There is always an issue LOL - fix one thing and create another!

That roof on the bottom with the IR reflection will mess with the exposure and it making the surroundings darker than they should be.

Can someone walk around down there and the PTZ pick it up and track?

PTZ mainly for long range watching and tracking, low light place the PTZ 4MP will be better than the 4K under the 1/1.8cmos.
The IPC-T54IR-ZE S3 surely the best for nearby watching.

Okay... not so good thus far. This PTZ will likely only be good for day use. Maybe the 4MP unit I am getting for the barn to look back at the house will be better for night.

It's not bad if you have decent light at night, there is a street LED lamp right across the street from my house and I can run mine PTZ5A4K-25X 24/7 full color with good result.

Something just not right with the IR controls on that camera.
For whatever reason, I have seen the 8MP cameras on the 1/1.8" sensor under the new GUI struggle with low light way more than other cameras. I don't know if the firmware hasn't been optimized for that amount of MP or if they just had to up the digital parameters so much with the increased MP.
