Thanks for the lottery. I’ll play although I’ve never won anything.
Since it’s my 1st Empire Andy lottery,I have a question.

We can purchase up to 4 tickets. That part is easy.
After purchasing our tickets are you asking for an email with a copy of our ticket purchasing receipt or is this email with previous receipts from camera purchases for additional “free tickets”?

If you purchase tickets off of the website, you do not need to do anything.
If you make a purchase off of Amazon you will need to send a copy of your receipt/invoice to Andy to get your tickets.

Hey guys

The sales price just released, see 1st posting.
The tickets comes to around 200 now, it's bit fast, so have around 30% left. We start the selling on Monday morning.
We also update the refurbished list with latest updated stocks.

Woo hoo. Grabbed 2 of the 180 cameras from the refurb sale. Do the refurb cameras qualify for the lottery?

Some good deals there. But sadly a white IPC-Color4K-T 2.8mm is not on it. Will have to talk myself into spending more on a fresh new one. Or wait for the next sale.

Keep checking. Picked up a refurb 4K/X in January. Just reloaded the refurb page a couple times a day. One morning, there is was and I pulled the trigger.

Persistence pays off.

In case I win something; I really don't need any more camera's and selling it feels wrong.

I know what you mean. I won that big PTZ and have no place to put it, so I did not accept it since it just seemed wrong to sell it.

That is as good as it gets at the moment. And with the S3 version it is much better than the original 5442 series.

Thanks.

Are you referring to the IPC-B5442E-ZE?
I'm so confused with these model numbers.
What is the S3 version?
While I asking (dumb) questions, what is SMD 3?
Note: The purpose of this camera is as a web cam. No security features needed, just best image quality within the 2.7-12.0 focal length.

Whenever Dahua (And thus Andy's Empiretech cameras) use a different chipset on an existing model, it gets an S# designation.

So the entire 5442 series line of cameras now have an S3 at the end to designate a new chipset within an already existing model line.

Further, Andy has been required to change the names, so the B5442-ZE-S3 is now B54IR-ZE-S3

SMD 3.0 is Smart Motion Detection version 3. I forget which version the 5442 series originally had. But regardless, it is improvements to the motion detection model.

Here are reviews showing the difference between the original chipset and new S3 chipset in the 5442 line of cameras.'

Mini-Review - 5442-Z4E-S3 AKA B54IR-Z4E S3 - Replacement to the 5442-Z4E

As many of us are aware, Dahua decided to keep the same model numbers of some of their most popular models like the 5442-Z12E and the 5442 series cameras, but they have been updated with a newer GUI and specs that on paper show better than the previous version as was discussed in this thread...

Thanks again. I had scanned those two reviews you suggest but got kind of lost as I was already confused with the model numbers.

Also I'm interested in moving up to 8MP and from EMPIRETECANDY response to my question about the IPC-B58IR-ZE above, there doesn't appear to be a version with the new GUI (S3).
