    I've been so busy; haven't had a chance to buy one and tinker with a G6 Pro Turret myself. Microcenter has ZERO restocking fees, if it...

    In theory the G6 with the 1/1.2" sensor should do well, ..is it really 2X the price? Will you test in darkness and with moving humans...

    That could be just a matter of allowing more granular controls of the optics like Dahua does. Would require just firmware and software...

    Definitely understand that. I'm just upgrading at the wrong time it seems. I won't be ripping and replacing all at once. But, I don't...

    I thought the future of Dahua cameras being shipped into the US was uncertain, even for Empiretech? I have Ubiquiti networking gear...

    So, what are people going to move to once Empiretech is no longer selling cameras?
