Yeah, these cams is what we plan to sell soon, stock ready around in 10days, i am watching on them. Will post online soon.

I will be anxious to see what the night time video quality is.

I have some videos made from HAC-HFW3802 - this is the same sensor.

I'm planning to make some tests with IP version of this camera. I have fixed lens HFW1831 and varifocal HFW2831

wooo, you are faster than us, our new ones ready next week, lol.

IPC-HFW1831E this one i also get now, try to post it online soon.

I can't wait to see how these compare side by side with 2MP starlights.

The sensor is potentially better. A 1/2.8" sensor versus a 1/2" sensor with this camera.

 

[bp2008]

Perhaps. In theory a larger sensor will produce better quality images, but a 1/2" sensor is only about 2x the size of a 1/2.8" sensor, while containing 4x as many pixels, so the pixels are still smaller on the higher resolution camera. How much that actually matters depends on too many other variables such as the lens and the specific sensor technology.

Did anybody notice they updated their specs on the Dahua website? It explains a LOT! lol (the whole too good to be true lux ratings are starting to make sense):

 

[tomw]

If that is true about the sensor that will make a nice difference for night vision. I have been buying the Hikvision varifocal version with that sensor and it is a good one. I might have to upgrade a few cameras yet again. Hahahaha

Edit: I forgot that this is a 8MP carmera. It will be interesting to see the night pictures.

Strange. There is no Hikvision camera with this sensor.

Strange indeed. I have two of them. Here is the model number. DS-2CD4A26FWD-IZH8

 

[bp2008]

You mean this?

 

[Thickice]

*Eagerly awaits comparison pictures*

 

[Parley]

Here is a night picture from my Hikvision DS-2CD4A26FWD-IZH8. It is a varifocal with a 8-32mm lens. The first car is across the street and 4 houses down. It also does very well with people walking at night. No blurring.

First of all 1.8" 2.0mpx from Hikvision is Sony sensor, so it's completely different. Bigger pixel, better low light.

Second, I see that Dahua messed something up. First version of HFW1831 and HFW2831 was 1/2" Omnivision sensor with enhanced low light "my previous videos).

New version is 1/1.8", I have no idea who is making this sensor. I will check this out.
Now I'm a little bit worried. 1/2" was great, best 4k image I ever had with this price

Could it be they are using the new Sony IMX334LQR instead? It was announced a while back.
