Hi @camviewer43
That's why I'd like to see some head-to-head comparison rather than just assume or stick by some dogma about camera image quality. I'm open to new entrance in the market place to shake things up.
That's actually a really good post. If you compare the Wyze v3 images, they're way better than the Ring, and much closer to the Dahua. That's why I'd like some critical comparisons. It's not that I don't know poor quality cameras exist. I believe they do. I want to see how the v3 stacks up.Yep, almost any camera can be made to give a nice still image. That Wyze camera is probably gain full on and a 1/3 shutter speed to allow in a lot of light. What happens when there is motion at night. You cannot compare a $30 camera to a 1/1.8" sensor camera. That's like comparing a Ford Pinto to a Ferrari. The performance between the two will be very different.
Take a look at this great post showing a good camera versus a Ring - I suspect the Wyze performance would be even worse.
Looking for Learned Input
Afternoon folks - I have been extensively researching this forum and wanted to TRULY thank you all for your Gravitation, Predisposition and well frankly Addiction to Cam Security... ))) Just looking for some insight on beginning my own journey. SHEWHOMUSTBEOBEYED thinks she wants battery...ipcamtalk.com
I don't have a Wyze v3, only a v2. I do have a Dahua IPC-T5442 (1/1.8") 4MP as well as a Dahua DH-SD1A404XB-GNR (1/2.8") 4MP. From the sample images that other people post, I think the image clarity/noise of the Wyzecam V3 very much resembles the 1/2.8" Dahua. Similar amounts of motion blur. But a head-to-head would be much better. I know some nights with the moon out my IPC-T5442 looks amazing, but with an overcast sky and all lights out, it's pretty dark.
Good read. Thanks! It is a pretty unbelievable improvement they've made without raising the price tag.
Maybe as a cheap confirmation cam for alarm sensors. Not sure I would install them in any capacity where I wanted an actual camera.
Check post #15 in the thread below for the video from the Ring cam. I have no access to his cam.
That's a great detailed comparison, super useful. Yes, POE would be much preferred to wifi, but it's amazing what Wyze has done with a $20 camera. It's worth watching what they do. I think the POE camera market is pretty stagnant with both pricing and technology and pretty limited competition. It's instructive for ip cam enthusiasts to look at what the consumer market is doing, and maybe demand more from their POE cameras.
