I was just notified by Andy that my Dahua DH-SD8A820WA-HNF PTZ will ship out this Friday, China time. I cannot wait to camouflage that beast.

Putting Camouflage Tape On My Dahua 5442E-ZE Camera
- Thread starter Parley
- Start date
My latest batch of camouflage tape has arrived. Due to the shape of the PTZ I got some smaller widths. 1/2", 3/4" and 1" to be specific. However this style of tape comes in what I would call a "military" camo such as used on Army vehicles. Here is a picture of it.

Hahaha. I only want to camouflage my cameras, not my house.
You better record some GPS coordinates after installing the camo 'cause you might not be able to find your own cams one day!Hahaha. I only want to camouflage my cameras, not my house.

Funny that you should mention that. I just bought one of those high-tech fancy watches that has GPS oni it.

I've been using a Garmin Instinct for about two years. GPS is never actually used for anything other than tracking walks for distance. Then again, I don't go on long hikes/walks in areas I'm not familiar with. Nice to have it available though.

Let me know how it does with counting flights of stairs. I've had a total of three of them, sent two back, because they just don't seem to be anything close to accurate with flights of stairs. Otherwise, it's a great watch with good battery life.
OK, the camera arrived today in record time. It was shipped last Friday from China and arrived at my house here in SoCal at 10 am. Fastest time yet for me. Thank You Andy for the fast service. I have the camera set up on my test bench and have started the camouflage process. I have done the top half and so far it looks like a military helmet. Here is a picture.
Edit: I thought I had a POE injector that would work with this camera. However it does not work so I had to order another one. 75W this time to make sure.

@Parley It'll count changes in elevation on a walk, hills, as flights of stairs. At least that's my experience. We have a ranch with a basement. Some days I don't have to go into the basement, but if I take a walk I can show 24 flights climbed and six or eight descended. Like I said, it's not great at counting stairs.
I am interested in counting steps and distance when I walk. I have only had the watch for a few days and I am still getting used to it.
Not that I am aware of. Camera is still working just fine.
