Hikvision DS-2CD2365G1-I 6MP Outdoor Turret

Hi guys,

New to the forum and I have trawled this and the web but, does anyone have any pictures of the IR cluster for these turrets? Im very interested in seeing this.

I have had Swann which were fine and I never had problems with, but I sold my previous house and my new system is going to be an upgrade on the Swann unit. I have been torn between Hikvision and Dahua but always lean more towards Hikvision (not sure why)

Any advice would be welcome, I am in Australia and keep reading horror stories about not using Australian stock of these Cameras due to warranty/firmware issues but keep seeing Andy mentioned here. securitywholesalers.com.au is where I am likely going to get cameras from due to the issues mentioned above unless anyone can shed anymore light on the subject?

Thanks!

The IRs are around the lense in the black portion of the face. I don't have a picture of it though. My opinion would be to stick with a authorized Australian dealer who offers a warranty. You can always and try to go with Andy but sometimes its better to spend a little more to get a authentic warranty and customer support.

Thanks for the feedback, incidentally I was actually watching your video on the ColorVu 2 yesterday before I even knew about this forum, great video
