ini 0 Posted May 11, 2009 Good evening everyone. I just purchased 1 ea of KT&C KPC-n600nh, KPC-n700nh and Nuvico CB-SD21N-L bullets today....should have them by the end of the week. Would demo pics/clips be of interest to anyone? I wasn't able to find any and since I won't sell a product that I haven't tested I just broke down and bought one of each....everyone shouldn't have to do that. If they are too cheap to be of interest to anyone, I understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

videotiger 0 Posted May 12, 2009 I'd be interested to see apples-to-apples images to compare! I've found that spec's are as useful and accurate for cameras as they are for stereo speakers--for me it comes to down to how the image looks and other aspects that specs can never capture. (Listen up camera vendors!) I believe it would be a big selling point if someone came up with a very well-controlled set of image/video tests to allow shoppers to compare camera performance. There's aspects like color accuracy, image sharpness, and, for security cameras, the ability to obtain identification traits of subjects on camera that are important. The test scenarios should vary parameters such as ambient light level, lighting direction, light sources (solar, fluorescent, sodium), and distance of object/subjects from camera. Targets in the viewing frame should include such items as sample license plates and faces, whether photos or manniquins or actual subjects. The key, though, is the tests have to be tightly controlled so the *only* thing that is changing is the camera. (off soapbox) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ini 0 Posted May 16, 2009 Hey Guys- got all 3 cams in and am testing now. I will post pics Sunday. I have to say that I'm not at all pleased with the Nuvico. WAY to much noise at night with the IR's on. I have searched and searched this forum for pointers on settings for this model but I have spent 5+ hrs focusing and playing with the many settings and it's just not living up (yes, I said 5 hours just to focus...got any clients that are interested in paying you 5 hrs labor to focus a camera?!?). I will say that day picture is decent if you turn saturation and brightness down a good bit. I have the n700nh up now and so far a much better quality picture than the nuvico....can't speak for realiablity just yet, of course. I plan to test the three side-by-side tomorrow and tomorrow night and will get the results posted Sunday (looks like the Nivico may be off to ebay [ I was hoping for good results with this cam]. ...stay tuned!

I think I'll just move over to this thread so I don't have pics posted everywhere (don't want Rory on my bad side!! . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ini 0 Posted May 16, 2009 a quick note about the n700nh day pic: I tried my best to focus it on the far pickets, not the table and chairs that are directly in front of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ini 0 Posted May 18, 2009 ...think I may have found the problem with the Nuvico. There is an oily film over the lens with smudges....is it suppose to be there (remember, I'm a complete nube at the camera thing)? What household items do you all use to clean lenses?

There is an oily film over the lens with smudges....is it suppose to be there (remember, I'm a complete nube at the camera thing)? What household items do you all use to clean lenses? I still think the n600nh has a more crisp image than the Nuvico. The n700nh is the same, with more IR. What do you all think?

dopalgangr 1 Posted May 19, 2009 Looks to me like the KT&C's images are more in focus and crisper than the Nuvico's. At least to my eyes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ini 0 Posted May 19, 2009 Looks to me like the KT&C's images are more in focus and crisper than the Nuvico's. At least to my eyes that's what I get out of it. maybe someone more experienced could get better results out of the Nuvico (like say, if I had a 21" bosh monitor and tripods) but,....why go through the trouble?? If these KT&C's prove dependable, I think I may be in....at least for non-mgpixel applications. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ini 0 Posted May 22, 2009 Hello, ini where did you purchase the KT&C KPC-n600nh, KPC-n700nh and Nuvico CB-SD21N-L bullets? The KT&C's were purchased from a seperate wholeseller than the Nuvico's and since I'm a reseller, I don't think I can advertise in this thread. Sorry, don't mean to be an a55 but I don't want Rory on my bad side.... I do have the Nuvico for sale in the classifieds here at cctvforum... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
