    I think I need thermal imaging camera advice

    you have what I'd call, a pretty interesting problem... how you live in an area where the authorities are not "fussed" about bullets being shot at your home is a bit of a worry... if I were in your situation, I'd be inclined to go with a multi prong approach, firstly can I ask if the vermin are...

    Need advise installing 30 x 3MP camera

    you just need the switch's that the Cam's connect to, to have a gigabit uplink to the NVR/DVR... but even then with a lot of cam's you might still have pausing due to the DVR speed... I assume you've done cam deployments previously? do the Hik NVR's give you a CPU util figure so you can see...

    yeah I guess, I wonder if they played with the sharpness setting or something, either way interesting stuff that the 2 is better than the three

    Dahua 12mp Vs Hik 3mp Comprison

    it does not really look like a fair comparison since the bottom one is considerably more zoomed in? I wonder if it's due to the lens being closer to focused from factory or Sensor size? the 3mp I posted (second sample) is from a Geovision, which I spent heaps of time attempting to focus but...

    Dahua 12mp Vs Hik 3mp Comprison

    Compared to other 3mp we played with (Geovision and Security Cam 2000, Visiontek) they are awesome, nothing even four times it's price is that much better from what I've played with

    Dahua 12mp Vs Hik 3mp Comprison

    ok here's one with a higher bitrate, the dumped image is about 4mb larger so maybe there is some more detail there... I don't tend to notice much, will see if things improve overnight http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t370/mgoodwinmr2/12mp%20high%20bitrate.jpg_zpsskvaqbir.png

    Dahua 12mp Vs Hik 3mp Comprison

    you know... your right, I just realized the bitrate was locked down to 4096 I'll open it up and see how it goes... will also see what difference unlocking it makes in Milestone Edit: changed it but I can't really tell a difference, we only record at 8fps so it's not a huge difference in what...

    Dahua 12mp Vs Hik 3mp Comprison

    the 2332 has a fixed lens that is factory locked into what they consider the perfect zoom, it's about as sharp as the rest of them that we have (loads of them) it could have had a small amount of dust on the lens (though it's aimed downwards so not too much) the demo cam (12mp) has moved...

    Certain cameras go offline and display "Net Error"

    Kind of up to you... you need to be very happy with your setups, I don't really trust what other people do on my networks which is why I'll select a completely different subnet... I guess if your existing network is 192.168.0.X you could throw the cam's on 10.0.0.X if you want and just do the...

    Certain cameras go offline and display "Net Error"

    I assume you have the same setup at other sites and no issues? at which point I'd be looking closely at a power issue, some sites I look after are that bad that I run power from our factory data cabinets into an online ups in their main data rack to get rid of drop-outs something I've taken to...

    Is H.265 supported in Milestone XProtect Essential?
