Review: Dahua 8MP / 4K 25x Starlight IR PTZ - PTZ5A4K-25X / SD5A825GA-HNR
All, I’m back in the saddle again with another review, this time for the EmpireTech PTZ5A4K-25X / SD5A825GA-HNR. Thanks to @EMPIRETECANDY for providing the unit in return for an unbiased no holds barred review. Good to see a new 8K on the block for testing and this time one of the first to... -

Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera
Yes both cameras are really good. The A180 is phenomenal as a 'Spotter' for your PTZ's so if people have those in the mix (hope you do) then consider throwing the A180 in there to assist. Great combo -

PTZ question for any of the newer Dahua auto tracking models.
Hey @Tinman, if you're talking about PTZ controls in the Dahua web interface (or even Dahua mobile apps) then YES, the experience certainly is 'disconnected' for want of a better description between you pressing or holding the controls to it actually moving. I test a lot of cameras and can... -

Are there any IP Cameras with stereo input?
Yes absolutely for broadcast production, I've used a number of PTZ's when deploying multiple cams between areas, rooms etc and live events. Like @looney2ns mentioned though, not cheap, especially if you want decent sensors with low noise and good quality output -

Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera
Sorry for the delay in response (see my status update for background there) but in answer to your question, a) YES I highly recommend Samsung Pro Endurance, did a test on multiple SD cards a year or so back and they are my preferred that I use in personal and deployment purposes, b) the E-PTZ... -

Wildcat's Status
Wildcat’s Status All, it seems like it’s been a LOOOOOOONG time since I posted (and to be fair, it has been a lot longer than I would have liked). Unfortunately this past month has had a crazy number of storms in the area that have been pretty impactful. Tornado warnings that, luckily, while... -

Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera

Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera
All, as promised here is the night test and tutorial for the ITC-437. As I mention, very capable camera but you do need to dial this one in carefully due to a) the 4MP sensor needing more light than its 2MP predecessor b) there is NO day/night schedule so you have to set a happy medium setting... -

All, just an update, been heads down in editing and pleased to say the night test / tutorial is almost complete. Tried to cram as much info as I can into this one to assist those watching it. As always though, reach out with questions either via the comments on the video or DM here. For those... -

Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera
Couple of quick updates on the reboot and video situation: 1 - Found a potential race condition in code which I've made Dahua dev aware of. As I mentioned above, definitely a perfect storm situation but does exist so made aware so they can address 2 - This test unit has other issue exacerbating... -

I’ll see if I can mock up yours on the test unit as well but I haven’t seen the issue you’ve spoken about in my testing. -

Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera
A number of tasks at once with multiple streams being sent to different platforms. Noticed the reboot on 2 different units. Cam will just all of a sudden reset even though POE power is good. It’s definitely a case of perfect storm where sometimes you’ll get a good run without issues and then at... -

Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera
Quick update. The ‘random reboot’ issue I reported up front to Dahua Dev as I saw this early on in testing. The more I push the cam, the more I see this. I’ve tested across a large number of enterprise grade POE switches and varying known good cables and it persists so I’ve followed back up with... -
