Maybe someone at Dahua will read this review and consider placing it below $650.XX?!?
Regardless, looking forward to the day and night video's from you! 
Don't worry, captured a lot of video of the weekend and still have a ton more to do to put each feature through its paces. Currently editing the first batch x2 (due to the dual sensor) and plan to share day & night (with tweaks) as well as initial walk around pics at night. I may cut this down into smaller videos but haven't decided yet as either way I'll give you all timestamps etc. Like I mentioned, a lot of features on this one and a lot of dialing in to ensure both sensors compliment each other BUT stay tuned, I will be getting video up ASAP and also the new menu breakdown.Maybe someone at Dahua will read this review and consider placing it below $650.XX?!?

Unfortunately the wonders of YouTube tripped up the re-encoding (that they horribly complete on each video) last night so I am current re-uploading the first video for sharing here. Will post more details and an update once its up on YT.

I think you missed the 1 from the beginning of $650 as it has Dual Sensors double the moneyMaybe someone at Dahua will read this review and consider placing it below $650.XX?!?

Yes remember even though no price yet this is dual sensors therefore equivalent to 2 cams PLUS this has full AI (ANPR, Face Recognition on board etc) so akin to the Ultra 7xxx series in terms of potential price point per cam / sensor etc. However remember this cam also has some PTZ functionality on both lenses (more on this later in review) so will also potentially bump cost. Will update with price as soon as I hear back on it.

How far away is the fence in your backyard from the camera? I'm just trying to figure out how much "reach" the camera has.
Thanks!
Just over 60 feet and very little tele was used. When I do next set of test I will do 1 with full zoom on the tele for you as well
All I want to know is what you said to the wife / girl friend about strapping on that giant cannon to the side of the house!
hahaha, I guess I could build a seat on it and use it as an observation postAll I want to know is what you said to the wife / girl friend about strapping on that giant cannon to the side of the house!
if its not too personal would love to see what the camera looks like mounted to the house.hahaha, I guess I could build a seat on it and use it as an observation post
Will look to get a pic once complete with testing as currently keep moving it around. Like I mentioned in the intro nice thing I found was being able to use a PFA 120 in the mix too
