    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    What would you recommend when Empiretech runs out of stock and the US can't get Dahua anymore?

    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    So, what are people going to move to once Empiretech is no longer selling cameras?

    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    One thing that may sway my decision is availability. I have a bunch of older Dahua cams that I will be replacing a little at a time. Will Andy still be getting cameras in and selling them, or is it just selling out of current stock? I don’t want to be stuck halfway through a switch, and not be...

    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    The zoom isn't the problem, I don't think. I'd like to reduce the zoom, but maintain the same identification over a wider area. If I reduce the zoom I have now, I get more of an overview shot. I guess I could add more cameras to do identification at many more areas, but there's a ton of spaces I...

    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    That's what I'm replacing. I have a bunch of the Dahua IPC-HFW5421E-Z cameras. I wanted to increase the FOV on some of these without sacrificing my identification ranges.

    This seems like the route I'll need to take. The price doesn't seem bad for the specs either.

    Afraid of that. Any other brands with those specs available to buy in US for end consumers besides Unifi?

    1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal

    Looking to replace some older Dahua cameras and NVR. I would prefer buying from Andy. But, I don’t see a camera on his site with these comparable specs. Will I need to venture away from Dahua for this?

    New GUI cams with working day/night switch

    I'm considering replacing some of my older Dahua cams. When ordering, how can we tell which cams have the new GUI that have working day/night switching? On the same note, do they also allow viewing of the cam without the plugin and IE?

    How to view Dahua cameras without browser plugins

    I use SmartPSS in one window for viewing, and simultaneously bring up the camera in any browser to make detailed changes. I look at image in SmartPSS live and make changes in browser.

    IVS not recording in NVR just for some model cameras

    I have a NVR4208-8P-4K (not using the POE ports). When I received the NVR, the firmware version did not include IVS. The vendor sent me an older version of the firmware with IVS enabled. I have some ipc-hdw4431c-a cameras that record on IVS triggers. I have a ipc-hdbw5421e-z that doesn't record...
