cglaeser 0 Posted October 27, 2009 The contrast on the Arecont seems too high (is it possible to adjust the contrast?), but otherwise, the detail is very good. Assuming the Basler is as focused as possible, compare the detail in the leaves. The Arecont has well-defined edges on the leaves, whereas the Basler is quite soft. Certainly, the high gain of the Basler generates quite a bit of noise, but it's possible to ignore the noise if the detail is there. Is that the best possible night focus for the Basler? If so, the Arecont is the clear winner between these two. Best, Christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a f1.0 lens I am going to try but once again it's not a MP lens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bpzle 0 Posted October 27, 2009 Any early morning joggers on that street? It would be cool to see the amount of blur, if any. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewireguys 3 Posted October 27, 2009 Arecont is the clear winner (my flood light came on for this shot) 3130DN day imager Made some adjustments to the Basler. Upped the Sharpness from 20 (default) to 80 and Gamma from 100 to 130 and the Exposure offset to -30. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skane 0 Posted October 27, 2009 More interesting ip cams using the Sony EXview HAD CCD (like the Basler)... Do a google search on "vitor VT-715ME". There is sample footage on youtube. This camera also looks like it's offered under the Secunext brand, and some other company I saw mentioned in one of the posts on this forum. I checked out the Secunext product at my suppliers office and the day/night image quality was impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is not Exview and the night time example is hardly impressive. http://www.vitor.com.tw/en/product/Megapixel_Network_Camera/VT-715ME.aspx Are you sure you dont mean another camera?

skane 0 Posted October 27, 2009 The youtube hits I found for the vitor are these http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwZvzlKq4Zw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glBCggCoWBU thought they were pretty good. As for the Secunext, I don't have footage, only saw it at my suppliers office. Thanks for the correction on the sensor type. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zmxtech 0 Posted October 27, 2009 dont think much of the basler a bit funky & splotchy.... the KT&C is shyte. Looks like the other Axis has way to much compression running. Areconts the winner. EX82 Nice......there is an IP version I hear... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted October 27, 2009 KT&C is shyte.. He says its just a color camera though, not a day night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah they dont look like a real BW mode, they seem just like a color camera with the chroma removed. B/W should be so much brighter than that especially with all those vehicle lights.

robert 0 Posted October 29, 2009 I do have some official Basler camera comparison to IQ, Arecont, Axis, Vivotek. Anybody interested, drop me your email and I`ll forward you. Quite interesting. Also, Secunext dont make their cameras. Actual manufacturer is MESSOA from Taiwan, www.messoa.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
