Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

[triumph202]

I'm actually using the schedule to change Day/Night profiles. I run exposure auto during the day but set shutter to 1/100 at night. If you let it run auto at night the exposure time seems to get very long so as to cause images to blur due to motion. Makes ID difficult. Also like different WDR settings for day and night. Still learning though.

Yes, I've found the same. Leave it in auto and the default exposure time in low light is very long, resulting in motion blur if there is anything moving. Changing the gain helps a lot- default seems to be 50, up around 80 gives a big improvement in low light. WDR also works well at the lower end of the scale. Too high and everything loses detail.

Today will process another 110pcs shipping out, I think all aliexpress orders can be processed and some of the paypal ones can be OK.
26.March-29.March, i will go to dahua for a visiting and meeting, may get some good news back. For the emails may not check it intime, but you can send emails to me, this is easy for me.
Hope next week there is no problem for the stock issues again.

Thanks for all guys support.

Nice work. So, who wraps all the packages in that tight yellow bag that everything from China comes in?

It makes it easy as hell to point out in a mound of packages when I pick them up from fedex.

Patience bro, as you can see, he gets to everyone eventually.

I have a guy with a dead camera. He's not interested in patience, only a new working camera, lol. I was hoping to start a good point of order with Andy. We'll see.

Andy deals with people that make purchases of $20k+ at one time... and still has time to help us out... if you don't have patience, find another vendor.

I guess so. Sometimes time isn't a luxury. If this were a camera for me, I'd have the luxury. This camera needs to replace a dead camera on a business. It doesn't look like even a week would be enough to expect. Oh well. Anyone have another rec for a dahua seller? I'm not writing Andy off but if he's a volume dealer and weeks is the best to expect for singles, I can only buy from his store in certain situations.

Why not buy some inventory from him so you can avoid this next time?

Thats what I was thinking. When it is important to be able to replace a camera at a moment's notice, best to have some spares.
