Do you mean that more expensive Reolink could work in my case? How about shutter speed? Reolink app only allows integer inputs, 0-125 ms in my case. I think even 1 ms is not enough to capture license plates.
In our online shop I've seen cheap 100$ Dahua, however, capable of something like 0.001 ms shutter speed. Could it be a scam?
...Soo Is far as I understand MPixels aren't that important in my case (2 should be enough), shutter speed is most important, also constant high bitrate is needed. How about frames per second. Is 30 enough? Ethernet cable length/bad cable? Mine is 15 meters long.
NO NO NO - a more expensive reolink will not work - they all suffer from the same concept of producing nice still images but motion is a blur.
What is the focal length of the cheap Dahua? That is more important. If it is a fixed lens 2.8mm it will not work.
All Dahua IP cams can set the shutter and the camera will adhere to it. Do you mean this site online store or another?
As I said earlier, you need a varifocal that is up to the 13ish mm focal length based on where your camera is at.
I provided a link to a $129 camera - just go with that and call it done. You will not find a camera much cheaper than that and this is a proven camera to do that with.
You do not need more than 15FPS. My picture above, which is a much tighter field of view than yours captures plates just fine at 8FPS.
FAST SHUTTER SPEED and the PROPER FOCAL LENGTH are two requirements for capturing plates.
15m for a cable is fine.
Bitrate can probably go with 4,000-8,000.
