    IPC 4k 8MP 25-30fps hard to find - current generations

    Let's see. Any owner of one of these cameras around here? IPC-HDBW1831R IPC-HFW1831E IPC-HFW2831T-ZS IPC-HFW2831T-ZAS IPC-HDBW2831R-ZS IPC-HDBW2831R-ZAS They all are using same firmware image, so they are based on same board/SOC and I guess it's an Ambarella. Please run this command on...

    Recommendations for IP camera to record and live stream my bird feeder (4k, 25fps+ and less than $200)

    I didn't mean the feature itself, just want to know what settings for bit rate in P1448-LE exist. In data sheet I found only: "Controllable frame rate and bandwidth VBR/ABR/MBR H.264" but no numbers at all.

    wrong strategy, find the camera that fits your needs and ask them for supported features e.g. PTZ control.

    Recommendations for IP camera to record and live stream my bird feeder (4k, 25fps+ and less than $200)

    Look also for data rates. This 1831E can deliver only: H.265:32K~ 8192Kbps - You'll have no good picture at this data rate @4K. Maybe that's the reason for "EoL" - SOC was too weak. This sheet is very helpful: Max bit rate?? - it says: "If the real environment is more complex, you can increase...

    Recommendations for IP camera to record and live stream my bird feeder (4k, 25fps+ and less than $200)

    Your asking price is unrealistic at the moment. The only way I see, is to get some remaining stock of EoL models like this: 8 MP (4K) IP Bullet Camera Dahua, 50 M Night Vision IPC-HFW1831E | eBay Edit: This a 2.8mm fixed lens but 25-30 fps@4k...

    There are also models with 1/1.8" sensor and 4k@25-30 fps available. Surveillance station compatiblity list: Surveillance Station IP Camera Support List | Synology Inc. Sooner or later you'll find out that paying per camera, limited hardware and compatibility is not a good choice. That's why...

    Probably a PTZ with a high zoom level is better for this. Without zoom or even the 4x zoom bullet cameras usually have, you'll get no details of the birds if not mounted very close to them:

    Study data sheets of all posted models and make a table/sheet with all features for your use case (watching birds). When this would be my use case, I would look for this: DS-2CD7A85G0-IZHS Image Sensor: 1/1.8" Minimum Illumination Color: 0.007 lux @ (f/1.2, AGC on) FOV: 2.8 to 12 mm, horizontal...

    No, it has a smaller sensor and is less light sensitive: Image Sensor 1/2.5" Color: 0.01 Lux @ (F1.2, AGC ON), 0 Lux with IR Color: 0.014 Lux @ (F1.4, AGC ON), 0 Lux with IR

    Something better than IPC-HFW8232E-Z?

    Exactly, IPC-HFW8232E-Z is superb and hard to replace with something better but the new 1/1.8" sensor is very good. You'll have same low light performance but double amount of pixels which means much more details. From 2MP to 4MP it's a "wow", 4MP to 8MP is only a little bit better but...

    Something better than IPC-HFW8232E-Z?

    No, HFW5442T-ASE is really color only and can't see IR light. For better F-stop there is only 7442/7842 and 5842 and they are expensive due AI features (stronger SOC cpu, more memory needed) but F-stop is not everything, compare min. Illumination, all close together and 0,006 Lux of your...
