Looking to Replace my PTZ camera with a newer model
The Hikvision PTZ camera came in yesterday, and I set it up in my garage today. Out of the box it was far from being ready to go. The Hikvision setup is a little different than the Dahua. I was getting nervous in that I might have to send the camera back. However, in the end I won the battle... -

Looking to Replace my PTZ camera with a newer model
By the way, this is how Hikvision explains the very good LUX numbers for this model. It is as some have said. It is indeed because of the newer style lens. "The new PTZ cameras' fixed F1.2 lens aperture allows as much as 14x more light to enter the lens compared to conventional PTZ units. This... -

Trump’s tariffs bring in record revenues, could reduce deficit by $4T — but will American households pay the price? Although they have roiled markets, there’s no question that President Donald Trump’s trade policy actions have boosted the federal government’s customs revenues. The good news is... -

Looking to Replace my PTZ camera with a newer model
I bought it through B & H Photo based in New York City. I liked the performance of the Hikvision over the Dahau. Dahua seems to have stopped selling some of their PTZ's. Normally I would not buy a 4K camera with a 1/1.8" sensor, but this one looks like it might an exception to the rule. Also, I... -

Looking to Replace my PTZ camera with a newer model
Here is a picture taken at 2am this morning with the current Dahua PTZ. There is plenty of ambient light available, so maybe the 4k Hikvision PTZ with the 1/1.8" sensor may actually work in this location. I am thinking real hard about this one. ;)
