know any good PTZ turrets ?

It has to be those swirls... I don't know why engineers would design a camera with a crappy plastic dome. It does not make sense. I believe most of it is from swirls.. they must be amplifying it.

Well not much to say.. As they say.... it's all in the picture. It cleared up. So now the question is... Could it be the Dome itself and the swirls? With Dome With out Dome

Yup.. i was going to do that too.. Sorry i forgot to mention that.

Took the lens off and i did find circular swirls marks/scratches on the outside of the dome. These are microscopic swirls as if you would see on a car after waxing it... not noticeable, but when you hold the lens at the sky sideways, you do see them. I did clean the inside of the dome and did...

Small glare star streaks are ok.. but the massive ones i see are a waste of money for any camera.. I just cant understand that Russian video.. that is the same camera i have with very very small star burst almost not noticeable. There is tons of lighting in both videos.. mine has to be...

I can do that later.. but for now i have a 8.5" over hang "soffet" that it will be under about 12-15 feet off the ground.

Great question.. I want the ability to auto track moving objects. day and night and hopefull get a few plates here and there. i would need a PTZ for this.. The dome also makes it kinda hard to see where the lens is tracking unless you walk right up to it.. This would be good but would...

I just noticed you are running Blue Iris... I know this has been talked about many times... but what is the one benefit that out weighs the nvr?

I hear ya... why would they make dome if there were so many lighting issues?

Hi Folks, I'm looking into PTZ 4x or 25x dome cameras and wanted to know what you all think about other vendors? Is Hikvision cameras the way to go or Dahua ? or amcrest ? Axis ? What good experiences have you had with your PTZ ? Budget around $500 - $550 Thanks

Thats not so bad... I could live with those effects... BTW what camera is that ? i do see some scuff on the dome when you shine a flash light on it side ways... I'll return this one and swap it for another... just to rule out any camera issues. Anyone have a good FOV chart? Is...

Im not promoting any video.... but during my research this video does not show any star effect... This is the same camera. Very small to say the least.

this is the iris almost fully closed.

I tried all of the settings.... In order to minimize the stars, the image will have to be really dark. (last screen shot) Pretty frustrated at this point. dome is clean.. I cleaned it with microfiber cloth.. "Outside Only...: Limiting the "gain" from 95 - 50 seemed to minimize the...

n/p Ah yes... very cool.. where do you have that mounted.. how many feet above ground ?

those are not PTZ.. i have those as well... Great camera.

If i may ask... what outdoor PTZ cameras are you using ?

So is this consist with outdoor dome cameras ?

I will try cleaning the outside of the dome.. I have not opened the inside at all.

Here is the actual image.

Can this be an issue with all plastic dome cameras ?

Yes, thank you.. This is the model

Its an example of what i see from the camera.. this is not the actual image taken from my camera, but an example of the streaks i'm seeing from light.

Hi Folks, I'm seeing light streaks at night from street lights, coach lights, car headlights and tail lights. Anyone else have this issue with the Hikvision DS-2DE4A404IW-DE 4MP ? If so, how did you correct it ? similar to this example thanks,

same price as amazon.

Good to know.. Thanks!

I'm looking as well.. U personally think they should up the bandwidth. 160 Mb/s incoming and 80 Mb/s outgoing bandwidth

I see Amcrest gaining some speed these days.. They make cheaper camera.. 4K is really nice.

Are these two the same ? https://us.hikvision.com/en/products/cameras/network-camera/performance-series/outdoor-turret/8-mp-wdr-vari-focal-network-turret https://amcrest.com/prohd-4k-8mp-dome-poe-ip-camera-security-optical-zoom-ip67-weatherproof-microsd-recording-white-ip8m-mt2544ew.html
