Quick comparison video of Color4K-X Series 1 & 2
The firmware that came installed on the camera was 2/6/24 (rev. 12), and I just now updated to the 1/14/26 (rev. 62). Note that this uses the newer interface, so series 1 and 2 use different firmware. -

Quick comparison video of Color4K-X Series 1 & 2
Here is a quick comparison of series 1 & 2 of the 6mm Color4K-X cameras. I only made a video at night, since the cameras are identical during the daytime and provide an excellent image. One thing I noted today though is that the series 2 focus point is about 2 1/2 feet further than the series 1... -

Firmware for IPC-T54IR-ZE question
I had been using the 3.142.15OG003.0.R.241221 firmware on all my IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 cameras, but updated them to 3.142.0000000.8.R.250826. No problems at all, but it should be noted that I did a factory reset of all the cameras first, before initiating the update. I keep a 128GB USB drive with all... -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
While browsing my NVR today, found a clip that was saved on my NVR with the same cat, same time, 13 days apart. On the left is the B54IR-Z4E-S3, and on the right is the B54PRO-Z4E. This clip definitely shows how much better the S3 is in dim lighting conditions. I'm going to swap cameras again... -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
Here is a screen capture from the daytime. And yes, he could use some new tires. :oops: -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
The night settings I have found to work best for this particular setting: Brightness = 50, Contrast = 56, Saturation = 50, Sharpness = 19, Gamma = 50 Shutter 0-6ms, Gain 0-50, Iris = 100, Exposure Compensation = 50, 3D NR = 39, 2D NR = 34 For daytime, most settings are similar except: Shutter... -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
I didn't blur the plate out. He has painted some stuff over the letters of the plate to distort it, so it can't be read at night. Here is an extended clip... -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
No one has walked down the driveway at night since swapping cameras, but this guy drove down the driveway tonight and also a few nights ago, when the B54IR-Z4E-S3 was set up; so it shows the comparison. Unlike last night when AI-ISP and AI-SSA were "off", I decided to switch on AI-ISP. Didn't... -

Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series
Yes, seems to be the same. Looks like they spent a lot of time on the AI functions, so for the heck of it I decided to turn on the AI-ISP and AI-SSA and see what that does. Right off the bat, the daytime image appears to be washed out with a lack of contrast. I assume the nighttime settings will... -

B54PRO-Z4E first impression
After updating the firmware of the B54PRO-Z4E with the April 1, 2026 release, I noticed two things immediately: the smart illumination function now works much better than it had previously, and the light sensitivity seems to have been optimized since the previous firmware. Here are two clips. In... -

Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series
That's with the B54IR-Z4E-S3. I just now finished swapping the B54IR-Z4E-S3 out with the B54PRO-Z4E. Here are a couple screen shots. The first is the B54IR-Z4E-S3, and the second is the B54PRO-Z4E. Daytime pics and videos from the B54PRO-Z4E are so much nicer. I hope, as I view the images...
