Getting comfortable
I want to buy my first 5442 turret. No need for zoom or mic. Is this a ”real” 5442? It is made by Loryta:

unifi video is the predecessor of unifi protect. this is about remote access to your nvr via unifi cloud with a 7 years old nvr setup.I thought they were dropping support for the cameras? Or is only some models?

you can and should compare them. in the end you want a readable plate or good enough picture of faces and other body details. law enforcement or insurance company´s do NOT care about sensor size and MP, they only care about results.You cannot compare two different resolutions that on the same size sensor.... of course the lower MP outperformed the higher MP at night - the lower MP will almost always outperform a higher MP on the same sensor at night because the higher MP camera needs more light.
thats why we have a "darkroom" for our customers.It is simple LOL do not chase MP - do not buy a 4MP camera that is anything other than a 1/1.8" sensor. Do not buy a 2MP camera that is anything other than a 1/2.8" sensor. Most 4k are on the same sensor as a 2MP and thus the 2MP will kick its butt all night long as the 4k will need 4 times the light than the 2MP... 4k will do very poor at night unless you have stadium quality lighting (well a lot of lighting LOL).
My 2MP kicked my neighbors 4K butt....you missed the entire point of the post about comparing different resolutions on the same sensor as that is obvious what the outcome will be...just like a 4K camera on a 1/1.2 inch sensor will kick the 2MP on a 1/3 sensor...but if 4k and 2MP are on the same 1/3 sensor, then the 2MP will usually win at night.you can and should compare them. in the end you want a readable plate or good enough picture of faces and other body details. law enforcement or insurance company´s do NOT care about sensor size and MP, they only care about results.
With almost any light, the ColorVu is a great camera, but it does need some light. Members here with streetlights have posted some incredible night video with motion.Thankyou, that’s helpful.
Years ago (20?) I had a Canon digital camcorder (remember when tape was a recording medium!) and it had colour at low light....it’s exactly as you say, motion blur so bad due to slow shutter speed.
I saw the colorvu ones and thought technology had improved in those 20 years and watching videos online they look good....but now you mention it, I don’t think any of the videos I’ve seen show movement.
