    5.3.6 Firmware

    Is this video with 5.3.6 firmware or 5.3.3? If 5.3.6 would you mind posting a night-time clip of you ordering Thuisbezorgd.nl again but with 5.3.3 for comparison?

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    You're comparing a 2MP Darkfighter with 0.002 Lux with a 4MP entry-level camera with 0.01 Lux. That's comparing apples to oranges. If you need resolution/detail, the 4MP is king. If you need night coverage with lower resolution, the Darkfighter series can't be beat. Can you post some...

    They do not. The 4MP resolution is 2688×1520 as per the spec sheet, which is close to 16:9.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    I bought mine at www.aliexpress.com/store/product/DS-2CD2542FWD-IS-English-version-Hikvision-4MP-WDR-mini-dome-ip-camera-audio-alarm-10m-IR/1187561_32362872728.html

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    And I tend to think that the image is clearer at the edges because the lens in front of the sensor is flat, instead of half a globe.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    From what I"ve been told they're western region cams with factory-installed English firmware and future firmware upgrade possibility with files directly from Hikvision.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    Thanks for this explanation! I wasn't sure what WDR would actually do, but now I know. Unfortunately I don't think I can create a scene with both direct sunlight ánd shade where I'm currently living, I'll leave that for another forum member. Fyi, I've removed the images to keep the thread clean.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    (images removed as they don't show WDR) I'll try to get some good night shots tonight when I have the time. I also wanted to see how the cam performs with IR, but haven't had enough time during the night to actually fiddle with it.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    @fenderman yes, it is. And I'm confident if I can have some time with it to tweak it I can get a much better picture out of it without using IR. Give me a few days :)

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    I don't mind the wait or the uncertainty, I've just now ordered a DS-2CD2542FWD-IS. The specs for these cams are too great to wait. Hope to receive it within the next month or so. I'll update this thread with details once I've received it.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    That's quite some time from now, too bad. Oh well, I'll wait it out. Spec for spec these cams are worth double the price of the 3MP model imho and worth the wait.

    If you can't find them on Hikvision's site, here's the link: http://overseas.hikvision.com/en/products_157.html No idea on pricing by the way, I'm hoping they'll be along the same line as the 3MP 2-series.

    Carl, the owner of Network Camera Critic, passed away

    A true loss for the community. I've spent hours reading through his blogposts pondering what model cams to buy. He has been a great help and I was shocked to read that he passed away. All the best to his family in this time.
