    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    That is great news. I also hope they will support the IPC-HFW5431E-Z5 soon. I plan to use the IPC-HDW5231R-Z for general surveillance and the IPC-HFW5431E-Z5 for LPR.

    HFW5431E-Z5 4MP for LPR and HDW5231R-Z 2MP Turret Setup

    No, I don't think that is what Korgoth meant. It is the ITC217 camera that has LPR built in. See this website ITC217-PW1B-IRLZ10 | Dahua Technology Andy said he cannot order the ITC217 as there is a MOQ. I have asked how high the MOQ is because if it is low then possibly a group of people could...

    HFW5431E-Z5 4MP for LPR and HDW5231R-Z 2MP Turret Setup

    I've contacted Andy and it seems he cannot source the ITC217 which is a shame. The HFW5431E-Z5 is looking like the best option (probably much cheaper too) and he is getting some of these in stock soon. How should I best go about mounting the HDW5231R-Z? Will the PFA137 junction box allow me to...

    HFW5431E-Z5 4MP for LPR and HDW5231R-Z 2MP Turret Setup

    HFW5431E-Z5 4MP for LPR and HDW5231R-Z 2MP Turret Setup

    I didn't know Dahua make ALPR cameras. The ITC217 could be a good option but as nayr said, I can't find where to buy them and the cost is probably too high. The NVR5000-4KS2 could be a good option. I found one on eBay for $399 but it was without POE. Not sure where to buy these from either.

    HFW5431E-Z5 4MP for LPR and HDW5231R-Z 2MP Turret Setup

    I am from Australia and have been following this forum for a couple of months now. Thanks to nayr and many others for the camera reviews and tests, it has been very informative. We had 2 incidents late last year where eggs were thrown at our house late at night. Both times I believe the people...
