5MP is going to be 4:3 and not 16:9 AR FYI..
I get adequate reads @ 720p, with your optics and camera pixels wont all that important.. at least not enough to pay +$100 for a measly extra MP.. save that money for IR or CUDA HW.
that angle looks doable, nice thats a culdesac so you get em both ways with a single camera.. I think your going to want to use pre-warping to get accurate reads.
And the 4MP Dahua looks to have much lower Lux than the 5MP I've seen so far.
Glad you think the angle is ok. I could go from the other corner of the house to reduce the angle but that would add another 30ft and need probably a 125mm lense.
ALPR does the pre-warping?
Another option is for me to place a small bullet camera at the street and mailbox. But the entails running CAT under the sidewalk and digging etc. Easier to deal with the angle I tihnk.
