    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    Well replaced my old PTZ with this :IPC-HFW8232E-Z | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology I am a very happy camper. I may hang the sunba up on the corner of the house and use it for a "GLADYS" cam.

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    My 8232 arrived very quickly. I have been busy building a junction box mount as this will be mounted on my radio tower. In the mean time I have been playing around with this in my basement. I am very impressed with how well it does in low light. With just a bit of light coming through a...

    Dumb question #1 Is it better to up-grade the firmware before doing any of the configuration, or does it not really matter?

    Are the configurations for the camera stored IN the camera, or do you have to keep the configuration software running in the back ground to switch between day and night time profiles.

    Too many Choices need some help

    The IPC-HFW8232E-Z | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology Is kind of on the top of my list so far. It is at the high end of my budget, but from the reviews I have read and the pictures from it, it looks the best. Someone is really missing out that they don't make a better camera for us weather...

    I am looking for an outdoor Starlight capable camera for viewing the sky. Member bp2008 has shown me pictures from his Dahua SD49225T-HN This picture was taken at 11:49 PM, and this is exactly the image quality at night I am looking for. Although it is night time, I can clearly make out the...

    Dahua Ultra Starlight Varifocal Bullet (IPC-HFW8232E-Z)

    After reading all 15 pages, I have a few questions. Just for clarification, we are talking about this model camera: Dahua IPC-HFW8232E-Z ? Several of you have thrown out other model numbers here and there. I am looking at the bullet version of this I keep seeing some of you mention a turret...

    Looking for a SKY CAMERA

    Let me know how things work with the Uniview. I am not looking for miracles, nor do I have NASA's budget to purchase one. I am trying to find more pictures that were taken with the "NSC-208-BT 4K (8MP) Ultra HD Outdoor IP Bullet Security Camera 4mm" May not be perfect, but the best night time I...

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    That is why I want to go with a bullet. I do want some ground in the shot. Just what I have now is way too much. I also have to deal with sun flare as you show in your first picture. This is what I have now and it sucks.

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    bp2008, I read your review of that camera. I was/am impressed with the night time images. I am worried that it would not tilt UP enough to get my roof line and the neighbors house out of the frame. I am still looking, but that one is a contender. Edit: Also looking at this one: DAHUA 2MP...

    Looking for a SKY CAMERA

    Since you are one of the few USA shipping vendors on here, I figured I would toss this question your way. I am looking to replace my slowly dying PTZ camera. (see my review here: Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC I am looking for a fixed mount (bullet) that can use POE. I need something that could...

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    Well I am sorry to announce that my camera is slowly dying. The UFO never went away, I mechanically flipped the camera assembly up-side down, and then flipped the image up-right with the software. It hid the UFO in the ground. Night time images of the sky were so dismal I would turn off the...

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    Pre set positions are easy. Move the camera where you want, click and hold The pre set number 1-5. Shift adds 5 to each number, and control adds 10. If my memory is correct. It was some time ago that I played with BI. At the time BI did not 100% support the camera. This may have changed...

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    Sunba sent me information on how to get to the camera so I could try cleaning the outside of the lens. Was very easy to do, but the UFO as everyone is calling it is still there. Waiting to see what Sunba says now. I really hate to have to send it back and wait for a repair/replacement. At...

    Kind of what I thought. Would be nice to just have a control panel for all the functions.

    IP Camera SETTINGS software

    Does anyone have a link to some software that will allow you to adjust the settings on a PTZ IP camera? I want to see things like turn off/on the IR Cut filter, white balance, control the IR lights etc. The CMS software that came with my camera will do some of the things, but there is NO...

    I am very happy with the abilities of the camera. Next time, I will look at a better supported English speaking company to buy from.

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    I think it is an optical reflection of the lens and the front glass that protects the lens. It moves around when I adjust the zoom. Have not tried taking it apart to see if it is something on the lens. Will just have to live with it for now.

    Review Sunba Tedh 507-20XC

    Only real problem I have had is that most of the major software vendors do not list, or do not 100% support the camera as of yet. I have tried almost all of them, so far: BlueIris WILL connect and partially control the camera. PTZ Works, Presets work. Control of the IR leds and IR filter do...
