    Don't worry I haven't forgotten about this thread or the night video + the DM's :) just finished up a revisit comparison of the A180 to Hik vision and will be coming back to this one as soon as next week. Thanks

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    Does anyone know why when I try to draw trip wire it only allowing 3 points? Which browser are you using ? Also, I can’t get ePTZ display mode to work. It just stays 1 frame When you say 1 frame (you meant full screen as oppose to quadrant ? Same question as above but if using IE (or IE...

    All, as promised here is the 'revisit' video. Specifically this focuses on day comparison to the Hik camera + critically focuses on the aspect ratio differences between the cameras and shows you the new resolutions offered by the latest Dahua FW. Created at 5120 x 1800 to accommodate all...

    Yes as I mentioned before, E-PTZ metadata is saved and can be used by the SD card and/or Dahua NVRs with E-PTZ (those that do and will in the future as mentioned).

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    I haven’t seen E-PTZ FW yet on the 5832 as to be fair it is a newer feature to the NVR, released on cam first. I have seen the E-PTZ beta for the now EOL 5216, also an early version for the 52xx I/L and believe we’ll see it for the new 52xx EI (this years model) so that is a span of Wizsense &...

    Yeah E-PTZ is very good once you set it up and does expand the benefits and use cases of the camera. I’m glad to see the FW bugs and enhancements were integrated for the most part and has made this a more solid camera. There are a couple of issues I’m still chasing but it will get there :)

    It's useful locally (SD etc) AND on Dahua NVR's at this time. Although not all NVR's have E-PTZ enabled FW yet. I believe we'll see a FW push to shore up those that don't have it in April.

    I’ll work on the day video comparison. The E-PTZ I also showed in the original review, how to setup and how to use it

    You can also see how Hik loaded the bases in their favor with the bigger unit, gives more room for lens separation and less need for such a sharp angle BUT that comes with tradeoffs too that the Dahua does very well in providing answers for

    Yeah, like I said, the Dah 4096 x 1216 = 3.37:1 is the closest aspect ratio match for sure. I'll do an iPhone capture of my athletic build :) when I do the video

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    All, here is a quick stills comparison of both the Hik (single) and Dahua (multiple) resolutions on offer now as of the latest FW. Don't read anything about quality or cam balance into this as I pulled these quick and had to reduce quality to fit as an attachment here. Just wanted people to have...

    hahahahah, as I said before certainly not as sleek as the Dahua and (polarizing comment inbound), every time I use or deploy Hik's I remember how bad the web GUI still is in 2023 :(

    I have the Hik in hand (ok big hands :) ). I'm going to grab some simple resolution based video comparisons first and then will do a full blown comparison later. This one will be interesting in terms of showing each resolution the Dahua now offers in 1 timeline with the Hik as well so will be a...

    The Importance & My Recommended Usage of I-Frame, CBR vs VBR, Shutter Speed In Your Configurations

    Yes, you must separate BI (and some other NVR middleware) from HW based NVR's for sure as we've stated before. Hope this helps and keep the questions coming if you have any on this topic. Glad this has been useful for people
