Hi all....could someone please advise me if the popular
IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E is setup for PAL ? I will be using it here in Australia.
If it is NTSC will that be an issue when connecting to PAL monitors/TV's ?
thanks Chaza
 
It doesn't matter. It is simply a pull down in the camera to pick one versus the other.

I have done set it both ways and see it whether it is PAL or NTSC.

PAL/NTSC is not a problem for IP ones, but anyway, the firmware still offer pal/ntsc optional.

The choice of PAL and NTSC system can affect how the camera reacts to flickering lamps, and this is related to the frequency of the power supply. In Australia, the frequency is 50 Hz, so you need to select PAL.
