Hello, I have a question, but first I apologize because I am translating with a translator. I'm interested in how to find out if a camera is original, I read a lot here in the forum, but I still didn't understand. I bought two cameras from a seller on AliExpress, after long messages that it was 100% original, I ordered them, but yesterday after receiving it, I turned on one and the quality is quite bad compared to my camera that I have turned on. I will also attach photos so that it can be seen, and in the first place I will put a photo from my camera

The DH-IPC-HFW2849S-S-IL you ordered is a 8MP camera with a 1/2.7" sensor, which is much too small to give a good image at night with reduced lighting. A 8MP camera should have a sensor no smaller than 1/1.8"; 1/1.2" is best.

What is the make and model of the camera you have that made the first image?

Thanks for your answer. and is there a way to tell if the camera itself is fake? for me in Bulgaria, the cheapest price for the same camera is 230 euros, so I forced myself to buy it from AliExpress for 110 euros, because after a long conference they guaranteed me that the product is original.
My camera model is IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B

Even if "fake" it is still not optimal sensor for 8MP.
If you are not satisfied I can quote someone else here that once wrote "buy once, cry once" and get other cameras.

I can highly recommend to contact @EMPIRETECANDY who sell OEM Dahua stuff.

Not fake, you just buy the cameras with normal cmos, the led camera with 4k at least 1/1.8cmos, the one we sell is 1/1.2cmos IPC-Color4K-T or IPC-Color4K-X bullet
So if your budget is limted don't chase higher resolution, best 4k cams have to pay much more. But for sure pics have huge difference.

Yes, the photos have huge differences, and I saw that the sensors in question are probably almost the same and the difference is big, I will try to mount one of the cameras below the current one I have to take detailed photos, and I can upload them here for everyone to see. thank you all very much for your time.

hello, the camera is fixed, and at the moment it takes a good picture, I guess, but at night its light is clearly not enough, the white ice itself does not shine bright enough, I guess, or maybe because it is one. and on the other camera there are two ices and they shine much brighter.
