i'll go look at the 8500 system, thanks

anything i can get in that price range for a used box to run a few cameras? I just need to record and review footage

I want to have at least 2 dahua cameras. I have one camera now on my primary desktop. I want to have a second desktop just for the dahua cameras. What computer specs do i need? will this be able to handle my needs...

Smart thinking. My goal when I get back home is to use home automation and have a rule set to where if the motion sensor is triggered, all the exterior lights (either front part, or rear part) come on and stay on for x minutes....something that makes it so its not too long, but is long enough...

copy that. Thanks. I am so sold on this camera already contacted Andy. I'm still away from home but hopefully i make it home soon. It looks like a great camera for night. 'preciate your efforts

Hello OP, how dark is the actual scene? I am new to these cameras and my eyes can't determine ambient light prior to the motion lights turning on. Those cameras look great, and earning each penny it looks like. Thanks

since i only have the one camera at the moment, its set up on its own network via switches and its own router. I purchased this thinking I'd scale up with more cameras but at the time he one camera was fine.. I'd like to have an offline ecosystem which includes the cameras. However I'd like...

I started a thread with the SAME EXACT question. I deleted it after searching and found this thread. My situation is slightly different. I still have my HDW 5231R-ZE but I want a second camera. Based on your responses above I think I'll go with the T5442T-ZE. And they have it in black, even...

i dont want to start a new thread..... but looking for a smaller version of this for outdoor use. im ready to buy my second outdoor camera but i need a smaller footprint. thanksss

I haven't had this issue before and i don't remember changing settings on my camera. I have the 5231R-ZE. Last night before I went to bed (2300 hours) I hit the record button on blue iris. Woke up and went to review my clips. I noticed my clips dont start until 0638 hours this morning. Also...

it is ridiculous (awesome) how this camera uses light. I looked out my window and its pitch dark outside. My naked eye can't see my car in the parking lot. There is a tiny hint of a shiny object which turns out to be light from a distance reflecting off my headlight. If you didn't know my...

has anyone tried to spray paint or alter the color of this camera? i need to darken the color to black

your budget is low considering you'll need lense(s). look for canon 30d, 40d, 50d. Those go for about $150 for the body only. you can get a new 50mm 1.8 lens for another $99. That should get you going until you reach your limitations (needing a wider lens, zoom lens, etc). you will...

Im a bit slow. had windows 10 and for the life of me never was able to find IE, only Edge. Apparently I'm not as bright as I thought with windows 10. I managed to search for IE and found it.

Edit: Disregard reply below. IE (NOT Edge) works. I apparently tried to find IE in the past and only found Edge. Deep down inside i hate microsoft ********** (("When I use internet explorer i get an error message about a plugin. attempting to install the plugin tells me plugin is only...

THANKS to this thread for the help Can't detect CAM in BI

Ordered the Dahua 5231 ZE via Andy, it arrived in the US in a speedy 6 days. Impressed with the speed/service. A diagram should be attached of my current setup, dahua and PC both connected to the router, no switch. I have a TP Link SG1005P that is unused. The camera is powered with a 12V...

I was hoping to get some advice on a GPS tracking device, one that actually works accurately. My car was broken into about 10 days ago and ive been on the defense. My car got broken into again this morning. Im steamed. I need a small device that can be placed in a bag/box such that if and...

im only commenting to say i liked the birdhouse idea. that's what im going to try one day. im a novice, about to order my camera too... let me know how you get your phone hooked up to all this

sounds good. i'll get with andy. thanks

I have not seen reviews of these two cameras online or anywhere else. I was wondering if anyone has experience with any of these two and how they compare to something like the IPC-HDW5231R-ZE for outdoor low light. N24BG52 EOL: 2MP IR 2.8mm IP Mini Eyeball – Dahua North America (replaced by...

@looney2ns those videos are great. on the Dahua HDW2231RP "no light" video, do you happen to have a photo or video of the actual ambient light using a non IR camera? I'm trying to gauge how dark the ambient lighting is and how it would appear to the naked eye, vs the lighting captured on the...

@looney2ns: I don't need audio but its nice to have. No preference. I don't plan on using the IR through glass. @tangent: I plan on installing the camera right outside my window.

This seemed like the best forum to start, if it is not i apologise. I need a single outdoor camera recommendation with great (best) night time capabilities. I don't necessarily need to have the ability to identify a person by facial recognition i simply need the ability to monitor whether a...

new here. currently in the usa (not sure if this is an international site). looking for help in purchasing outdoor surveillance camera. thanks
