Yeah, the last you'll want is IR reflection
It was perfect IMHO; see top left camera image.

Price is around 175usd for guys here. I will post on shop when stock in, seems this camera working great.
Are both cams able to be adjusted? I just want to know if I can attach it at the tip of the soffet to point to the back yard and side yard at the same time.

Hi Elitef,
Each "eyeball" can be independently pointed w/in their rotational ranges. So yes, you should be able to have look in 2 directions.
Great. Thanks for the insight
Now to find videos of this cam. I know there are some posted here, but not many. and Youtube doesnt seem to have any either unfortunately

Hi Elitef,
This camera is too new to find a lot of youtube videos.
Looney2ns should have the best so far for it.
Look for the similar Dahua 2MP OEM starlight mini-dome wedge camera videos - that should give you an idea.
Gotcha. Thanks. I also looked into the Synology compatibility for this cam and looks like it is not listed as compatible. The HDBW4231F-AS is listed, but not the F-E2-M

HI Elitef,
1) Just because it is not listed does not mean it will not work - it may work, at least one lens, using the HDBW4231F-AS profile.
2) Wonder if they charge you a license for 2 cameras when the camera has 2 lenses.
Not sure about the licensing aspect of it but not too worried. I have a ton of licenses which are unused. As far the profile goes, agreed, it might work but only to one lens, but that defeats the purpose of getting this camera in that case haha
Been lurking for nearly a year and hadn't posted till now, but this two-in-one design sure seems like it checks off a lot of the boxes I was looking for in one package.

@looney2ns
In BI, what is/are the "Path" that you use to get both channels appear as separate windows for this cam? Mine comes up with an "/" that gets me only channel 2. I appreciate it you can copy and paste your path string here? Thanks.

I actually go out to Dahua Wiki site where they have an example of RTSP URL
Remote Access/Embed Video Feed On Website - Dahua Wiki
With that, I use the following configurations to add the channels in BI, and they both come up as separate windows in BI. Note the use of channel 1 with Camera 1, and channel 2 with Camera 2.

So this camera can show both channels in my Dahua NVR and in BI.

@looney2ns can help check? I don't have stocks now, new stock comes later this month or early Jul.

This cams base measures 1/16" larger then a 5231xxx turret. So I think you'll be fine.
That info is on the first page of this thread.
