IPC-HDW3541T-ZAS price / value buy advice?

[querex]

Want to buy a IPC-HDW3541T-ZAS.
Already have 2 in use.
I love:

• the low light sensitivity of the HDW3541T-ZAS: 0.0005 Lux@F1.5 (B/W, 30IRE)
• human detection
• motorised zoom

I noticed the IPC-HDW3541T-ZAS was marked as EOL nowadays.
I found a shop which still has IPC-HDW3541T-ZAS in stock.
But want to ask of advice if I have to consider a successor of this model in the same price range.

Many thanks!

5MP on a 1/2.8" sensor with a max F1.5 Lens, I doubt the 0.0005 Lux, maybe they set shutter speed to 1 second to get that data

Any 4MP camera with a 1/1.8" sensor will have better low light performance than it

Amcrest ( a Dahua OEM) sells a camera with those specs, as a
IP5M-T1179EW
for $60 bucks.
BUT, the turret does not have a Torx scew to " lock it" into position.
