choose best IPC 4MP

[modenet]

Hi, I'm very undecided. I need a 4 MP IPC with IR vision at least 30 meters. I come from a foscam FI9901EP. I just tried a HFW4431E-S and I was not disappointed by the lack of quality of the night images.
I ask your advice to suggest the best quality IPC to use with my new nvr 4208-4KS2:

HFW4421E
HFW2421R-ZS-IRE6
HFW4431r-z
HFW4433F-ZSA

thanks

You will not see anything at 90m
..

 

[modenet]

why 90m? I wrote 30m

 

[flynreelow]

he prob meant 90 feet

 

[fenderman]

why 90m? I wrote 30m

yes 90f...you are not going to see anything...you are better off with a 2mp starlight camera with strong varifocal...more megapixels usually means worse night vision.

 

[modenet]

ok, and what about optical?
as read from other post HFW4431r-z seem to be the best with or not?
or optical is the same of HFW4431E-S?

Why? The 2mp starlight will provide a much better image in low light..

Mmm too expensive for my home ...
I would keep under 100€ on aliexpress

Then you will keep buying junk and get the same crap image at night as you get currently...

That is not the same camera that was mentioned above, that's a china region camera with less zoom and a crappier sensor. This is not a camera I'd recommend.

The IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 runs about $220 USD.


On the cheap, this is your best bet: IPC-HDW4231EM-AS | Dahua Technology
it runs around $120, I'd suggest you look for this exact model and make sure the specs advertised match those found on dahua's website.
