NK8BB7Z 12MP IR Vari-focal Bullet Camera

[VideoFame]

Has anyone had any actual experience with the new NK8BB7Z bullet cam? I'm planning on purchasing this unit very soon for surveillance at the house. I already modeled the active camera coverage area I need to monitor and the NK8BB7Z puts 84pixels/foot on the target. So I'm good there.

Welcome VideoFame,

I suspect someone here may have experience with the international version of that camera.
Thus I would look for IPC-HFW81230E-Z or similar notes here.
IPC-HFW81230E-Z | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology

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.

Thanks so much for your response. I will check out the various notes that you mentioned in your response. I already own the fisheye version (IPC-EBW81200N) of the Dahua and use it indoors. Now want to install another similar capability unit but outdoors in the covered patio area. So the unit will be mounted under the roof and away from direct sun or rain etc. But it will get the Florida Humidity for sure. I really like the Bullet Configuration for outside mounting.

Would you please post the video sample from that camera? I can’t find any where 12mp camera video samples or reviews.

FYI - here is one sample - however looks like they only ran it up to 4K mode

What is difference between IPC-HFW81200E-Z & IPC-HFW81230E-Z?

 

[sunny0101786]

If i’ Not wrong the only difference is the H.264 & H.265. IPC-HFW81200E-Z Does only H.264 not H.265. Not sure about the lens and processor.
