    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    Hmm - I wonder if that is the actual lens, since the specification states "5MP HD 3.6mm Board Lens". But - looking at the camera disassembled by @hamsoplo it seems that the lens is marked [mega pixel 5mm 1:2.2 1/2"]. I would have thought it would read 3.6mm...

    $69 motorized varifocal 4x (2.8mm-12mm) Longse

    yeah - but the huisun firmware is more familiar to Hikvision installers. Too bad Huisun doesn't offer the motorized varifocal sans pan/tilt.

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    @klasipca, thinking about purchasing a Longse LBL60S500 - can these IMX178 + Hi3516A units be ordered with different lens? I see the sheet states 5MP HD 3.6mm Board Lens... can that be changed to 12mm? I have a Hik DS-2CD2632 that needs replacing, and the location covers a long driveway (160Ft...

    who sells full english NOT hacked english hik cams?? 2335 or what ever.?

    Perhaps asking @milkisbad would help - he has 3mp turrents (CMIP3032 - i believe here). Haven't bought from him yet, but others in this forum have.

    4MP and Synology Surveillance Station

    I have a DS-2CD2342WD-I with DSM 6.0 / SS 7.2 (yes, both beta). Cam is using ONVIF - SS found it & is recording events (motion, etc) - but playback via LiveView / Timeline is broken. IE can play back the files individually (using the plugin) if selected from Filestation. DS-Cam works without...

    HIKVISION mtd Brick Recovery Guide

    Thanks @whoslooking I believe this was a brown box unit. Was unable to locate Baseline Firmware_IPC_En_V5.2.0 140721 (2XX2) - damn Hik site requires password to download and their registration system doesn't seem to be working. Assuming that I need a CN Lang version. I did find on the Europe...

    HIKVISION mtd Brick Recovery Guide

    Yeah - getting frustrating. Actually, label on the camera reads V5.3.0_150513 - which is why I focused on that version. Tried 5.20, 5.23 & 5.16 - no changes. Unless anyone has a better idea, I'm packing this one up to go back.

    HIKVISION mtd Brick Recovery Guide

    Yes, tried that one (and retried over IPC_R0_EN_STD_5.3.0_150513) no luck. Using the EN and CN firmware version 5.3.0_150513 & hiktools, I tried the following combinations (where -> refers to changing language with hiktools): EN = nothing (no SAPD, no ping) CN = min system mode EN -> CN = min...

    HIKVISION mtd Brick Recovery Guide

    No luck - telnet didn't work post TFTP / pre-reboot. putty to 192.168.1.64 would report connection refused. Interesting enough, the only firmware that would give the TFTP response "Device[192.0.0.64] system update completed! was IPC_R0_EN_STD_5.3.0_150513 - but once I reboot the camera, it...

    No Joy - can ping device but can't telnet (or ssh) - system refused, never get the prompt to enter user /pass. Will try the CN firmware & report back. RE: Europe files - given that the camera is a CC.. variant, would those actually work?

    Mini PTZ 2nd Gen: 2016 PTZ Camera of the year!

    Thanks - I did see @klasipca mention that v2 fixed motion - which sounded promising. But I was wondering if different grid areas (1,2, etc) could be defined and have PTZ events triggered when detection occurs (as in, if there is movement on grid 2, move to coordinate x/y and zoom until motion...
