    Hikvision as a brand

    so if the dori of a camera using 2.8mm focal length is: 2.8 mm, D: 79 m, O: 31 m, R: 15 m, I: 7 m, that means it would be able to identify someone at 7 meter, therefore if that person is 1-2 meters away, they will be out of focus and therefore will not be identifiable?

    I'm talking about depth of field, not field of view. field of view is how much of the scene the camera can capture. depth of field is how much of the scene is in focus. field of view is measured in degrees I guess, but depth of field is a distance. in this case the depth of field of this...

    Hikvision as a brand

    Hi guys, do you know if Hikvision has an NVR that can handle both PoE cameras and wireless cameras? I tried looking for one on their site but can't find any. I know they have wifi NVRs, but those only handle wireless cameras.

    Hi all, I'm interested in getting a security system for the outside of my home. the company who gave me a quote uses Hikvision cameras. Are they generally good cameras? how about their software and DVR? thanks
