The new GUI has a lock on the IVS page, but I have found it doesn't keep it moving if triggered. This could be due to getting called to a preset from BI though. I usually just call it back to the preset from the UI3 interface and carry on with my adjustments.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I do not believe that model has autotracking.

Nope, backlight is off.

I'm not too concerned with it since the capture is usable, but was just curious. I also don't notice it with my LPRs since they just stare at asphalt all day and can't get any greyer. Here is the video.

This isn't the end of the world to find a fix for, but just curious why the scene will be a little washed out/dull until any motion is in the FOV and then the saturation/color will change. Settings are basic for Day: typical exposure, low gain, no Backlight, WB set to Outdoor. Z12E-S2 Below is...

Welcome, and sorry about the mosquitos. Honestly, I would buy once, cry once and not go with either PTZ you have listed. PTZ-5A4M-25X would be a much better choice than the PTZ425DB-AT (I have one and night captures require a lot of light) Do you have a need for a PTZ or are you just wanting a...

I have some cameras with this checked and others that don't have it checked, but no clue why. Does anyone have an opinion on which is the best method? I think if you want it unchecked you will need to uncheck it in the non-primary profile.

The way it just peels the roof off of the garage, that's crazy.

These are with my older Z12E as LPRs. I would say they are comparable to 4MP.

Having a 4MP/2.8 Mini-PTZ, of the two choices, I would definitely go 2MP/2.8 over the 4MP/2.8, no question. However, I would try to justify the PTZ5A4M-25X at 4MP/1.8 in any way I could.

This is from the ground.

It's hard to see the second rainbow, but we had some storms roll through yesterday and I was able to capture a pretty nice rainbow last night. You can just see the second rainbow to the right and left.

Here is a post from @wittaj with the differences from the Z12E to the Z12E-S2 https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/mini-review-5241-z12e-s2-replacement-for-the-5241-z12e.71898/#post-791768

The Z12E-S2 is an updated version of the original Z12E. Edited for -S2, I have been saying -S3, but that's the 5442 turret.

Unfortunately that's the problem with the 5442, once you use them you don't really want to use anything else. Due to the form factor, I installed a wedge next to the door for ID, I would much rather have a 5442 there and may eventually end up switching it out when I have nothing else to do, but...

It's not a fair comparison as I am still working on the settings for the Z12E, but it does show that the 2MP is still capable of good detail at that distance. My thoughts were right zoom for the job and night time performance. The Z4E is maxed out, but I can see what I want to see, so it works...

This is my Z4E at approximately 60ft. And my Z12E-S3 at approximately 95ft.

Deactivate the trigger on all but one, don't try troubleshooting this issue on more than one at a time.

How much time are you waiting between each instance of clicking "Trigger Now"? If you have too many cameras calling the PTZ to a preset, it could be an issue if one call-to needs to time out before it will accept a call-to from another camera. Have you made sure the presets have been imported...

Mine is mounted on the first floor soffit, approx 11-12' high and 20-25' from the street. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/more-sd4a425db-hny-captures-from-the-1st-floor-this-thing-is-a-beast.70131/ Keep in mind, PTZs need to be suspended. So in order to mount it to the flat top of your pole you...

Did you edit the permissions for the users? I don't know if this affects Find/Inspect but you need to give users PTZ control.

I am guessing it isn't pulling in the correct information, then. Try what I mentioned above with defaulting the camera, and give it another go. @wittaj sometimes has luck with resetting the ONVIF user in the camera UI, but I have never had luck with that.

This is what I see when BI can't run a proper Find/Inspect.

I have had random issues, mostly with my PTZ, when running Find/Inspect that BI cannot pull in the correct information for the camera. I have had a perfectly fine and working camera, make a change, run Find/Inspect, and it messes it up. When this has happened I will make note of all of my...

What happens when you run Find/Inspect? Does it find the correct camera? You may need to change the setting in the PTZ drop down on the PTZ tab.

Did you change Mode to Manual? If it says Auto you will have no control over shutter/exposure.
