Release schedule for newer models with 1/1.2" sensors?

[Cold-Lemonade]

Does anyone have an idea of when we can expect to see new PoE cameras with 1/1.2" sensors? I think Dahua only has a couple right now. Most are 1/1.8".

They would rather release inferior sensor sizes with super AI....

That's unfortunate because inferior sensor sizes have more ghosting and noise. I'd rather have better nighttime image quality than better AI.

 

[wittaj]

Yep. Many here feel the same way. Sadly they are now catering to the masses that prefer cheaper options and brighter static images, and saying Super AI sells...

Is the IPC-Color4K-T-S2 8MP the camera most recommended if you're looking for a 1/1.2" sensor with great low light capability?

 

[wittaj]

That would be the recommendation, just keep in mind it doesn't see infrared, so you need to be OK with running the built in white LED or have enough white light.

 

[Cold-Lemonade]

How much ambient light would be sufficient? It's an urban street with street lamp lighting.

What is the goal of the camera- overview or identify 15 feet from camera?

If the only light is behind the person, their face will be dark.

 

[Cold-Lemonade]

Overview. I have ICP-HDW3449H-ZAS-PV-PRO for identify. I would use the camera with the 1/1.2" sensor to have an overview. Right now I'm using IPC-Color4M-T and there is ghosting in IR mode.

 

[wittaj]

Then I think it would be fine.
