Mini PTZ v2: 4x optical zoom version

[klasipca]

It seems to work very well. I have not mounted it outside yet because the place I want to mount it only has a single gang box right now. i purchased a double gang box but the POE is still to big to keep everything inside the box. I'm going to paint the POE white and epoxy it to the top of the box in place of the pipe shown below. Taking more time than I planned for.

Current camera.

Good, although can't say I am even a bit surprised as we already seen the night footage. Might get it too, still have 10 more days until the deal for $110 is over.

So all of the new versions are coming with an external PoE adapter?

Yes, Home Depot has both SG and DG but they only stock white in the SG. So I have to paint the DG as well as the POE.

Inside testing shows great image day or night but the true test will be when I get it outside.

Probably been covered before, so sorry if I'm late to the game....First, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming this uses the ambarella chipset....If that's the case, is there any real benefit (quality wise) for getting this over the ones that use the HI3016C chipsets that are around $20 cheaper? Other than the Hikvision-style layout and compatibility....but if you're not using a Hik DVR; Just monitoring through a web browser...Is there a quality difference?

This is what the batch tool shows.

Well I installed the new X4 today but I screwed up so it is temporary. Didn't realize the 4" plate mounted only one way, and of course I had it the wrong way when I drilled for the bracket.....
Here are some pics of the install and daytime image, tonight will be the real test. Notice on the picture that I replaced the short pvc pipe with the POE.

No, not yet. I'm still waiting to see how it performs outside at night.

Looks good! Looking forward to see the performance at night.

You mean this one?

First of all IMX222 is worse in terms of IQ then IMX322 and second of all this isn't mini PTZ from Huisun/Imporx they have different firmware and IR leds on top.

Nice install bob. Very clean. Does the cord protection stop before the soffit?

The cable itself is in the soffit but the weatherproof connector is half in and half out. I didn't want to go any higher to make sure the camera did not get hung up.
