Are the Hikvision DS-2CD2055-I 5MP Any Good? I prefer the 2mp cams over the 3mp... so I was hoping the 5mp delivered a greater night and day than the 2mp. Has anyone tried them?

Can't see any 5MP mini bullet on Hikvision website, it seems that 2055 is a chinese version.
Anyway there is no way it will have better night image than the 2MP.

Thanks! I figured as much... saved me a $100.00 lol... I wish the ip cam tech. would get moving, seems as if it's old and out dated tech! I mean look at these drones and the quality of video! lol... from small cams!

Yeah, but the problem is that those small drone cams suck at night.
You can install a 4K security camera and have an amazing image quality during the day, but do not expect too much quality at night if you do not have good illumination.

I prefer to have better image quality at night than to have higher resolution.
At the end, at night is when there is more probability to get stolen, at least in my country.
