So do they have a Fixed Lens version 3? I thought the ZE version is their Vari-Focal...Version 3 is out as a replacement. Probably due to chip issue's.

Thank you for the quick reply,The 3549 model is a 5MP on a sensor designed for 2MP, so a 2MP would kick it's butt at night.
There is currently no 5MP that we recommend as their are none on the ideal MP/sensor combo.
The 5442 would be a MUCH BETTER choice and is still considered the standard and king of cameras.
There is a 4K/X and 4K/T model that are out now that are better, but they need light and do not see infrared. If you have enough light or do not care about using the built-in white LED, they are great cameras, otherwise the 5442 is the way to go.
I can also get this next day on Amazon, it’s only $40 more than the fixed focal variant. Is there any discernible difference in image quality over the 3.6mm or is it just down to having variable focus?
Perfect,Some will say a fixed lens can provide a cleaner image, but a lot of us say the advantage of the varifocal negates the image improvement. I have fixed lens and varifocal of the 5442 series and I don't see a difference and certainly not enough to justify not getting the varifocal.
IPC-Color4K-T is the model
Isn't the cam to go with the T5442T-ZE?
Aha, i mean the bigredfish talked IPC-HDW5849H-ASE-LED is ours IPC-Color4K-TIsn't the cam to go with the T5442T-ZE?
Very helpful, thanks!The 5442-ZE is the still current go to camera as that is a varifocal so you can optically zoom in and get better IDENTIFY at 15-30 feet out and that camera can see infrared.
The 4K/T is a better model IF your identify is within 15 feet or so of the camera and you have enough light or run the built-in white LED. But many people do not have enough light or refuse to run the camera with the white LED on. At that point the 5442 fixed lens would be the better choice as it can see infrared.
