You could probably use it on a smaller diameter pole than 3" if you purchased some smaller straps. That's what I did with the PFA-152. Straps are inexpensive at Lowe's.

The product description shows: 3.15”-5.91”

The audio setting that has worked best for me is AAC encoding at 64000 sampling rate. Also, I leave the noise filter "off" and made a foam windscreen to place over the mic on the camera. I took some old microphone windscreens, cut them up and attached them to all of my cameras with Command strips.

I have found the compression artifacts to be less when using H.264H with this camera. I tried both H.264 and H.264H, and could see a noticeable difference in the image.

Here are the settings I have been using. (street illuminated by one streetlight---camera illumination turned off)

Oops, the link above is for the receiver only. Here is the link for both transmitter and receiver...

Look about five or six posts above and you will see the link i posted for the transmitter and receiver I purchased. I had tried others before this particular model, and none worked reliably until I found this one. I’ve never lost a signal or had to reset anything since I have been using it.

I find it easy to click one button on a tv remote, and the picture will come up instantly on any of the four tv's in my house. As I am typing this to you, I clicked on the tv in my living room, and it took only a couple seconds to show this image of my cameras. Also, wired is always going to be...

I would definitely attach a camera to a temporary mount that could be moved around to test the area. Looks like there is going to be a problem with shadows and highlights in that placement. You need to see what it will look like in the day and night before committing to a final location.

Setting the resolution for 4096x1216 works really well for me. Also, I leave WDR "off." Having it turned "on" shows the center where the view of the two lenses meet.

BootCamp will work great on an older MacBook with Windows 10. You will be able to access everything with Internet Explorer. One note: SmartPSS is awful on the older MacBook. SmartPSS only runs reliably on the newer M1/M2 chip Macs.

On my MacMini running Sonoma 14.1.2, Safari was working great with the WEB 5.0 interface, until the most recent update from Apple. I had to switch over to Google Chrome Version 120.0.6099.109 to gain full access again. For any of my older cameras not running WEB 5.0, I have to either run...

The IPC 4K-X is a great camera. I use two of my three to detect parked cars. The first thing I noticed with your setup is that the detection area is very small and at the top of the coverage area. The 4K-X is most sensitive to the center area of the window, and with the extreme difference in...

Agree with everything Wittaj recommended; in addition, always envision an area as three-dimensional rather than two-dimensional when drawing a detection area or detection lines. Frequently I have noticed that detection areas people draw out and then post here outline where a body would stand...

I had one of those at a previous house back in the early 2000's. Worked well and the Installation was simple; just plugged it into the outlet for the garage door opener mounted on the ceiling. Still have it in a box in my new garage, so if yours ever breaks, you can have this one.

Just now I just did a quick experiment with a T180 camera I have facing the street. In the static picture you can see a street sign that is 68' from the camera. In the attached video, I zoomed in on the sign in FCP. First with all settings the same except for H.264.H compression, and the second...

I cut up some foam mic windscreens (black and white) and attached them over the mic holes to my cameras by using Command picture-hanging strips. They work well and are easy to remove (without camera finish damage), if I need to take them off.

I finally got around to making a video that demonstrates the 4K-X cameras (2.8mm, 3.6mm, and 6mm). Just for the heck of it, I also included the Color 4K T180 at the end. One of the things I have found difficult when setting up cameras is guessing which camera will work best at a specific...

I like each or the variations of the Color 4K-X cameras, but they must be used in specific applications. The 2.8mm is the best overview camera I have used. The low light capability (with color) is unmatched. Even with the aperture at 1.0, the depth of field is very good. I've swapped it out with...

I have three Color 4K-X cameras running in my system: 2.8mm, 3.6mm, and 6mm. The firmware on each is: MultiLang_NP_Stream3_V2.840.15OG00D.0.R.220818.bin Working perfectly with no problems at all.

I can’t comment on some of your points, but for a couple I can lend the experiences I have had: #2. I never upgrade the firmware on a new camera, unless it is to correct a known problem or fix a security risk. When I got the camera a few months ago, I found (as another IPcam member has also...

This is the transmitter that I use with four receivers. I had to try a few before finally finding this one that works perfectly. LINK...

I connect the HDMI output from my NVR to an extender, and then I plug that into a 5-port gigabit switch, and then I have receivers for four tv's in various rooms of the house. Works great. A wireless keyboard with trackpad connects to my NVR, so I can control the NVR from any room in the house.

Maybe I missed it, but what are your noise reduction settings? Set too high will lead to softening of the image.

As Wittaj mentioned above, I found the bullet to have much better IR illumination. The bullet is rated at 50 meters, whereas the turret is 40 meters. Optics seem about the same. No appreciable difference. The big difference is the mounting options. I prefer bullet mounts, but at some locations...

I am using a MacMini with a M1 chip, and it is working fine with SmartPSS. Can you post a screenshot of what is happening? This is what it looks like on my Mac after clicking <Device CFG> .

The 4K-X uses the same firmware that you used on your IPC-T5442TM. Firmware for the 4K-T is different.

Did you do a factory reset of the camera?

That shouldn't be happening. I have almost the same situation with one of my 4K-T cameras on my driveway, so may I suggest something? On your "Picture" settings, set everything (brightness, contrast, saturation, sharpness, gamma) at their default setting of "50." Then go to your "Exposure"...

Try manual exposure instead of AUTO.
