Will get one to test in US soon.
Camera also can adjust the lens up and down.

Between Panorama (3.6mm) and medium view (12mm) there is nice difference in zoom level (almost 4x). Bigger rectangle on first image (IPC) is small..
Between medium view (12mm) and Distant one (25mm) difference is small (2x). Rectangle on second image (IPC2) is much bigger (half of image)..
Dahua did wrong distance view lens 25mm - it should be something in 40 - 50mm range to fit into 4x zoom difference between IPC2 and IPC3...
Field of View data from specification confirms they didn't put much effort into the design of the last tele-photo lens.

how is the IR wash out with the sensor thats so close?
Still test on it, later will have a full video. if good, will get another one to play here.

Yes that's the convenience of all in one. I'm all for it. I'm just not convinced that using 1/2.8 sensors is going to cut it. As above, great idea, maybe a rethink needed of how it's achieved before we have a camera that really appeals on picture quality. In the mean time, if it works for you, buy it! I'm not trying to put anyone off. Just analysing where it stands for myself and those others who crave picture quality over anything else.
I’ll echo what the other member said this is yet another toy like product.Just like Hikvision they will come out with something that could be epic and great!
Yet release something that is from 1990?!?
They have the technology, capability, and knowledge to do so! So why design and produce a piece of shit?!?
I think that might be a bit harsh, It's not a piece of...However, it's unlikely to produce a picture on par wth a 5442 Se/ 2 or 3 which are the go to cameras given most on here value Picture Quality over most other elements.
I doubt the cost would be 3 separate cameras. Remember, most of a combined camera is shared - the casing, the PSU, the mount, the image processor / memory board are likely to be a single powerful unit instead of 3 separate lower powered units.
When you look at eg a 4kT 180, it's 2 x 4kt 1/1.2" sensors & lenses but from memory costs only around $50 more than the single 90 degree camera. It's going to come down as to whether or not Dahua think there's a market for it. I think there may well be for some, provided it's at the right price. A $300 camera that replaces 3 others has to be a market winner, if it can be sold for around that price.

That does look cosndierably better than Dahua's own video. Only thing that stands out is that in the office the 25mm lens looks unsharp. Hard to tell from the outside pics without a reference point.

If it's only 2mp then that explains a lot. However, I don't hold out much hope for face retreival beyond the ideal distance because once you start to zoom you're going to lose the pixel count quickly. 2mp are fine for optical zoom cameras such as PTZ's as the world zooms in not the recorded picture. But on fixed lenses, any close up will involve zooming the recorded picture and thus pixel area. That said, the picture in the current 4KT's 8mp is so bad when zoomed, there's probably little difference. I don't now what they did with those cameras, but the quality on zooming is appauling. Maybe something to do with the incamera compression or some similar factor. I do seem to remember the 5442's being good though on 4mp albeit on the 1/1.8" not 1/2.8 sensors.
