    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    I got the 5mm lens, they offer both. Even though mine is messed up and can't get into the camera UI I mounted it up and just record constantly. Stunning difference in quality compared to the 4mp hikvision turret. old: Longse: Now the problem is my 7608NI nvr reboots every hour, didn't notice...

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    Web UI is not accessible either way. When connected to the nvr virtual host doesn't work, just error. When not hooked up to the nvr, just directly it gets me to the login screen where it tells you to download the plugin. Even if you install the plugin it just tells you to download the plugin...

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    No, couldn't get in with the virtual server. Tried without the nvr and now just stuck on the download screen, I install it and the screen doesn't go away. Tried IE, Chrome and Firefox. Still works but can't do the fine adjustments, just from the nvr. I'll see if I can get some money back or...

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    Update: cracked it open, it's right hand threaded so just unscrew the halves. They where pretty tight but I managed to do it without strap wrenches. Had to pull all the guts out to reach the lens to focus it. The set screw was pretty tight and the lens had to be turned quite a bit so I don't...

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    The seller finally responded to my problem, they told me to open it up and refocus it... Not what I was expecting, not sure if i will order anymore. Anyways, for those who are using hikvision nvr's, does your virtual server work? Mine works for my hikvision cameras but when I try to connect to...

    Thank you for the instructions. Ill give it a shot if the vendor leaves me high and dry. Wonder if it is reverse thread or an english translation typo.

    opening a turret camera

    Anyone have experience opening a turret camera? I have a longse 5mp that just arrived that is out of focus. I haven't heard back from the vendor yet so as a last resort I'd try to open it up and try to refocus it. There are no screws anywhere just a ball with a seam down the middle, I'm...

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    Just got longse s500, ordered 2/2, arrived 3/4. Had to add poe for $6 after the order since I didn't realize it wasn't poe. Ordered: http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/bxAAQlGG Disappointed, the picture is not sharp at all, all of my other cameras look better. Up close it looks alright but...

    Mini PTZ 2nd Gen: 2016 PTZ Camera of the year!

    Couldn't find an answer, but can the pigtail fit inside the arm when hooked up? I'd prefer to drill a cat6 size hole for the wire instead of the usual 1 inch hole through the wall.

    Camera Siting Problem- I'm looking for how to deal with a bright light.

    I would try to privacy screen out the light, it helps with my hikvision cams

    5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

    That's the link I ordered from a few days ago. He said they were off for the holiday, no one in the factory will be working for 3 weeks so they can't ship until after that.

    New setup advice, ditching 4mp

    Sorry I ment high shutter speed not frame rate. I have NRL under twenty like people suggest, i've even tried 0. Even in the daytime, my 3mp would be fine at 1/30 but my 4mp would have a blur at 1/60 for the delivery guy.

    New setup advice, ditching 4mp

    Not sure if they are the cheaper models or expensive ones. Problem is I ordered them when they first came out from aliexpress. I didn't know about the whole chinese region difference since I usually order from Nelly's but they didn't have them yet so I ordered them from china without knowing...

    Huisun 1.3 20x speeddome autotracking

    Most of the time it works like it does in video. Rain make sit wander a little occasionally depending on the lighting conditions at night. Snow, forget about it, garbage. It does seem to get peoples attention with it scanning about or following them which I find beneficial.

    Huisun 1.3 20x speeddome autotracking

    You can choose how much it zooms, default is no zoom. That and sensativity is about all you can set. Ive been leaving it off since rain, snow, dust bugs etc make it go crazy on medium sensativity.

    New setup advice, ditching 4mp

    I had a lightning strike that took out all my whole system, originally hikvision nvr and 3mp hikvision cameras. I replaced the cameras with the new 4mp which have been a major disappointment and now i want to go back to the 3mp. I have a mini dome at the front door but it seems too wide, it's...

    Just sharing samples of the autotracking of the 1.3 20x speeddome. I'm underwhelmed with autotracking but still like the dome.

    hikvision 5.3.0 firmware compatability with dahua nvr

    Solved. All western region cameras, they all work from the pc. Got it to work, under security I unchecked enable illegal login lock and disabled rtsp authentication. Not sure if both have to be unchecked, i'll have to find some time to experiment.

    hikvision 5.3.0 firmware compatability with dahua nvr

    Shot in the dark here since most of you guys probably aren't running a goofball setup. I've been running a few hikvision cameras on a dahua nvr, worked great along with motion detection. I upgraded most cameras to 5.3.0 firmware and they've been working fine until I removed 2 and put them...

    Hdmi to dvi

    Same problem here too. I have a hikvision 8ch and an LTS 8ch, both won't work with hdmi to dvi cable. Tried rebooting, different resolutions, nothings worked so far. I have two cables, both work on my computer to monitor.

    Am I wasting my time with this attempt ?

    Good job. I was planning on doing something similar before everything got wiped out from lighting. The plan was an nvr with an synology nas inside of a gun safe as a backup. Liberty has a kit with Ethernet, sub and power pass through as you might have already seen.

    Door kicker messes with my car

    You're right, drunks and just regular people walk through from the large neighborhood to the drug store all the time. Not sure if he's just an angry drunk or has a issue with us. It's a asian restaurant fyi, not saying it's racist but a possibility. The current setup is 3 overview cameras...

    Door kicker messes with my car

    So this low life walking by my work and decides to kick my passenger car door in. Don't know if he was drinking alcohol or what. I'm really disappointed in my night time video, reminds me of my old analog cameras. It's a hikvision 3mp bullet. The building to the wall is 60 feet so I'm not...
