    Recommending newest Dahua PTZ?

    Thx everyone. I want to make sure what "Target Tracking Size" actually means.. So the lower the number, objects that are farther away and smaller will be picked up. I'm trying to get the camera to pick up objects at the top of the screen faster (start zooming faster). So that it picks up the...

    I'd rather not use a dome like that one due to distortion. More of the traditional PTZ look like the sd49425xb-hnr

    Can someone verify what the latest firmware is for this camera that supports human and car tracking? Has anyone created a custom firmware? Has anyone tried a firmware from a different Dahua camera and have it work better and not brick it? I like the camera in general but its tracking needs...

    Super wide angle camera suggestion

    Also, for those who use Dahua PTZ's.. do these attachments look right? On pic 1, how do these settings look? On pic 2, look at the blue box around the picture frame (Rule)..is that too close to the edges? Its not tracking cars very well. Sometimes it looks at the car and doesnt lock in...

    Super wide angle camera suggestion

    Would an really high res non PTZ pick up enough image so you could blow up the image to see the license plate. License plate image isnt actuall a must just a nice to have. Let me throw a few out here and get your opinion.: Amcrest Night Color AI Bullet IP PoE Camera w/ 164ft Full Color...

    So I am having a problem. Sometime for a power failure and sometimes when my ISP drops service due to weather. When it comes back up, the WAN IP address is changing. The LAN IP is static and doesnt change.

    What is the operating temperature allowed for Dahua PTZ's in cold weather?

    Will leaving a camera plugged in cause damage? Or do these cameras have an auto turn off that stops the attempt to use the motor so it doesnt burn up? I dont have touring turning on. Its the motion tracking which is trying to move the camera.
