All, as you know by now I own and use a number of PTZ’s, AI cams and systems (Pro & Ultra) and I’m reviewing these as I add more. So I’ve now gone ahead and purchased 2 more PTZ’s directly (this 1 and another 1 that I’m hoping can be delivered next week) and will be reviewing those as I get these ready to deploy in place. I’m going to start with the Loryta SD59232XA-HNR in this review and take it through the normal paces. This is Andy’s OEM of the Dahua with the same model number.
Again, these were purchased by me directly but I will always give a shout out to Andy as I cannot say enough good things about his service, response and commitment to all of us here and even more so in the assistance he is lending all with masks, gloves etc during these ‘interesting’ times we are in. So thank you Andy for all you do !
Therefore I will use Andy’s link for those interested in purchasing as well. Approximate price is around $699 for this camera.

Lastly, before I get onto the review I wanted to take a second to say that hope that everyone and their families are staying safe, sane and well as we all look out for each other during the tough, global situation all are facing.

The review
This camera is part of the Dahua Pro AI range so not only gets object filtering (Human, Vehicle, Non-Vehicle) as well as now SMD Plus as well.
In the box is the camera, the PFB300S Wall mount bracket, a PFA110 mount adapter and then regular manuals etc. In my case I will use the PFB303 arm to mount this one.
As usual I will be covering configuration, AI setup for critical capture, tips and tricks on how to best utilize and obviously a rundown of image quality in day/night capture scenarios. Initial vids and pics in post 2, AI feature breakdown and testing in post 3, tips and tricks on how to make these features work and other settings / menu functions in post 4 and a summary of findings / recommendations in post 5.
As always, if anyone has any questions as I go just leave a comment.
Onto the specs - Highlights here and I've attached the Dahua spec sheet as well
