    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    wittaj, I think you're right, I may just have to get out my tape measure and just rely on the IDENTIFY distances to choose cameras LOL

    Revo, those screenshots look great. Compared to mine, hard to believe those are coming from the cam GUI. Color coded clips, screenshot thumbnails, etc. Thank you for sending those, I look forward to that!

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    I am pretty sure (but not for sure) I put the card in before power. But you may be right, I may have created my own problems. I did read in the instructions (late last night) to do it as you suggested and thought maybe I did put it in under power which prompted me to reset.

    Update... For those who may have the same problems I had starting this thread (no recording on MicroSD with good triggers) I may have found the problem. If you read above you will see that after much fiddling with settings last night I still didn't have any recordings. This eve when I logged...

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    Thanks for that great info wittaj. Yeah I was afraid of that. That thread looks like my near future LOL. Funny he is using the same method I was going to attempt using the same camera I believe. Makes it hard to set my temp rig, zoom to the ideal FOV and note the focal length only to order that...

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    Revo, I have a 2.7-12mm camera. I have been an avid hobby photographer for decades and do understand the relationship between zoom, f/stop, shutter speed, light gathering, etc. This is why I want to know the focal length of my zoom cam at a particular location. I wholeheartedly agree with you...

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    Hey Revo, Your GUI looks much nicer than mine. That must be your NVR. I am only using the camera GUI through Internet Explorer right now to learn and test. Your screenshots look great and appear to show what I would be looking for as to control over playback, etc. Very nice. I will look forward...

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    From California, sorry LOL But I do love Canada, been many times. Ok, I guess I'm a bozo. I clicked on the + and - under 'Zoom Speed' many times and it would just refocus, no zoom. So I presumed the + and - were related to the 'Speed'. Tonight I held down the '+' and it did indeed zoom with a...

    Thank you Revo, Here is what my GUI looks like under IE. Ignore the image, I covered the camera as it is in my office and I'm not looking very pretty today :cool:

    Hi from CA. Test locations w/ 1 camera, no NVR, questions

    Thank you for getting back so quickly! I will review that thread later tonight. Apologies but I still don't see where to set zoom. In the Live window I drop down the Zoom & Focus menu and only have the following choices: Zoom Speed & Focus Speed Buttons for: Auto Focus, Reset, Refresh, Area...
