LOL. While not the price of the 49225 PTZ, there are some existing models that come close in price to this new one. I was actually thinking it was going to be over $3k.

I do have an application on my farm where I could utilize the 40X optical zoom. My current 30X has a 5.9-177mm optical zoom and this new camera has a 6-240mm optical zoom. I am just having reservations on the cameras ability to illuminate well enough in a zero lux situation, which is what I have on my farm at night, to pull the trigger on a $1,900.00 camera right now.

Personally, for that kind of money, I'm waiting for a 4k/8MP version with 1/1.2" sensor for low light performance.

No Dahua want to sell you all there old tech first before they bring a 1/1.2" PTZ unlike Hikvision which is now on there EOL ( End Of Line ) :) Dahua still want to sell you 1/1.8" &1/2.8" sensors.

Might be a better and a much fairer comparison with the new Hikvision TandemVU but I would always still go for the older darkfighter DS-2DF8836IX-AEL(W) which has a excellent 2/3 cmos sensor and 8mp and separate fixed cameras.

The problem with ds-2sf8c442mxs-dlw is it's $3k USD state side. Also, it doesn't support POE because of it's 70w requirement.

As for DS-2DF8836IX-AEL(W), it's sensitivity (spec sheet) isn't as good as the Dahua. It's also $3k for whatever reason from a cursory search.

I wouldn't say it is a "problem" with the not having POE feature and running a separate power supply for most situations wouldn't be a problem.
The DS-2DF8836IX-AEL(W) would be in a different league to the NEW Dahua I would think ask Parley he has a Dahua with a 2/3 sensor and can be had on eBay Uk as a demo model for less than 1k

I would ALWAYS take a 2/3 sensor no matter what the sensitivity is over a 1/1.8" or 1/2.8" sensor and out the 3 mentioned above I would still go for the DS-2DF8836IX-AEL(W) for my situation and environment , your needs might be different.

Price difference I have no control over sorry but I know it is VERY expensive to send or receive parcels now from over the pond as my cousin now lives in Houston Texas.
