I am used to turrets these days but wondering has anyone got any reviews on either the 2CD2T42WD-I5 or the 2CD2T42WD-I8?

A guy wants me to install a few cams and the reason I am looking at these two over turrets, is the location outside of a building with the sun beaming at them and thought from experience, turrets get 'blinded' by the sun.

Also, is there a noticeable difference in the IR between these cams? Very little between the two in price terms.
 
i8 has twice the IR LED's (4 vs 2) so has more power for more range. Does your installer not have any recommendations for cameras?
 
I am the one doing the installation for a friend so it's up to me to choose the cameras.
 
Sorry, mis-read. Sun shiled will help but you could just be trading sun glare for spider webs that will affect the night vision more (bigger problem imo), can also play with BLC and set up a image setting shedule.
