    Quick comparison video of Color4K-X Series 1 & 2

    Dahua posted some new firmware for the Color4K-X-S2 (DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED). I tested it first on my 2.8mm, and after that checked out fine, I uploaded the firmware to my 6mm. The release notes say the changes are mostly improved AI functions. Seems to be running great with no glitches. If...

    2026 New Release from EmpireTech

    Ha ha, yeah. and it still uses the horrible "new" mount. Doesn't Dahua ever listen to its customers? I'll never buy a camera that doesn't use a set screw. I have a new T54IR-AS-S3 sitting in the closet that I haven't ever used because of that mount.

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    ODE TO THE 5x59-PRO I walked into the forum on a dusty Tuesday night, Looking for a partner that'll treat my fields just right. Andy grinned and tipped his hat, said, "Son, what'll it be?" I said, "Before I sign that paper, prove a thing to me." Chorus I'd gladly buy a Series 7, don't you leave...

    I feel so foolish. Based on the previous tips from this forum, I had been using dielectric grease!

    Color 4k troubles

    I'd check the wire and connections first. The only time I had a problem similar to what you are experiencing, it turned out to be the wire. If you're using a Dahua NVR with your 4K-X, under "Maintenance Center" select one-click-diagnosis. It may detect something intermittent. As far as replacing...

    Color4M-T new firmware available

    Didn't notice anything different during the day, but in an hour it will get dark here, so I'll put it through a few tests.

    Color4M-T new firmware available

    Dahua posted a firmware update for the Color4M-T (IPC-HDW3449H-AS-PV-PRO) rev. 26. I uploaded it to one of my Color4M-T cams, and it worked without any issues; so I installed it on the other two 4M-T’s, and it seems to be working well on all three cameras. IPC-HDW3449H-AS-PV-PRO

    Locking T54IR camera lens in place?

    Nope, as you discovered the phillips head screw just locks the base. That camera mount has to be the worst idea anyone from Dahua ever had.

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    I had difficulty updating the same camera and finally had to resort to climbing the ladder and doing a factory reset. That fixed the issue, and it finally updated ok. Did you try a reset before updating?

    Need advice: 2 Dahua cameras for outdoor garden surveillance

    Just to add to what bigredfish suggested above, when I think of a garden and ip cameras, the first thing I think of is bugs. External illumination will help immensely.

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    The color cast correction analyzes the artificial lighting in the scene and removes color casts (blue/yellow) to render a more natural white balance. Under the street lamp on my street, it corrected the lighting to make it appear more pleasant to the eye.
