What happens to the picture quality when IR is activated on both integrated cameras at the same time? I see a ring of IR's on each lens

I think most users will want the standard rj45 not the M12....Side note - I think most folks are better off with two fixed turrets than one of these...price is almost the same..

One word response to this..... WAF

Would Blue Iris or any NVR see this model as two entirely separate cameras, or would it put the two cameras in a split-screen configuration on one channel?

Seems like only one cable is present for connecting to ethernet

I'm curious about this too!

 

[ck42]

There no technical reason why it couldn't behave like 2 cameras. It's not as if 1 of the cameras will saturate the network cable. If they are somehow combined, that would be..... weird.

book one sample for this, ready date is middle May.

I think everyone is... I emailed another hong kong distributor and says that this will display both camera feeds in 1 window, but both could be 1080p. I didn't really believe it, but we will see. They sent me a screen shot, but seems to be the same one in the manual with the rubix cube and apple.

I dont think this is released yet, hopefully in the next few weeks.

hopefully this US guy will test and post a review...

 

[ck42]

Yep...hopefully pronto. Eager to also learn if the two camera images are integrated into a single stream 'view' as well...or if each camera is treated totally independently.

This was interesting while looking through the manual....

Main Stream:

CH1: 1080P (1~25/30fps)

CH2: 1080P (1~25/30fps)

Sub Stream:

CH1: D1(1~25/30fps)

CH2: D1(1~25/30fps)

Bad luck, I haven't got time to test the first cam, but shipped by my guy directly, but will have 2 cams later this week, will send one to @looney2ns for a testing, @Arjun also will get 1, he ordered last month. First camera shipped to Canada, lol.

 

[flynreelow]

cant wait to see the testing and write up.. looks like a pretty good cam for specific applications

 

[EMPIRETECANDY]

Today just get the camera and not enough time to test the camera carefully, it has only one RJ45 ports, and have 2 channels show. Pic is very sharp, same as other starlight one, lol. @looney2ns will help for the testing.

********I also have another cheap one, any one is intretested, please contact me via email.I will invite who do great support here to do the review. IPC-HDW2231R-ZS 2MP STARLIGHT LITE model and IPC-HDW1230S fixed lens.
