Hi Folks, I`am Dany from Germany. Sorry for my bad English, but i will do my best! I have a Hikvision DS-2CD4026FWD-A 2MP and i am very happy with it. My only problem is the switch between day and night. No matter how I set it, it does not switch automatically. There is apparently enough light available but the B/W Picture is a little bit better. I would like to switch this to the sunset or sunrise without any Software. Someone an idea how i could realize this? http://overseas.hikvision.com/en/Products_accessries_506_i5564.html cu Dany

And now? Yes, the Cam stay in Day-Mode all the Time. No Chance... cu Dany

This is possible but not enough. As you see the Sundown varies depending on the Season. This means i have to adjust the times everey few weeks. This is the reason, why i am searching for another solution. I have tried this Script, but that fails. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1UKFw49wspfR1FGa1kzSElNN3c/edit cu Dany

I thought a month would be enough (Jun 29)! ; -) V5.4.5 build 170228 The Problem is, that the Cam stay in the Day/Color-Mode all the time. There is probably enough light available but i want it to change to Night in the darker Hours. Some Users use the Blue-Iris Software to handle this. cu Dany

Nobody an idea?

Hi Folkz, first of all...sorry for my bad english. My Name is Daniel and i came from a small City in Germany. A few weeks ago somewone scrached my car for the second time, so i decided to install a Cam. First i try a D-Link DCS-3710. (Sony 1/3” Megapixel WDR Progressive Scan CMOS sensor, Computar Megapixel Vari-Focal Auto Iris lens: 2.8~12 mm, F1.3, Built-in IR-Cut Removable (ICR) filter, Minimum illumination: Color: 0.3 Lux, B&W: 0.02 Lux.) ---> http://www.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/Shop/ShopDetail.asp?ProductID=9367 With this Cam there have been problems with the sharpness. When i adjust it in daylight i have unsharp images in the Night-Mode and when i adjust it in Night-Mode it's exactly the other way round. A Friend gave me an ABUS TVIP52501 (1/2.7” CMOS Progressive Scan Sensor, Day/night, Minimum lighting (color): 0.8 lux, etc.) but i am not satisfied in the Picture Quality. ---> http://www.abus-sc.co.uk/silver.econtent/catalog/products/Videoueberwachung/Netzwerkkameras/Standard-Netzwerkkameras/TVIP52501 http://www.abload.de/img/kamerakopie1ysx8.png I searched the last few day arround the Internet for a good and sensitive Cam and i think the ARECONT VISION AV2105DN 2.0 H.264 MPEG4 1600X1200 D/N M (0,1 Lux bei f/1,4 ) or an Axis Camera could be the right solution? What is your experience with this Cams? I`am not sure because of the fixed Lens in the AV2105DN. Is this a problem in the outdoor usage or should i use the AV2105AI for Day/Night Operation? cu Daniel

Has anyone tested this Camera (IQ732NI)? http://www.iqeye.com/products/7-series/hd1080p.html cu Dany

Today i talked to the German Reseller of Aracon. He told me that their Cams can`t save directly to a NAS or an Server. They are only usable with their Software. Any other ideas? cu Dany

Hi Nimrod, maybe it could be a little more expensive. We tested the D-Link (0,3 - 0,002) vs. the Abus (0,8 - ???) and the Abus has a better Picture at Night. You can say what you like on paper so we think that it has to be possible to find a more sensitive Cam. cu Dany

That could be true, but the price of an Basler is nearly $ 1500,- cu Daniel

Hi 3RDIGLBL, why do you think so? I`m not set hard on the Aracont...my target is: - arround 2MP - very good night mode without ir - h.263 mode - saving to storage or nas - motion detection onboard with more than three zones - around $ 600,- cu Dany
