    Reliability

    Not really considering, all the time wasted on comart and crap like that There is no real alternative to GEOVISION, thats a fact There is cheap and nasty and there is ok, but then there is geovision - Sorry But I wont be changing anytime soon

    I need a quote on 16ch geovision

    I wouldn't bother with less then 10 on each camera, Unless they are not important, because its always the frame you miss when the guys face is looking right at the camera or what ever, Time lapse was about 5-6fps, and how bad was that on 16ch multiplexer, Why bother going digital if its lousy footage You can always use SMART recording and have the dvr pull frames from cameras with no activity to bump up the ones with activitiy on them Its not hard really
  10. I purchased some ptz's and cars off jet view cam, the cards were counterfeit, Geovision arent interested, other then telling me to buy local, I sent one card back got a refund, the 2nd card was in a machine and was sent back, im out of pocket 3500 for a 2nd system for the client while this is going on, it has been delivered, and he refuses that he received it, I have confirmation from Hong kong post to say it was, and i cant claim insurance because it has been delivered, Ken lui says he moved offices, but failed to advise of new address till after I sent it Help

    I need a quote on 16ch geovision

    Better to get good frames and plent y of them, then 240-380 @ 2.5 fps like most PC based DVR's out there, Waste of time A guy took over a site we put heaps of cameras in, he rebuilt one of the dvr's because they have been installed for 4 yrs and never been serviced He didn't make any adjustments to the settings and didnt even put the site name in so its recorded on the footage Just whinged about the latest version being better then the old one , der My mate had his wallet stolen, one dvr was offline because when he rebuilt it, he didnt plug it into the ups- and the other where he moved all the cameras around and replaced a heap for the new owner, were out of focus and we got the mobile phone that got stolen, but its fuzzy, not going to be good proof.. so 1 week of PRIME footage is better then 2 mths of crap !

    Dodgy suppliers

    Yeah, its their Asian division Len lui, Can u talk to Canada and ask them help me, Lost on that one If I don't get replacement he promised me legit card, Issue were green images over screen pirated disc - had Chinese on it v6 Wouldn't work with v7 IE, security certificate had expired, Im disappointed geovision didn't threaten to shut their dealership own if they didn't fix it, When someone tells u its GEOVISION ( supposedly reputable dealer) then you tend to believe it when other products were ok Yeah jet view does sell on ebay multiple names I have found now We know geos rules on ebay sales Ah well my fault for trying to cheap skate and cut price in half to comepete with big players here ...

    Post YOUR Tested PCs

    I know 3fps I wouldnt personally bother I got for min 12 fps per camera, always find you miss something impoirtant and regret it Here its a good pc build Posted: Sat Aug 11, 2007 10:19 am
  16. Thats why the biggest Bosch reseller sells the Samsung 4020 range of domes in place of anything bosch has, they are the best vandal dome I have come across....... Price is still a bit high, but you pay for quality.. Plus the middle men
  17. NO I prefer these buggers got 3 on a car yard with dt's in the yard triggering cams to move on motion covers whole yard and u get 2-3 cams looking from different angles at scene on motion, Im looking for a supplier, as the one I got sold me counterfeit cards, so cant trust him heres a pic
  18. Albeit, I know wot ur saying Its like "Im not an Installer, Im a technician" Theres a big difference Someone who jus chucks a panel in a roof and walks away after grabbing his money is not the same as a real technician, someone who designs, builds, installs and maintains the systems, this is my neiche I sell what you need, not what I want to sell you Cause my supplier doesnt have what I need, only what he wants to sell me I understand and agree FULLY Rory on ur comment about suppliers, and clients requirements: ) see it all the time, Not just in security, but phones as well- people want voip and get lockeinto a proietry system, one that doesnt meet or suit their needs , typically why I sell IP PBX, future proof, outdoes ANY clients needs, and it adaptable. many customer are oblivious to this and have no real clue, just buy what they are sold I got to get some work done fellas,
  19. Dunno bout the GE brand (das sell them here "HILLS" or pacom is the disty for GE) Extreme is another not available from any disty I know of here This is liddle old aus, keep in mind Anyways a camera that can see 100"(this would be feet hey so 30+ metres =3 foot to a metre)) with IR, ? Just buy an illuminator, Must be a good cam, havent required anything like that in these neck of the woods, yet. Cept my own house, but I hooked up m-y 500w flood lights to ac-tivate on motion, Ness do have a good stock of IR cams I like.. I would use Bosch if the app requires it, Maybe the extreme ir Colour in the dark camera would be nice in clubs and that for night views... But havent required this yet, cause people sell **** like cop and crap based on price What do you do, they are idiots with no real experieince just tryna to make a dollar, like the patrol company here whos gone into providing FREE alarm monitoring what a fool how can you provide something for free when it costs money ) He wont last the year out.
  20. I do shop around I have and do use many brands, Im not brand orientated, but the samsung range is pretty good, I have used Ness, Kobi, Bosch, pana, sanyo, IFCS, Ganz, Sunkwang, LG, cp cam etc etc- Theres one guy who primarily uses bosch here, so what have you got to compete against when theyre all selling the same stuff- plus the least my opp knows about my business the better More then one reason I dont buy where they buy.... Working smarter not harder
  21. Ok -- refrased Best for price and quality- Ikegami and Pana is great but the price, plus your competing against people with larger discounts and better buy prices... Just doing a quote for 2 more 16ch machines and 2 dozen more cams for a site, ...Geez cant get away for the bookwork again
  22. VITEK VTD-MVH2910DN any IP68 camera will be fully waterproof. Have you tried the wdr of samsung domes, they go to low light with SSNR to cut out noise, Best Vandal dome aroudn I think IMHO 4150 / 4020, cheers
  23. Yah Rory, we dont have acess to that brand from our suppliers here (that I know of), Im trying to use everything Samsung where I can Its the best...
