Dahua has thousands of models, make too hard to remember. Seems named not very easy to remember too. For me even hard too.
Ah, that is better. It doesn't make much sense to have the varifocal and fixed lens versions at the same price, especially when the fixed lens has specified sensitivity of 0.009@F2.0 while the varifocal has 0.006@F1.4. I wonder how that translates to real world low light performance; it is a very significant difference on paper.I put the price to the 129usd/pcs via DHL shipping,and for IPCAMTALK Guys, please send me message to me before buy, will offer you 5usd off.
The one thing I'll say about domes is they seem to be more waterproof. Turrets seems to get water intrusion and fog/condense the lens from the inside way more often.We discourage Dome use here; and I would even more so with these really light sensitive cameras.. any kinda dirt/water spots is going to reflect right back in even brighter, and getting the curved dome to flare up off external light is going to be even easier than non starlight domes.. Domes Outside are a bundle of problems typically; and I would have to imagine Starlight Domes are a couple bundles of problems..
Great price!, Given that includes DHL Shipping which most quote for around +$30 more than ePacket, thats a $100 camera when you compare it to other offerings with free ePacket shipping.. which is horribly slow w/shitty tracking; got my varifocal turret from @EMPIRETECANDY via DHL 3 days after it was mailed off.I put the price to the 129usd/pcs via DHL shipping,and for IPCAMTALK Guys, please send me message to me before buy, will offer you 5usd off.
Are these still available at 129usd? I see a different price in that link from BEC Technology. And are you still offering the additional 5off for forum members?I put the price to the 129usd/pcs via DHL shipping,and for IPCAMTALK Guys, please send me message to me before buy, will offer you 5usd off.

I'm also wondering the same thing. With both the IPC-HDW5231R-Z and IPC-HDW4231EM-AS being in the Starlight lineup, are they expected to perform the same even though the zoom lens has a larger aperture of 1.4 vs the 2.0 of the fixed?Ah, that is better.

they will not be the same as reflected in the different lux ratings. The 35 dollar savings is not worthwhileI'm also wondering the same thing.

Does Andy or anyone know?
