Best way to guide a PTZ camera outdoors at long range
I agree with @wittaj, you're probably going to need more cameras than you think. One of the features of pairing an Axis PTZ with a radar unit is the PTZ camera does not have to see the person/vehicle to trigger the PTZ to start auto tracking. It can also track more than one person at a time...- smiticans

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
@wittaj I was able to get night captures with my P1468-LE and Q3538-LVE in IR without any white light. Axis P1468-LE Night IR video; Max exposure was set to 1/60 for this test video. Axis Q3538-LVE Night IR video; Max exposure was set to 1/100 (This is what I normally run it at with... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
You should be able to improve the image quality by making some of those adjustments. I just didn't want you to have an unreasonable expectation of this camera. In my opinion, based on my install (replaced a Dahua 4K-T) and other locations I installed them, the image quality is better than the... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
The overview image of the front porch is a Dahua Color 4K-T and the front door camera is an Axis Q3538-LVE. Obviously they have different mounting positions so it's not a direct comparison but its as close as I can get at the moment. Back to my observation of the Dahua camera having a constant... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
Hmm, I'm running the same firmware version too. What is the specific purpose of this camera? Is it to get vehicles coming and going through the gate, ID people exiting the vehicle to open the gate or to capture license plates? The problem is that you're running the camera in IR mode in... -

Hmm that's odd. Maybe try "user2" for the video encoder? -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
Its hard to tell with the spider web there but it doesn't look that much different than mine in IR. The exposure is too slow to get the plate from the truck moving at that speed but it looks like you can somewhat make it out as it rounds the corner. For testing purposes, someone needs to walk by... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
That image looks much better than the one you posted yesterday. That's odd that it won't let you set 15 FPS. I would create your own ONFIV media profile and follow my settings and use the custom made one for BI. See my attached screenshots. -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
One thing we forgot to troubleshoot is the ONVIF profile stream settings. Can you post a pic of your ONVIF profile settings in the camera and also the ONVIF profile that BI is using. I want to verify that BI is actually pulling the main stream from the camera. Also, when you're viewing the... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
One thing I just thought of, go to the camera settings in BI and uncheck "Enable Pan/Tilt/Zoom and other controls" if you didn't already. That way we could rule out the possibility of BI modifying the zoom/focus settings. It's very possible the camera is defective but the next step would be to... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
The settings in Axis cameras and Dahua cameras are not equal and react differently (It took me a little to learn this). You can't really compare the two. Instead of chasing a specific shutter setting you should be adjusting it based on the image quality. You may be able to use a faster shutter... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
It kind of looks slightly out of focus. Go to Video- Installation- and click on the "AF" button next to Focus. If you're running Max shutter at 1/120 with IR in complete darkness that's too fast and you should reduce it to 1/60. (I had decent results with 1/120 with IR but I also have two... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
Honestly, I'm not sure but I believe the settings in the ONVIF Media Profile will override the settings you have on the main page as BI will be pulling the stream from the Media Profile. When I had the camera on BI with those settings I did not really notice a difference in image quality in BI... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
See the attached images for the settings I was using with BI. I was running BI demo version 5.9.9.11 and UI3 worked well on my Windows 10 PC with Chrome, iPhone with Safari and Windows 11 PC with Chrome. I set the ONVIF account to administrator and made the user/pass the same as the cameras... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
I agree with @wittaj, Axis cameras are a different ball game and take a little getting use to if you're coming from Dahua cameras. I've noticed Dahua cameras are very granular when it comes to image and exposure settings where Axis cameras don't have as much customizability (They're still... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
For Face ID you really don't want to go anything higher than 6 or 7 feet depending on the location. My driveway camera is mounted around 7 feet and my front door is mounted around 5.5 feet (If I were to do it again I might go slighter higher but stay under 6 feet). It's important to stay under... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
Sorry I thought I captured that. Tone mapping is also set to 50. 3.50 meters is is about 11.5 feet which is much higher than I would mount to get a good face capture but as an overview camera it will probably be good. -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
When I first started using Axis cameras it was a little bit of a learning curve. Most of the settings you need to change in Dahua cameras to optimize them do not need to be changed in Axis cameras. Axis cameras usually handle the scene well at their default settings except for a few settings... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
1. Yes, Axis does not support a day/night profile like Dahua. However, there are some settings that can be adjusted on a schedule or with event rules. I'm using the same settings for both day/night in different locations and it's working really well for me. I don't have a need for different... -

What Axis Camera Stream Config do you use w/BI… GOP, FPS,
When you add an Axis camera to ACS Edge, it creates a custom stream profile under System- Stream Profiles. For whatever reason, those stream settings add additional compression than the default settings on the camera. ACS Edge uses those stream profiles. I recommend using the camera's default... -

Axis S20-series NVR compatibility (s2006/2016/2024)
These are old and no longer supported recorders. The minimum requirements for ACS Pro start at a 7th gen intel processor, however, the ACS 5 minimum requirements appear to be the the same. If they're running ACS 5 without an issue I would imagine it can handle ACS Pro also. If you look at the...- smiticans

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
I have one 60 watt rectangle LED dusk to dawn light for the driveway. The light is mounted a few feet behind the camera and a foot or two above it. I got it on Amazon a few years ago so I don't remember the specific specs of it. The front door has a single A21 style LED light bulb. It consumes... -

How to set up P1468-LE with Blue Iris
Np! The low light sensitivity is pretty similar to the Color 4K-T but Axis has much better image processing where it can handle challenging lighting conditions (direct sunlight, half the image is in the shade and half has strong sunlight, floodlight is shining on a face etc.). If you open the... -

Which Axis OS version does your camera have? Axis OS 11 LTS (Long Term Support) is the latest LTS OS and Axis OS 12 is the latest Active Track OS. LTS only provides security updates where the active track provides security and feature updates. The most recent P1468-LE camera I received still had... -

I Ordered an Axis Communications Axis Q1808-LE Camera
The dome is definitely dirty and/or has moisture inside of it. Can you physically get to the camera to check if its dirty or has moisture inside of it? This is an important step to continue troubleshooting the issue. Not that it's going to make much of a difference at the moment, but if you... -

Axis still sells 1mp cameras. The Q6074-E is the current model of the PTZ discussed in this threat. AXIS Q6074-E PTZ Network Camera | Axis Communications I do agree with you that the camera is most likely 10 years old or older. The AXIS Q6054 Mk II series was discontinued in 2018. I don't... -

I Ordered an Axis Communications Axis Q1808-LE Camera

I Ordered an Axis Communications Axis Q1808-LE Camera
When did you purchase this camera? The Q6054 is really old and software updates ended in 2022 (For reference, Axis cameras usually get about 10 years of updates depending on the model). In addition to it being really old with an old image sensor/ processor, I don't even think this camera has IR... -
