Firstly I didn't know whether to post this on another thread or start new so I did the latter. Camera is working well, no major issues, I am on almost full zoom and as cars come into the frame I notice distortion near the edge. It isn't the kind of distortion I would expect, seems to be both vertical and horizontal, not a show stopper by any extent but I just wondered if anyone else had noticed this.
It is quite common for lenses to distort when zoomed in, so it doesn't surprise me too much. I would say it only effects the outside (right in my case) 10-15% of the frame. I only noticed as you can see the cars/trucks look like they lean to the right, ever so slightly, just as they enter the frame
they then straighten and distortion is gone once they pass through the initial 10-15% on the edge. Should have more to do with my time I know, in fact I have 
Camera is working great though, day and night for LPR/ALPR, recommended, yes more powerful IR would be nice but it would require POE+ and higher price. I can now use my PTZ for other duties and not as an ALPR slave
