Here are some clips of the SD6AE830V-HNI from Dahua, their 4k PTZ
When I bought this cam over a year ago it was listed as a 8mp PTZ. Effective Pixels 3840 x 2160 8 Megapixels hence 830v, but it is also list 12Megapixel STARVIS™ CMOS on their site.

It does have:
12mp @ 4000 x 3000 @ 20 fps bitrate 13824 kb/s
8.8mp @ 4096 x 2160 @ 30 fps 16384
8.2mp @ 3840 x 2160 @ 30 fps 16384
2mp @ 1920 x 1080 @ 30fps 10752
1280 x 1024 7680
1280 x 960 7168
1280 x 720 5632
At 12mp it gets a little pixilated when moving the cam around. So for me the sweet spot was 3840*2160 @30fps 10240 bitrate, recording to a 5208-4ks2 powered by 24VAC
Out of the ultra PTZ lineup this would be my least favorite PTZ that I own. It does have a great picture and real good IR but it falls short in a few areas
.
It does have the intelligence tracking ( tracking without rules ) but it doesn't mark the timeline like IVS will.
Auto track works pretty well in daylight but like most of the PTZ's it sucks ass at night.
This is a very good camera but my main complaint is the focus.
I don't know if I got a bad unit, but at full zoom the clarity is not there. If you back out it gets a little better.
The other issue is the focus speed at night. It has a hard time getting locked onto a focal point even at 1080.
It gets there, just not to quickly.
(3840*2160 if it gets uploaded by YouTube)
