    Hikvision DS-2CD4A85F-IZH

    Thank you for letting me know that I can't plug an IP camera directly into a TV via the Ethernet port. Now I haven't checked this out yet, but I just bought a 4k TV for the very purpose of monitoring 7-10 4k cameras, some of which will be static focal lengths while two will be PTZ. Now this...

    Hikvision DS-2CD4A85F-IZH

    I'll check into 123... Thanks. What is your Hik camera connected to? Is it possible to order just the camera and test it without Blue Iris SW+HW or NVR? I'm looking to keep my 1080P system intact to continue monitoring, but it's incompatible with this camera. The ideal situation would be for...

    Hi RyanODan, I'd like some info on what you have. I'm interested in 7 4k cameras plus an NVR or a Blue Iris driven system. I'd like the pros and cons of both. I'd like to know what you think is a good bang for the buck 4k camera. I prefer quality over cost consideration.

    Hi Eugene, I'm also looking at 4k cameras and ran acaross the Hikvision DS-2CD4A85F-IZH, which is the bullet camera. I located one on ebay for $902 (includes shipping). Is this the same camera you are looking at? Where can I contact "taobao?" TYVM

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    Impressive camera for $170, but I don't see that much delta between my present system and this camera. I might add that I'm more concerned about daylight video than night time. I do intend to spend more money than $200 for each camera, but if 4 mpixel and/or UHD isn't ready for prime time, then...

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    Camera administration issues are what I've experienced with my Swann kit NVR7200. On top of that, I encountered a problem with camera presentation. It has several modes of camera presentation on the LCD TV monitor, but only one can be set up correctly. If I set up all 3 multiple camera...

    Audio

    Yes, the laws in this state applying to audio seem to be more stringent than video; however, I've conducted an exhaustive search of the statutes and it appears to be legal to record voice when the person(s) cannot expect reasonable privacy. It goes on to give examples like if someone can hear...

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    Well, that's what I meant. If you could get a lens that gathers more light to inpinge on the sensors or make the sensor bigger to have more but bigger pixels, it could be done, right? I didn't know the Hubble was low resolution. It originally had a problem with being out of focus, but they...

    Audio

    So far I've seen all posts are related to video, but I admit that I haven't done a search for audio. Does anyone know if audio can be incorporated into the Ethernet stream that carries the video? Does anyone know of microphones that can hear voices from 30 feet in a somewhat unidirectional...

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    When you say the above, do you mean "doesn't equal better quality" or "doesn't necessarily equal better quality." I've always experienced that if everything else matched the improved higher megapixel quality, you would indeed get a better picture or video. For example, if the lens gathered...

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    When you say "getting the cameras on the network initially with fixed IPs, are you saying that Dahua or Hikvision cameras come with floating IPs and you have to connect them directly to a computer, find them, talk to them and tell them to fix their IP to one single and unique address? What is...

    Question on Hikvision NVRs

    I'm new on this forum, nayr, and I presently have an 8 channel NVR with 7 1080P cameras. I want to get away from it and go to a better system, because I feel the cameras aren't that great of quality. My question here is if an NVR with POE is simple and plug n play without much networking...

    back door thieves apprehended

    "Unfortunately, they were caught by K-9 on the other side of the fence." You mean "Fortunately they were caught..." :) Nice video and outcome. We like it!
