2022 Latest New Dual-Channel Camera

[inpetrov]

Any update on this with some new video or perhaps review?

 

[EMPIRETECANDY]

Next week will start the review i think, will have 1 4MP and 1 4K.

 

[inpetrov]

Hey andy, when do we expect to see some reviews of those?

 

[EMPIRETECANDY]

Soon, the cams are at @Wildcat_1 he is preparing the review, should be released soon.

Im sitting over here waiting patiently for mine to come in ... I ordered from Andy a week or two ago this new one also. Im looking forward to seeing Wildcat's opinion and then hopefully mine gets shipped soon so I can throw my thoughts on it out there and see how well it performs.

 

[CCTVCam]

This looks interesting.

What's the pricing on these Andy?

One obsrevation from the demo video from Dahua, the picture looks soft especially on the wide angle lens. It maybe some work is needed tweeking these. Awaiting Wildcat's assessment.

 

[EMPIRETECANDY]

I test the pics not bad, price i will talk with them later if test this cam good.

 

[Wildcat_1]

Unfortunately some day 0 FW bugs here but already documented them, sent to Dahua and hope to have an update late this week, early next and will then start the review

 

[inpetrov]

@Wildcat_1 did you sort it out with Dahua to get new FW?

@Sim31 did you get yours?

 

[Wildcat_1]

@inpetrov yes I am using a test FW now albeit there are still some bugs that I've followed up on. You can keep up with the 7442K1-Z4-T40 review I started HERE. I already have a couple of video uploaded there. I will be updating on the 7842 separately due to some HW issues seen as well.

So much for an accurate spec sheet. Kind of comical, for the weight. Listed as 1,905 g (418.9 lb). Let's see how easy it is for one person to mount this thing.

1,905g is equal to 4.2 of your American pounds. Maybe ask your wife to help?

It's the decimal point, not the conversion. 418.9 lb?

There's just a comma, routinely used a separator for thousands. e.g. One million is commonly written as 1,000,000
One thousand nine hundred and five grams is four point two pounds avoirdupois.

That doesn't change anything. It's still in the wrong place.

Oh dear. Maybe this is why the US, Myanmar and Liberia can't adapt to metric - it's just too confusing!
Not trying to be rude (much), but was hoping to help.
Nothing's in the wrong place in this example.

Actually, I know conversions from metric to avoirdupois (English). And you are correct in saying 1,905 Grams is equal (roughly) to 4.2 Lb.

This is what is printed on Andy's linked Data sheet from Dahua - Net Weight 1,905 g (418.9 lb)

Now, can you tell me you don't see something grossly wrong with the spec sheet?

TBH, I only really looked at the spec sheet after this latest post of yours, and you are quite right. I humbly apologise for misinterpreting what I thought was your mis-conversion.
It seems that it's China that needs a little help - though at least they got the metric side correct.

We all make mistakes. Especially Dahua on their spec sheets. Notice both the NET and GROSS weights, have the decimal point in the wrong place. Looks like Dahua doesn't employ Proofreaders.

I can understand the , instead of .
and colour instead of color
even chips instead of french fries

but, please start driving on the right side of the road!

Quick update. I started the day time capture today for this one and will be bringing the footage from multiple cams into the editor so I can start getting that video ready in the review thread.
