Hi
I'm looking for a starlight varifocal PTZ camera with auto-tracking function.
I see some threads discussing about some models (SD52C225U-HNI, SD59225U-HNI, ...) but seems to have some bugs.

Can any one advise me to choose a correct one.

Regards

@TenderTendon When you bought SD52C225U-HNI, did you consider SD42212T-HN(-S2) - Dahua Technology ?

SD52C225U-HNI has a low profile because half of it is hidden behind hole, which is nice but the hole you have to cut is big.

What do you do with that big hole when you upgrade to a newer PTZ?

If it's in a typical sofit or ceiling, fairly easy to repair the hole. If it is vented sofit material, $10 and 30 minutes work it can be replaced.

Hi
I understood that SD52C225U-HNI have to be mounted under an eave and doesn't have IR, but SD59225U-HNI and SD6CE225U-HNI do.
Yes i wish to mount the PTZ on a wall with bracket.
I was thinking (maybe i'm wrong) that these 2 models (SD59225U-HNI and SD6CE225U-HNI) will be ok
I'm waiting for some advise before buying.
Thanks again

You do realize that these 2 PTZs are "large" and will stick out to people walking by, right?

Yes, but the ptz will be located at my backyard.

Regarding price, only $64 difference between SD59225U-HNI and SD6CE225U-HNI

Did you look at the SD59230U-HNI (2MP 30x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera Auto-tracking)
@ $617.00 USD? http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/VRvZbQv

Looks to have good specs.

Yes i already take a look at the SD59230U-HNI, but the difference between the SD59230U-HNI (30x) and SD59225U-HNI (25x) is that the price is to high.
To get 5x more Optical zoom, i have to pay $200 more to get SD59230U-HNI.
Better deal would be the SD59225U-HNI, at least for me.
