    Anyone Else Seeing Memory Card Issues With Dahua IPC-HFW2831T-ZS's ?

    I am having a similar issue with a IPC-HDBW4431FP-AS writing to a Samsung Endurance micro SDXC 128GB card. Camera software does not allow playback but am wondering if the card only will play video once inserted in a PC.

    Turret Mount Ethernet Cable Hole

    So I bought my first turret camera 5831R... and I made my soffit (wood) hole too large. I did not realize nor thought that the turret base would have gaps in the base... my fault for missing it. That said... What should I use to keep bugs out of the larger hole I made that the camera wire goes...

    Intel I-9 Proc

    Your right. Even with 4K cameras based on what I researched factoring 16 cameras I was thinking there would be a significant gain but you nailed it.

    2Mp Starlight turrets

    You think the turret 2mp turret starlight is a better selection for residential than a starlight bullet?

    What are some of the better bullet cameras

    Well I was not sure if the larger / medium PTZ units needed extra power from a separate transformer.
  19. botics

    What are some of the better bullet cameras

    Thanks helps. For a PTZ should I install a 12/24 volt transformer to run power... reading that separate power is a great idea.

    What are some of the better bullet cameras

    Should I go with 2MP starlight bullets or look for higher resolution? Yet, instead of bullet cameras around my home should I go with turrets instead?

    IPC-HFW2831T-ZS Is this the camera?

    What are some of the better bullet cameras

    Can you give me some guidance on which bullet camera I should go with in terms for a residential install for myself. Upon reading the cliff notes and wiki I see a lot of 2MP starlight models recommend however should I take a look at a higher resolution bullet? I will be using BI. Thanks
