Anyone has tested these two cameras IPC-HFW81230E-Z & IPC- HDBW81230E-Z

I’m in the market to buy 12mp 4k cameras but can’t find the reviews, recorded video posted anywhere on the web. I’m very much interested into two ip cameras dome and bullet IPC-HDBW81230E-Z & IPC-HFW81230E-Z. I’m buying 3 of each for my new house. Same time looking the best junction boxes for these cams as well.

Welcome Sunny,

For the IPC-HFW81230E-Z it looks like the junction box PFA121 will work for it. I like this junction box a lot and highly recommend it.

It's easy to get swamped with information here, so I wanted to share some notes with you

Please check out @giomania 's notes:
Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

I have also made notes which are a summary of a lot of the reading I've been doing here,:
Looking for some advice and direction!

Have fun joining us here.

I’m about to pull the trigger to buy 12mp 4k version cameras from Andy but couldn’t find any reviews or sample videos of these cameras to have better idea of picture quality etc.

Hi Sunny,

Email him: kingsecurity2014@163.com
and ask about availability, remember he is in China so he should be awaking up later today..

I just bought a house and am looking to upgrade from a wide range of wireless Foscam devices (C2B, C2B, R1, C1, etc) I've been testing with in a townhouse and had quite a few issues (they're wireless, dropped frames, weird compression artifacts, losing connectivity, etc). Any updates from testing these devices? These look like exactly what I'm looking for, high resolution, POE, sensors with dynamic range.

Welcome Foundbobby,

I would look at posts by nayr and others and see what they've been doing to test cameras, there are links to some of the reviews in the following notes.

For the higher resolutions ultra smart ones,IPC-HFW81230E-Z IPC-HDBW81230E-Z, IPC-HFW8630E-Z, IPC-HDBW8630E-Z also very nice, the Pro ones, now have IPC-HFW5831E-ZE, IPC-HFW5831E-Z5E, IPC-HDW5831R-ZE, IPC-HDW5631R-ZE. These cams nightvision not bad, just not sharper compare to the HDW5231R-Z and other starlight cams.
