I have not seen the two I just got to be too loose.

I got one of the garage cams installed today and part way done on one for the other side. For this area I am installing a pair of IPC-T5442TM-AS from Andy. My initial observations is that this camera is damn good at gathering light. Kind of a split between my better low light 2mp cams and my...

Impressive, I hope to have to of them in my hands tomorrow.

So if only one cam is what you wanted for what ever reason seems like a cam with a 90 deg field of view does not too bad at the red position but you miss someone right at the door leading to the laundry but have the approach. At the green position you have better on the laundry but loose some on...

A well done house alarm should have minimal false alarms and provide you with good protection for the interior from intruders. There are some really nice products these days that let you self monitor an alarm system and notify you if there is a trip all from your phone working off a...

So I like the idea of having mixed cameras that show both an overview and some that are also positioned to where can get a quality kind of face shot. I look at photos every day in a professional capacity of criminals caught in the act. The key part of that is photos not videos. These photos...

Part of what strikes me is in the grand scheme of things is that overall all you have good overall capture of what occurred. You have good overall views of the subject and some good face shots as well. I too am experiencing times when I am impressed with the cameras and the times when I am...

For the win! I

I think if it was me I would want to think about putting a camera(s) at a point where your bad guy is most likely going to be directed into a well lit area at fairly close range if you want to get good images that really do provide facial ID. Not the kind of ID to where you can recognize your...

A few photos might help with some clever ideas to get a wired camera to where you want.

Thank you I found that!!! I have also found where the IVS set up is now. I have not come across a tutorial for how to do that if there is one. i am going to try a little bit of the WDR and see how that works on the front door cam.

I know how to turn off and on WDR on the NVR for the cameras but not how to set it to a percentage like you can do with some of the other image controls.

It is mounted a touch lower than would have been my first choice. I had a choice of what I considered too high above the light, or getting a little higher by ditching the address plate which I did not want to do.. This was a compromise working with the cards I was given and where I could...

Thank you that kind of stuff is super important to me.
