    Night Time Shots...

    We've got a prelude sh and mdx too. Yeah it's not bad, mainly just the black/dark cars not reflecting the light. Driveway lights on but how about the side and back cameras? Maybe turn them on or add extra ir lights.

    IR blasters - do you use them?

    I have the cmvision one in mikes link from amazon. Works pretty good but not that wide angle though. I use my old power supply from my old coax siamese cable system to power them so you don't need so many of those wall wart converters.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    Ask your vendor for a firmware update. It fixed my white flashing/ black flashing issue. Dreamboat and I both posted our files in the other thread.

    2MP vs 4MP?

    Just an update, my chinese vendor came through with a new 5.3.3 firmware build. The flashing issue seems to have stopped, now just ghosting a little, still happy though.

    Need help with placement of Camera

    That's not a wall its the light fixture in the right corner of the image. It's too close. Looks like it was slated to get it out of the way already but not enough. Might have to just move the camera.

    2MP vs 4MP?

    Once again I'm just saying I prefer not to order from aliexpress, but thank you for the tips. I don't want to deal with it though. I'm happy it's worked out great for you. I don't blame aliexpress, you don't have to defend them. I just don't see the point of buying us models from Ali that cost...

    2MP vs 4MP?

    Yes, connected to an Hikvision nvr, 7608NI-E2/8P I don't want to order from aliexpress anymore because of getting chinese model cameras that have language mismatch problems when trying to flash new firmware. With my us cameras i can easily update and call the vendor for support. Unless you can...

    2MP vs 4MP?

    Has anyone tried this to see if it works? My 2 camera's are terrible, flashing white in the daytime, and flashing black at night. Problem is they're from China so updating firmware is going to be a problem. Mine are firmware 5.3.3 I'll never buy from aliexpress again

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    I've tried separate power sources for both cameras and it does it still. In the web gui, and the nvr output. In 4mp mode it does it every 10-20 seconds also for the turret, in 1080 only with motion. The mini dome only does it with motion in all resolutions. I think it might just be a nvr issue...

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    Here's a sample of my DS-2CD2342WD-I firmware 5.3.3 recorded on a 7608NI-E2/8P on firmware US 3.1.0 at 1080p. It does this everytime it does motion detection, in 1080 and in 4mp. The flashing is driving me crazy, I can't figure it out. https://youtu.be/nsjzrGbQ7Kg

    Dahua NVR Works With Hikvision Cameras?

    I'm running a dahua hybrid with a couple of hikvision cameras. Motion detection works fine but the settings have to be set in the camera not on nvr.

    Hikvision's new 4MP 2-series

    Got my turret and mini dome, they dont work with my hikvision nvr for some reason even though the nvr says it handles 5mp. Works fine on the computer.

    Dahua turret with audio

    How do you get audio like that out of the dahue turret? Mine barely picks up anything, I have to crank my computer and speakers all the way up just to hear something loud.

    Eye level cameras

    I'd rather it be descrete. I have an obvious camera behind the register but it doesn't get great face shots unless they approach the register, dim lighting and bright light from the open door doesn't help either. I ordered the hikvision pinhole and see what can be done with it, maybe hollow...

    Eye level cameras

    Anyone know of any covert style eye level ip cameras? I'd like to place one in a lobby of my business to capture faces as people leave to better take advantage of the light. I've seen some cropped pictures released by the police from a local store that takes great shots. I recognized the store...

    POE switches

    Thanks guys. I ended up ordering the switch from Rakuten for $245 shipped. http://www.rakuten.com/prod/netgear-prosafe-m4100-26-poe-ethernet-switch-26-ports-manageable-24-x/247726604.html I'd prefer fan-less but it's for a business so it's not that big of a deal, the nrv has fans too. I'll let...

    POE switches

    I'm looking for a poe switch to eventually power a system with around 12-16 cameras. Most switches don't have poe to all ports and those that do are very expensive. I ran across this one: NETGEAR ProSafe M4100-26-POE 24-Port 10/100 PoE Managed Switch with Gigabit Uplink...
