Just looking if anyone has any alternatives in the Australian market to the 5442 range of Dahua & 2CD3267G3 Hikvision cameras that have a 1/1.8" sensor & IR or multi light not just white light for illumination. Looking to put together a 3 - 4 camera system all outside with only 1 having a sensor light for supplementary lighting nearby.

So far the only one I have found is the HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ if anyone has any experience with those would be greatly appreciated.

As for a our local pricing in $AUD below is per camera before NVR & our installation costs.

IPC-HDW5442EMP-ASE-S3 @ $400 per camera
DS-2CD2367G3-LIS2UY/SL @ $330 per camera
HDW3649H-AS-PV-PRO-ANZ @ $250 per camera

If available, the 4MP version of that would perform a bit better in low light

Not sure why its funny its a real pain trying to balance the edge of price affordability & quality product :lmao: seems that majority of our markets interest is in the lower quality but much cheaper offerings which makes the already expensive options even more so as there is much less demand for our small market

Preach it brother. Fully agree.
Too much focus on circus lights and not enough on image quality

Because the price is outrageously high. I imported them myself from China. However, that was the 8mp version.

Yeah sorry I do know they have the pro model with the 1.8 more so a case of none of the distributors in Aus have any stock of the PRO model. Almost seems like they are wanting to move through their old stock on hand before bringing in these newer models potentially?

You know about the new 5459 PRO series?

We’ll see but I think they’re sacrificing image quality improvement for AI and bright night color image
