Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

At quick glance you benefit from slow movement and a lot of IR reflection off of everything to help illuminate you.

I think the 5442 would pull that off better. What about lower ND? 50 could be causing some of the softness I saw during movement.

I don't know if it's worth sending them to the U.S. because of the taxes and the expensive shipping.
150euros we also sell that price even cheaper than that, but before 2026 Jan. After that price increase too much because of the chips supply crisis.

So here's a video of the 5459 series. I'd love to hear your suggestions for improvement. My settings were: Shutter 8.33, Gain 55, and 2D and 3D NR at 50. Picture settings: Contrast 57, Sharpness 35. IR was set to 100%.

You're getting a lot of noisy streaking from the NR algorithm stacking frames. Increase shutter to 15-20, decrease 3D NR to 25-45.

I wanted to upload this to the forum, but it's over 100 MB. Can't the limit be raised?


The German version of @bigredfish :rofl:

Very grainy footage
I'd rather watch Casper the Friendly Ghost
Better to keep these cameras docked at port; minimize the chances of a cargo ship serrating the poor fish in the Pacific Ocean; keep the hot sauce (with Red-40) coming though ;)

I'm going to test the camera again tonight at 1/60 or 1/100.

I hope we are not trying too hard to get a positive result for these new models
 
I mean it’s not THAT bad.

Add some strong off camera IR or a $12 solar motion flood and it may be ok

For us slow learners, it’s this one?
