    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    Well, it's doing better with my neighbor's mower. It only locked onto it one time, but didn't immediately display as a human, either. I am also someone's #1 fan. I wish focus had been better and it had panned faster.

    Recordings disappear constantly

    I went to review some footage this morning, and I am missing a chunk of alerts on all of my cameras again. Mid-day Thursday, through the weekend. Continuous is available and it switches from sub to main, but there are no alerts for the triggers. Nothing changed to make the alerts show back up...

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    I am still struggling with focus at night, but not sure if that's on me or if they didn't make any changes to that.

    Cable length in junction box

    I have some PFA-130 boxes serving two cameras. It's a pain getting it closed up, but I am able to fit two runs and two camera pigtails in the junction box.

    I haven't had much foot traffic to track, just cars, so not much to report yet.

    Triple Headed, Pole Top, Turret Cam Mount

    Originally I was going to make the housing with the cameras forward facing, but it has evolved to be like your old dual camera mount, with them on the sides. I am mostly happy with it so far, but need a solution to fill the 64mm hole on each side that gives access to the interior for bolting it...

    Triple Headed, Pole Top, Turret Cam Mount

    Or do I just save myself the headache and use some of these? https://empiretech01.com/products/empiretech-pfa6330x-water-proof-junction-box-up-to-2-cameras-can-be-connected?variant=49645686227229&country=US&currency=USD

    Triple Headed, Pole Top, Turret Cam Mount

    I am working on designing a double mount to possibly swap out my roof Color4K-T180s with Color4K-Ts. How did you seal the holes for the pig tails? I see the silicone for the base of the mount, but can't guess what you did inside. I am considering attaching the printed mount to a PFA-130, but...

    UFOs, Aliens, Extraterrestrials, Advanced Technology and Other Associated Weirdness

    Ultimately what's going to end up happening is Andy is going to see me buy 6 Color4K-Ts to put on the roof so I can get better sky captures, just in case. That's all that's going to happen.

    UFOs, Aliens, Extraterrestrials, Advanced Technology and Other Associated Weirdness

    I've also gone down the rabbit hole on the history of the Sphinx. Apparently there are caverns and rooms beneath it, but they are now closed up and whatever was there is now "it was never there". I wonder what they are trying to hide or keep from the public.

    Profound

    It's funny how far they will go to make us forget about the Epstein List... I don't doubt what she is saying is true. Looking at everything we have found from ancient civilizations, before governments would gather and hide information, leans towards contact with beings not from Earth. To think...

    Hikvision as a brand

    You need to slow down. I would wait on committing to any cameras until you do more research and you need to read. You either need a camera that works for your install location, or an install location that works for your camera. Where are you wanting to capture license plates? In your driveway...

    Hikvision as a brand

    You need a specialized camera for license plates and an installation location that is appropriate to seeing plates at the right angle and distance.

    IPC-T2X5M-IL vs IP5M-T1179EW

    Being 5MP on too small of a sensor, they will both perform poorly at night.

    Bullet Camera recommendation for driveway

    The 12mm T54IR-ZE will have trouble throwing IR at 70'. I would go with the B54IR-Z4E suggested above. It has more IR on board and will also give you more zoom, which you will likely end up using.

    Bullet Camera recommendation for driveway

    30-70ft is a big range, especially with not knowing what you are wanting to accomplish with the camera. Seeing someone is one thing, but identifying someone is another. Below are captures from my 2MP B52IR-X3 that has 3.6mm, 12mm, and 25mm focal lengths. The three lenses in the camera all...

    If you look in some of them, you can see other human boxes placed around other non-human items. The back of the white SUV across the street, branches in the tree, the fire hydrant (if that clip made it in). It wants really bad for that F-150 to be a person.

    Here are some of my recent tracks after talking to JMCU and performing Global Config... Tracking a truck's tail light. Tracking a dog. Not tracking at all, after 5 triggers. Tracking another dog. Tracking the neighbor's lawn mower, again. Thinking the F-150 is a person. (It shows it...

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    Now that I have discovered I can attach and embed videos, this is much easier... My scene is different than the others in this thread because it is mostly Left <> Right, but these are some of the issues I am having: Losing tracking, target ratio seems to work in reverse (zooms out on target as...

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    How do you explain the disparity between the 25mm 3X and 32mm Z4E FOVs?

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    That’s why I didn’t want to admit to watching the video, but the chapter at 2:00 explains why the FOV is different between the 3X and the Z4E. Unfortunately, sometimes, he does present useful information.
