Just curios on this specs here:

HI3516CV300+SONY IMX290
2Mp , 1/2 8" Sony H.265 / h.264 Dual Stream,
4Mp HD Lens
With IR Cut, 1080p/25fts
IR Range 20m
Lens 3.6mm/f2.0

Are those specs for a starlight ip camera?

Thanks,
 
I don't have a link, is just some advertising from someone that i don't know from China that he/her is selling that hd ip fixed lens and is starlight version.
And out of curiosity i could not compare with some of the dahua cheap starlight brands...
 
The only thing is can see is the IR looks weak at 20m. There is no way of knowing with the information you have given. I have bought three different brand cameras with the IMX291 chip. Price ranging from ~50$ for a wifi and up to 110 for a 4X ptz (wifi). All thee of them have different features unique to them, but nothing special.

If you are looking to experiment, buy it. If you are looking for regular usage, buy a recommended camera, not just brand, but recommended camera model.
