Not sure if he sells it anymore, which would be unfortunate, because this camera is great. I still have it running and it works awesome. Opinion of this camera is that if you have a large area that needs overview it is a good solution to the other styles of pano camera that have the fisheye...

looks great during the day so far, good detail and fov is amazing.

Other than the less than ideal mounting location(which affects, the infrared capabilities) the camera achieves the viewing angle I am looking for. Stay tuned for a more in depth review.

It's got its ups and downs...

Welcome to the forum! And yes the Dahua Starlights are pretty amazing. You could always add a "Daytime" 4k camera for added resolution.

This topic is relative to my interests.

Welcome, tons of info here

I haven't tried on my blue iris rig, but would assume you would need upgraded graphics for 4k. I think you could get away with a gtx 1050 and still not pay too much to run the bigger cards. I am interested in your question, because if I upgrade to any 4k cameras, I might run into a similar...
