    I think Andy must have sent me wittaj's numbers by mistake.

    Ha...I remember it's like this every lottery. He'll draw the next round between 3p and 8p. It builds the suspense.

    I get it. It's a tough subject to comprehend. I had to watch it a few times to finally get it. Perhaps the Spanish version might be easier to understand?

    Just in case anyone didn't understand what a turnaround was. I couldn't find the educational video thread so I'm posting it here.

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    No car before hand. I do not know if a bug happened to settle right in front of only that lens. It stayed that way until it switched to bay mode at 7am. I'm not sure what you mean when you say those times are off.

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    It was better last light. Although something interesting happened around 4:30am. I've got all the ir's set at 100%. One of the 3 cameras just went dark as if ir lights had been turned down or off. However, the other cameras weren't affected. I'll check tonight and see if I can figure it out...

    Yeah...a trimmed bush is always better. I do need to take some off the top. I'm actually going to pull them up but I have to build some planters first. HOA rules say there has to be something planted there.

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    My day settings seem to be pretty clear but that's the easy part. My night settings aren't bad but I feel they can be better, specifically my distant. It just looks noisy. And that's where I get stumped. I don't know enough to be able to make a change during the day that will result in a better...

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    There are a number of people who are great about explaining things when someone asks about something. However, that information is scattered throughout various threads. I haven't seen that information consolidated anywhere. If it is and I just haven't run across it, great, I'll find it...

    Maybe it's out there and I haven't found it but I think someone with plenty of knowledge should make a video explaining what the settings are and how they affect the video. Gamma, saturation, exposure compensation, 3d noise reduction, 2d noise reduction. Does something like that exist?

    I think I'm missing something. You have the same settings for day and night. So there must be a schedule set to tell it to switch from one to the other. What's the advantage of customized scene compared to day/night switch?

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    I have 2 IPC-T5442T-ZE cameras next to each other. One is zoomed in to catch people walking toward the camera. The other is zoomed out to catch the overview of the area. It seems this camera could replace both of them. Is there any reason I may be missing why it wouldn't? Or is this scenario...
