Hi,
I know from several trade shows that Effio-P and Effio-E are in mass production now. P got real WDR, E got Gamma WDR, but E is offered as more cost effective. The resolution of 650 TVL did look nice, but I am not sure what happens after digital recording, the current DVRs only support 540 TVL. Means, you cannot use it. But I think the entire image quality will be better than current HQ1 or others. Think it will take some time until DVRs are upgraded as well (since everybody is crying for higher TVL in analog sector, they need to).
If anyone is interested in the company infos I collected, just PM me.
