    Swivel mount

    There is swivel built into the housing, if that's what you're after. It swivels at the seam, above the Alhua logo.

    IPC-Color4K-T180 Water intrusion

    Yep, no issues with any of them and they see ALL the weather. I am more concerned with the junction box than I am with the cameras.

    Criminal spy camera inside Logitech mouse

    But who would need to put it in there? Logitech? And wouldn't the additional, external power and data cables be obvious?

    Criminal spy camera inside Logitech mouse

    You are far more likely to have something installed on your PC that records your screen than you are to have a camera in your mouse recording your screen.

    Did anyone say the T58IR couldn't read license plates at 40ft? This is a license plate at 40ft with a 4MP T54IR-ZE set to 12mm.

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    Correct, this is currently the only camera on the backside of the fence. I do plan to put another one of these on the other side of the gate to cross this FOV, so it may gain benefits from that IR cannon when I do that. I'll mess with it a bit more, and actually get out there when the weather...

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    It's still been cold here, so not many people walking by at night and I can't be bothered to go out there myself and walk around. Here is before applying @wittaj's changes: My settings: After changing out the settings to what wittaj posted. Same image settings as above, but 1/1000...

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    It's physical. All 3 lenses are physically connected. When using the built in mechanical adjustment, you are tilting the entire block of cameras/lenses. In addition to this, since only one lens contains the IVS mapping, the three lenses need to maintain the same relation.

    Cam on gate post

    That is what I thought you were trying to describe. The issue with that is you now have a square on a square, and they're not true to each other. Having them lined up, and being less obvious, is the point of the design. As it is designed now, it is 3 pieces; a top, the middle housing, and the...

    No, it uses its own PFA124. You can modify your PFA121, but the 124 would be better.

    Teaser Info and Mini Review - Empiretech B52IR-X3 Triple Lens Camera

    I just copied some of your settings and will see how they do. How in the hell are you able to run such low NR levels? If I try anything near that low it looks like shit.

    Large DB (>250,000 records) notification in BI

    A lot of my issues were due to errant and non-important alerts. They would just stack up. I moved to IVS alerts from my cameras, instead of BI motion, and it helped a lot. For instance, my flag in the front yard would trigger all day and just rack up the DB. After changing to IVS, I only get...

    Active deterrence or TiOC 2.0?

    I guess this just doesn't seem to really be something people in the US go for. We usually just add cameras, have a security system, and they are there own things.

    Active deterrence or TiOC 2.0?

    This isn't a dig at the OP, or anyone in particular, but why is it the only people who ever seem to want the active deterrence or TiOC cameras are always from a country other than the US?

    Fixed-Focal vs Vari-Focal

    I wasn't sure which way you meant the "also comes with a mic" detail, but wanted to clarify for the OP, just in case. Both versions come with an onboard mic for audio, the -ZE just doesn't have the letter in its model name to denote this. It really should be -ASZE for Audio, SD Card, Motorized...

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    That's no Honda Civic I've ever seen, but does look like a Toyota Camry... So, good luck to them if they can find the perps.
