    Ordering from Overseas (Requesting Feedback and Ordering Experience, Thanks!)

    I have ordered 2 ip cameras and some mounts from Andy. Always good communication and he is willing to help avoid the greedy tax collectors we have over here. Shipping time is than about 11 days, but that is better than paying 50% extra on top of the purchase (handling fee, import duty and VAT...

    Finally some progress with my cameras.

    Nice color on the base of the camera, but why did you not do the front of the camera ? I did a hikvision turret with plastidip and used some sticky tape to cover the lens,mir etc. That turned out pretty nice.

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    I think you cannot compare the internal poe ports on a nvr with a good 16 port poe managed switch. Perhaps a poe midspan (inserter) compares better in price. I use €25 8 port ones with 60 watt power budget from aliexpress. (Only intend to use them for ir lights and sensor power, but i test with...

    Dahua IVS on multiple channels/cameras

    Somewhere on the forum there was a sheet which explained it a bit. Some nvr units can do 1 or more ivs rules in software for camera's that do NOT have ivs. With cameras that have ivs rules intern the nvr can do more of them.

    New Dahua install

    Size does matter for me. I can mount up to 280cm high. So the SD59225U-HNI is 309 mm heigh, the top is with the included mount about at the bottum of a PFA-151 which is 170 mm high. So that is 2800-170-309 = 2321 mm. This will be heigh enough not to bump you head against it (not many people...

    New Dahua install

    Already answered for the 2MP choice by others. I now have 2, 3 and 4 MP camera's and the 2 MP Image quality is by far the best (also the most expensive being a ptz) The choice for this nvr is simple, want the number of inputs for sensors (16) and high bandwidth support (320 mbps) Perhaps there...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    I had mine sent that way, it was i think via postnl Item pre-advised the 23th and delivered in Netherlands at 5th. So that was less than 12 days actual shipping. No import tax, it was on the paperworks a baby camera with value of like $18 or so. As it is a non labeled dahua, it could easy be a...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    I have a hikvision 5220 high up the wall, and that gets rain and snow, but as the focal lenght is longer it is hardly noticable, and i see no rain drops running over the lens. I have a turret lower (4mm) and that is pointed down, also not much issues there. Only the mini dome (2.8 mm) i have...

    Dahua Starlight Recessed Dome PTZ (SD52C225U-HNI)

    That sort of sucks. I had issues getting the advanced camera events on the hikvision cam/nvr to show on the timeline, and hoped to get a more easy life with Dahua.

    Dahua Starlight Recessed Dome PTZ (SD52C225U-HNI)

    It also shows how much improvement there is between these 2 generations of chips with these kind of optics used.(assuming there was not an large improvement on the optics side)

    New Dahua install

    Size is also the issue i have with that latest idea i had. They will be mounted than at like 260 cm high, so out of reach of most people, and you will not bump your head. The fences are legally 200cm high maximal, so the ptz can peak just over it, but not look down in neighbor garden, which...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI Camera

    I once tried to get a dahua cam on my hikvision nvr. It is not straight forward process as i expected. I would suggest asking it in hikvision section, and search on youtube. Link on other forum: Dahua camera with Hikvision NVR - CCTV Forum Dahua wiki has the procedure other way (as in...

    New Dahua install

    I changed my original idea of a SD22204T-GN mini ptz everywhere already to more turret units. But this SD22204T-GN has no internal ir, so a number of ir related issues it does not have. The aging of the dome material it does have. But the dome points down the way i intend to install it (under...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Enjoy the fast shipping method as long as it lasts. I can have also much shorter shipping, but the import tax makes it totally unatractive. Is your new president not against China undermining the internal market and how to controll that better than with the tax vehicle.. The ups, fedex and...

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    Is there a reason for it that is clear ? There seems to be mount adapters which go from a thread to a bajonet. - PFA110 with G1 1/2 pipe thread to round 48 mm - PFA111 with G1 1/2 pipe thread to round 47 mm The PFB303W PFB303W | Dahua Technology has a G1 1/2" pipe thread. So both adpaters...

    New Dahua install

    And one new idea popped up after reading @nayr his ideas of installing a large ptz lower. I intended to install one larger PTZ higher up under the eve and 2 small mini ptz at lie 280 cm high to be able to record through whole the back garden. But.. what if I now just install 2 x a larger PTZ...

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    Question on the mount of these series. I assume it comes with the mount shown in this thread (PFB300S) Would it also be possible to use a PFB303W ? I just like the looks of the last one much better. And.. I am thinking on mounting it lower at around 2,85 meter high, so every centimeter less...

    Corner mount a SD22204T-GN

    I would like to corner mount a mini-ptz sd22204T-GN According to the accesory selection pdf: http://www.dahuasecurity.com/download/Accessory_Selection2016093059.pdf You can use a pfa137 which can be mount on a pfa151. This leads to a vertical mounted ptz which limits the use i think. An idea...

    Painting cameras ?

    I have 2 hikvision cameras with plasti dip to match the colors of the house. No issues during the summer but there is not that much energy in the sun here compared to Florida i guess. For solar panels we need to calculate with .85 factor. Also only few days per year only shiny and hot waether in...
