Greetings from a retired Englishman living in Thailand. I'm not a bot :) Good site this, Thanks

I have the opportunity to buy two Dahua DH-IPC-HFW2449M-S-PRO 1/1.8" (doesn't say focal length) and one DH-IPC-HDW2449T-S-PRO 1/1.8" (2.8 mm) from an authorised Dahua retailer with full Dahua Thailand 3 year warranty for USD 248 including freight. I find that to be a very good price in Thailand. Normal price is USD 350.

Are they any good? For USD89 each? Old model? What's the catch?
Thank you
Michael

Not sure what the B stands for but the ones I will buy doesn't have it
I assume the B stands for bullet style camera or sometimes black.

I don’t see that these cameras have IR for night vision? If they don’t, you would have to run the white lights on the camera unless you have a decent amount of light on your property. I don’t know how much they are for you but I would look into the T54IR-S3 cameras. They are the camera most everyone recommends and they are up to date! That’s just my two cents!
 
those 2449-PRO are a new product - which no one in this forum ever tested yet...
there are cheapest model from a new WizColor category - which have a very good night performance, but everything else is cut to lowest price point...

They are only Full Color cams - so they don't have IR (infrared) and don't see IR.
So to work they require some white light - external one or turn on internal ones..
Not so much for internal (inside house) use - for that You need IR...

B means black

Much more interesting / universal are line up TIOC-PRO 3449-PRO.
the same category (WizColor) and night performance, but have mixed light (both IR and white, white can be activated by human motion), speaker, deterrent functions (alarm / siren / police light)... I had mounted many in different house installations and owners are very happy from them.
