jeromephone 6 Posted February 20, 2010 (edited) has anyone used this in a day/night application like overlooking a parking lot. I have to do a demo soon and want to mount this camera alongside of a sanyo 4000 and see what does the best. Edited February 21, 2010 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cglaeser 0 Posted February 20, 2010 has anyone used this in a day/night application like overlooking a parking lot. I have to do a demo soon and want to mount this camera alongside of a sanyo 4000 and see what does the best. I have this camera. It's a good solid performer in a nice small package. Be aware that some of the features are either/or, and can not be used together, but that should not be a problem for a parking lot. I also complain often on this forum about their implementation of ftp, which can only upload to a single folder and can not upload to folders based on date/time. The auto back focus settings for day and night is a welcome feature. Overall, I'm pleased with this camera. Best, Christopher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hardwired 0 Posted February 21, 2010 It's a pretty nice camera. I have some sample images here viewtopic.php?f=19&t=11322&start=150 Are you talking about the box or dome style 502? if using the box, make sure you use a megapixel rated lens. Panasonic has a great design that pretty much eliminates the chance of moisture getting piped into the dome, a common problem with other cams. The analog spot monitor output makes setup easier, and the auto-backfocus is really nice. It is only MJPEG in the 3mp mode, though, a lot more storage/ bandwidth if you go that way. The pictures are pretty good in the H.264 1.3mp mode, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
