of device (in Dahua cloud way). And it can give access for device to many more users. If company don’t have admin / device owner, then you can be that person / account in DMSS

    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...
