    Thanks, is auto iris something they may implement again in future? Or likely gone for good? Just made me wonder if they just haven't put it back yet because it's a totally different firmware to the 32 series cameras. The backend looks more like the NVR now. It did feature on the 32 version of...

    What is the build quality and design like? I've been pretty impressed with the hikvision build quality, cast metal casings, use of gold on the circuit boards.

    Just been reading some reasonably good feedback on China Security Wholesale. Also says on their business page, They sell quite a few china region brown box versions with hacked English firmware running 5.3... but say they cannot be updated, then link to what they advertise as English...

    Hi, Was looking at the China wholesale security last night. They have 100% feedback, 253 feedback, all seems positive. Just don't want to get stung because I have to order 5 of them! Which is a lot of money, next concern Is how much import tax. Buy the price, if genuine, on the world...

    Here in the uk the price on the World Region cams is roughly £100 more than the China region ones. Roughly $149 more. after this bad lot of eBay cameras I did enquire about genuine ones from a uk distributor and because it is around £100 more each, was looking at a minimum addition £500. which...

    Think there's something iffy with them. doesnt really seem to add up, serials on box and label different to camera, the Dev code wrong with correct model number and world region serial. why would somebody play around with them in that way? are they rejects or something possibly? dont know if...

    Hikvision Camera problem

    Can I correct that without causing it to brick the unit? Just had a look now you mention it, I think somebody's been playing with the labels, because none of the serials match the boxes, all the boxes are dated 2015, the style between the China region one label and world region ones are also...

    Hikvision Camera problem

    Just a thought, but would it be a possibility that the seller or person they imported from in China... Thought it was usual Chinese stock, and modified the flash as per usual so it runs in English? But either modified wrong part, or modified an already world region unit causing the problem?
