Sorry, typod' the NTSC on NTFS. So, the supplied firmware on site here would be ok to flash the camera from PAL to NTSC and update it? Read that PAL is European and NTSC is N & S America. Plus, since all my other cameras are NTSC, I might as well flash this new one as well so all my cams are this way. Thanks

Well, got the new Dahua IPC-HFW5231E-Z5 camera all IP configured and flashed to the latest firmware and it still works. Just running it through its zoom and it sure doesn't seem like 7-35mm in the house, maybe it will be better outside when I mount it. I am going to need to buy an expanded switch or a second one since I am running out of POE slots. I should of thought of that when I got the first one.
I am still confused about what camera to choose in Blue Iris so BI will recognize it. Plus the Mic setup would be helpful also. It's the same bullet Mic that Nayr recommended and reviewed if I am not mistaken. I will search around forum and see if he posted this info, and I just missed it. No need to repeat a post if it is around, just point the way and I can retrieve the setup :).

I've had the best luck ordering from Aliexpress. I dont know how he can keep up with everyone's emails and messages.

Edited: I would keep an eye on his stores on Aliexpress...

Good news is IPC-HFW5231E-Z15 stock in now, lol~ anyone need just contact me. Get 5pcs today.
i assume that the Z15 is a typo of the Z5 rather than a nice hybrid of the Z5 and the Z12? :):banghead:
