    feedback comparing the T54IR-ZE-S3 with B52IR-Z12E-S2 for patio backyard

    the extra lighting helps. i have noticed that here. some areas have lights along walkways which really help the cameras. if one has the benefit of light sources that are on at night, what settings in conf are the most common to tweak regarding the extra light for Z12E | Z4E?

    feedback comparing the T54IR-ZE-S3 with B52IR-Z12E-S2 for patio backyard

    i was gonna purchase a Z4 and test it against the Z12E's i have. configuration is certainly key, as with many tech things, and these cams come with a boat load of conf opts. tough reading some threads here it does seem the general wisdom is to conf to B&W. i've seen various shutter speed...

    feedback comparing the T54IR-ZE-S3 with B52IR-Z12E-S2 for patio backyard

    real world application appears to contradict the DORI numbers. i'll look over the links. but as you say i'll have more questions. esp with regards to 2.8 & 3.6. i just ordered a T54IR-AS-S3/2.8mm to try at my front door. and a couple of Z12E-S2 for longer range. i was, as i posted, maybe going...

    two cams facing opposite directions to cover driveway

    appreciate the overview FOV plan! one or two of these dual lens cam you linked will fill a void here, no doubt. the one critical review of IP67 rating from one user on that Amazon thread caught my attention but rain/moisture here is rarely an issue. getting one of these to test placement spots...
