Okay, I was looking for that setting and have done that before on my smaller camera. Seems like I couldn’t find the force color option. But I’m going to look again today. It was like an ND filter getting stuck. I do use a lot of white light in the area at night. Thanks you.

I was able to force mine into color 24/7. That was a while ago and I do not remember where to find the setting for it.
I found it under camera settings/conditions/

Get some NEW refubished stocks in, stocks are in US. Can do free shipping for US orders. Just send me DM or email (kingsecurity2014@163.com ) for seize the stocks, lol.
+1 on an updated refurbished list.
Edit: O.K. now I see that the first post does in fact contain the updated list, my bad.
Also, have the 6mm lens versions of the IPC-T5442TM-AS become impossible to find? They seem to have dissappeared since shortly into the Black Friday sale.
One more question: what is the full story on the firmware on these 5442 series (as well as the ZE variants) as far as choosing between a working Smart IR and proper AI/IVS/Tripwire functionality? I see a lot a references to more recent firmware versions that seem to fix the Smart IR, but to the detriment of the other functions. It seems odd that we can't have both....
Edit: O.K., I finally found the appropriate massive thread (SMD 3.0 dahua) that covers it thoroughly. Just finished reading the whole thing though, and am still left slightly confused: can we have both a fast acting and accurate SMD 3.0 and working SmartIR together on the latest firmware for the 5442 series? Or are there still situations that favor the late 2020 releases?

You'll find that shipping is quick, on the items he has in stock.
edit: based on my own experiences of 7-8 orders (so far)
If he has the item is sitting in an Amazon warehouse, he can ship it from there even if you order from him directly. Obviously if you purchase it from his store on Amazon, you will get it within your normal Amazon time frames.
If the item has to come from Hong Kong, it is usually 3-4 days depending on where you are in the US. Contrast that with other unknown vendors on AilExpress that say it will be weeks.

Yes, PM as stated in the post on the first page.
Yes, I saw that, but wasn't sure if it was time corrected for any given location in the world, and on top of that the IPCT sale was going from early this morning, so not really a universal answer.
