    Hi, I recently installed a "SanDisk High Endurance MicroSD Card 128GB". I worked fine in my Dahua camera. Maybe it's a faulty SD card?

    EmpireTech 9th Anniversary (Summer)Sales

    I am the lucky winner in 4th place from the Netherlands. Very happy with the IPC-T54IR-ZE S3, coincidentally I was planning to order another one, which is no longer necessary. Thanks Andy!

    IPC-T54IR-AS vs 5442-AS Housing/Mounting Differences

    You probably bought to wrong camera. You should have bought T54IR-ZE-S3 that has the same form factor as the T5442T

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE New cam from Dahua :)

    I set the fixed shutter to 1/120, but SSA still made the image of the inside door darker than without SSA. I just adjusted the lighting spotlights so that they shine on your face when you enter the store, hopefully that helps.

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE New cam from Dahua :)

    I needed to use WDR 25%, SSA made the image even darker. Unfortunately, you can see that the sharpness of faces decreases due to WDR. Unfortunately, I haven't found a better solution in this situation yet.

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    I also experience the same problem, crazy that Dahua has not resolved this bug with an update after more than 2 years.

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE New cam from Dahua :)

    In my shop my 5442 is aimed at the exterior sliding door. However, this provides some challenge with the right settings. If someone is standing outside, it is clearly visible, but if someone steps inside (especially with dark clothing), the image is very underexposed. Do you recommend using the...

    PFA130-E or PFB203W wall mount

    I want to move my turret camera because the current setup is causing problems. The sunshade reflects the IR, which gives less night vision, and the lighting spot does not help (beginner's mistake from a few years ago). I am going to transfer the camera from the canopy to the wall (see photo), so...

    Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret

    Yesterday I upgraded my two T5442-ZE cameras to the T54IR-ZE-S3. The new T54IR-ZE-S3 is in a different league, especially at night. During the day I see little improvement. For this comparison I have the new and old cam's at the same settings: Smart IR on, Shutterspeed 8.3ms, Gain 50.

    Review- New Design Tendelux 10 Watt IR illuminator.

    Last week I installed the Tendelux 20 Watt IR illuminator next to my camera on the garage. What a difference. The main reason why I did this is so that the IR illuminator attracts the spiders instead of the camera. I have turned off the IR illuminator on the camera during the day and at night...

    New Setup Thoughts: Blue Iris or NVR

    In my opinion, the app is perfect, super stable & well developed. Chinese manufacturers can still learn something from this. If you have an Ajax alarm, this is the ultimate combination in my opinion. It's a shame that Ajax for external cameras does not indeed support AI. I have Dahua cameras in...

    New Setup Thoughts: Blue Iris or NVR

    I also ultimately chose the NVR option. I have an AJAX NVR that is integrated with the AJAX alarm system, works perfectly! I use Unifi hardware for the network, which is very user-friendly. I set up the network as follows: VLAN 1: main network for all devices VLAN 2: This network is intended for...
