    DS-2CD2135FWD-I vs DS-2CD2155FWD-I

    I just don’t get it. Is 4.3 better than 16.9? So confusing. I’m sick of looking at different cctv camera specs.

    DS-2CD2135FWD-I vs DS-2CD2155FWD-I

    Great informative reply Frank, very useful. However I’m still none the wiser regarding what is a Darkfighter and what is not. Am I right in saying that the 2Mp gives a better night image as less/bigger pixels than the 3Mp.

    DS-2CD2135FWD-I vs DS-2CD2155FWD-I

    So let me get this right :banghead: The 2Mp model is Low Light darkfighter? Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co. Ltd. The 3 Mp model is Low Light only? Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co. Ltd. Even though the image sensor and lux figures are identical?

    DS-2CD2125FWD-I v DS-2CD2185FWD-I

    No facts in your statement just daft talk. Please give reason and evidence for your case of IP over Tvi.

    DS-2CD2125FWD-I v DS-2CD2185FWD-I

    Looks a great camera. No idea of the cost as I use a mate of a mate to get prices. There are sooo many cameras to choose from. I won’t be using Dahua as I only know Hikvision. I really don’t want to learn another manufacturers equipment.

    DS-2CD2125FWD-I v DS-2CD2185FWD-I

    I’m not bothered about line crossing etc only quality of the image. CCTV so confusing. I just don’t know if I can justify the 100% price difference between ip and tvi. Requirements are 12fps, 1080p resolution. No other feature is required. Tvi cost £215 IP cost £420

    DS-2CD2125FWD-I v DS-2CD2185FWD-I

    I have finally persuaded by brother-in-law to pay the extra and go with IP cameras rather than Tvi. He took some persuaded due to the higher cost and now i am trying to persuaded him to go 4K rather than 1080p. Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co. Ltd. Hikvision Europe The 4K camera is...

    TVI v IP Cameras

    I have the IP or Tvi decision to make for my brothers house. IP would be my preferred choice but ££ is what matters to my brother. The extra features of IP are of no use ti him as all he wants is a 1080p observation system. Tvi suits him fine.

    Camera placement strategy for alerts

    I’ve played around with these settings for hours and eventually came to the conclusion that motion detection is for indoors only. The changing weather changes the pixel colours which then triggers a false alarm. That said the area you are trying to cover is small so I would use just one red...

    New cam releases

    Nope. Only read the threads that interest me. For an 8 camera or less install Tvi is ideal imo. The cost being the deciding factor. Only benefit i can see of IP on a small install is that it is a cleaner install as no psu required.

    New cam releases

    Exactly. For a 1080p system with decent night images Tvi is perfect for residential and small commercial installs.

    Reason? Please justify the x3 cost of IP.

    New cam releases

    You can now get low light Tvi cameras for a third of the price of IP cameras. A no brainier for me.

    DS-2CE16D9T-AIRAZH

    I know this is a IP camera forum but i have a Hikvision Turbo question if i may. Maybe the forum could do with an AHD section? Anyway i have installed a DS-2CE16D9T-AIRAZH. The cable used is RG59 shotgun and the cable length run is 90 meters. At the Dvr i used a 2.5 amp in-line psu. However i...

    Hik-Connect App vs. iVms 4500

    Ok I get it now. Conclusion: get a new phone :-D Why do you have a windows phone? No one else does. A bit unfair to expect Hikvision to write an app for only one user :-D

    Hik-Connect App vs. iVms 4500

    Again i think you are trying to process too much data. Could be you're internet upload speed. Not sure what Hik recommend. What is you're mainstream/recording resolution(each camera)? What is you're mainstream/recording frame rate(each camera)?

    Hik-Connect App vs. iVms 4500

    Is this viewing the sub stream or the main stream? Default main stream is normal 25 frames per second. Depending on the resolution it is normally way to much data for the mobile network. I set up the sub stream as:

    Hik-Connect App vs. iVms 4500

    If you register with Hik connect you can then use iVMS-4500 without forwarding ports. I personally prefer iVMS-4500 to the Hik Connect app.
