    Good deal Annke 180 degree dual 1/1.8 for $220?

    I did roll some video with this setting, more of a ghosting effect than anything else. This is the incorrect camera for me in this setting (at night) because lack of light however its still way better than any IR I have at the distances I'm covering. Even with a moonlit sky, I could barely see...

    Good deal Annke 180 degree dual 1/1.8 for $220?

    It is there, if you are not looking for it, you will not see it. Look at the warehouse pics, the orange reddish shelves, very little effect from it but you can see the stitch, still a very good pic for a 180 cam. Distance pictures are almost hard to find with the Hikvision until somebody walks...

    Amazon attempts to open my front door to deliver package

    Hmmm, I think I would be checking in with them about that. Last thing I would want is a amazon having my door code. Word gets around ya know. I agree this would appear the guy was just trying to follow instructions however one never knows.

    Yea would be nice, I posted some pics of the greyed out features in the firmware in my review i started here last month, I also e-mailed them about 3 weeks ago about using the software hikvision has for their other multi sensor cameras to try to dial this in. Guess what? No reply's yet. Oh...

    Good deal Annke 180 degree dual 1/1.8 for $220?

    Yes sir, I have not decided yet on a location but testing different places to get a feel for it. I will say this, this is the first camera that really knows the difference between a human and a car with very little false alerts.

    Good deal Annke 180 degree dual 1/1.8 for $220?

    I can move it back and get like a small ghosting effect in the trees in the background and the front end heals up pretty well, If somebody is walking by the cam in the setting above, you will get a quick blurb and most likely will not miss the money shot. Nothing is ever perfect in all cams and...

    I'm also really liking mine, Hikvision sent me one for testing, The issues I have is setting the stitching feature, not a deal breaker but If you are AD&D about your picture, it might just drive you nuts getting it set where you want.

    Hitting cameras web pages with a laptop in an NVR with POE

    WOW, I guess the "Other Network engineers" who scan and probe businesses networks for exploits, and tell the clients they will be shutting down their credit card readers because of open ports to a NVR have just been telling us a bunch of bullshit the last 6 years. I'm sure mastercard and...

    I have had to do the opposite and set it to low under certain conditions, The Camera was in a spot that got shady about 7pm, it was viewing the side of a house that was still reflecting lots of bright light, Must have been the contrast in the field of view between sun and shade but it would kick...

    Hard Drive and NVR Issue

    Check to see If your user account you are using has credentials to do that, sometimes they limit what you can do depending on the users privileges. Not being familiar with the menus on that DVR, you might have to poke around and check that. It is best to let the dvr use its native formatting...

    Dahua Thermal Cams showing up All over

    I know I was back at Foxwoods In June of 2021, They had pulled all those down. No body is checking for temp anymore, but at the time it sounded good and I suppose it was just a general tool or they figured out they were not working well.

    Tigersecu DVR settings

    Those do look crappy, My suggestion was to power it down, DVR and cams, If the filters were stuck they might reset when rebooted, if you have Improper voltages turning out of the power brick, could definitely effect the cams. Looks like that power brick powers everything so best test it before...

    Do you install POE lightning arrestor for outdoor IP camera

    Chances are if you take a direct hit, you will be toast no matter what, You can mitigate transient risk with properly installed surge protectors. I have used DITEK equipment with good success. The have Install guides also.

    Tigersecu DVR settings

    Analog cams? where are they pulling power from? Not sure what model you have but the Tigersecu generally must have a separate power unit for the analog cams, could be it took a hit, won't know until you put a meter on it. As @looney2ns said, usually due to a bad or stuck IR filter. Disconnect...

    Tigersecu DVR settings

    Should not effect your settings, I would make sure your power supply is putting out whats the specs are, The cheaper units have internal power issues and cannot power the drive proper and takes em out.

    What are security camera enthusiasts gonna do when most Chinese cameras are banned for sale in US come Nov., 2022?

    Using your reasoning 'Everything Foreign is bad" theory makes NO sense. The US Gov as usual was way behind the curve of figuring out national security risks and Chinese state sponsored Cameras in sensitive US Gov buildings and facilities was deemed a Really bad Idea. Plus it was also a way to...
