Is there any reason why I should prefer an IPC-HDW5442T-ZE (2.7mm - 12mm, turret) over an IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E (8mm - 32mm, bullet as there doesn't seem to be any 8mm-32mm turret)? If I mount the cams where I have Ethernet cables coming out the wall then about 12mm is the right focal length so both could work, the former at the limit. I could run cables along the wall to get closer but I think it makes more sense to optically zoom in and keep a lower angle of view (the current cams are some 12' high and the area of interest is about 25' away). The Z4E seems to have a longer illumination distance.
Btw, I assume the IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E and IPC-T5542W-Z4E are the same cams, the former is just from Dahua directly and the later is from Andy.
