    DaHua NVR5216-16P-4KS2 firmware upgrade questions.

    My NVR is the 4KS2E. Some have been successful. It is recommended to update in steps instead of one giant leap. I did three steps to upgrade to the latest firmware

    Lorex NVR -- Two buildings, 2 NVR's, one monitor?

    I've had Lorex since 2020 and there's only one thing I like about it, the mobile app (when it doesn't crash). The mobile app is very intuitive and simple to use. Most reviews of a notification can be done in 1 or 2 taps and is very straight forward. The cameras and the NVRs on the other hand...

    Mounts for 5442 ZE

    Just one thing with the PFB203W. It can limit your camera positioning vertically, especially if you're using a varifocal or long lens camera. I have a location where I used one of these mounts and with the camera zoomed in, I couldn't angle the camera height high enough to center the region of...

    Mounts for 5442 ZE

    For soffit mounting, I typically don't use a junction box. I use a weatherproof coupling and stuff it in the soffit then mount to the soffit

    PTZ5A4M-25X vs PTZ4M-25X

    You could even dial back the exposure on the 5A. Exposure is overcooked, especially in the foreground. You have a TON of ambient lighting (post lighting, accent lighting). Not many will have this much light available. Everyone's application will be different.
