LittleScoobyMaster 0 Posted October 29, 2014 Dahua is releasing a new 4K surveillance camera in the next couple weeks. Anyone know if it will be available in the U.S.? Also, when is the exact release date and price? The article just mentions November but doesn't list the exact date or price. Anyone have any advanced info for it yet? The model # is IPC-HF81200E and there is some information about it here: http://www.dahuasecurity.com/news/dahua-4k-camera-enhances-your-hd-demand-140.html "Dahua 4K camera IPC-HF81200E fully complies with the above standard, it adopts 12.0-Megapixel sensor, incorporating with high-performance DSP to provide extraordinary image quality. Meanwhile, the camera offers 12MP (4000 x 3000) at 15 fps and 4K at 30fps preview with a suggested bandwidth at 8Mbps, ensuring a smooth live view without network resource waste; in addition, the camera provides triple streams options to satisfy various demand in application."

SunnyKim 2 Posted October 29, 2014 Can you please confirm whether they use their compression standard as H.264 or H.265? No such information available to your link. If not H.265, then it may need their own software for play back. No compatibility with other software providers'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was trying to find that out as well but the Dahua general e-mail box was full last night. Hopefully they clear it out today so we can get some answers. If anyone has a more direct e-mail address, they might have better luck getting more info on this camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digiscan 0 Posted October 29, 2014 I'm always surprised when companies from China post official product details in English without having a native speaker of the language proofread. If I thought I was "pretty decent" at French, I would nonetheless have a native speaker proofread something I put out in an official release. Anyway, the camera looks nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewireguys 3 Posted October 29, 2014 Why wait for this when you can get the 6MP 30FPS camera from Hikvision right now http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_show.asp?id=9881 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We managed to decode it with SmartPSS, but there was some lag. DAHUA stated that they are developing a better SmartPSS version and a dedicated 4K NVR.

LittleScoobyMaster 0 Posted November 7, 2014 where do you get this in US? Still trying to find out. I've e-mailed Dahua but they can be a little cryptic at times. I've asked for the MSRP price but they haven't provided that yet either, or the exact release date. We should get more info soon as it's due out this month.

dexterash 0 Posted November 7, 2014 certainly H.265 for 4K I wouldn't be that sure! Depends on SoCs used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Must have had a tough school life I was wondering the same thing. Looks like this one is around the $400 range. I wonder if anyone owns this one yet? http://www.cctv-mall.com/dahua-ipc-hf81200e-dahua-ipc-hf81200e-12-megapixel-4k-ip-box-camera-dahua-ipc-hf81200e-12mp-ultra-hd-network-camera Here's some sample video from it: Anyone know if this camera could be used as a camera inside a window pointing outside through a non-south facing window?

dexterash 0 Posted July 29, 2015 It might work from inside if: -you have good or very good lightning outside -you can find a way to minimize reflections of/from the window (or example, an indoor bulb/TV at night) BOX cameras can be mounted outside using a dedicated case, with or without IR.

MR2 0 Posted November 8, 2015 Anyone had a play with one of these? I notice there is a version with the 1/1.7" sensor that might fair well... pricing at $500 USD might be worth it if they fixed the low light etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steven Winski 0 Posted November 12, 2015 Don't waste your money. I bought from aliexpress and CCTV-mall. I had bad experience. Get it local. I've used several places in the US including [edited], SuperCircuits, and CCTVCameraWorld. I think this is the same camera you are looking for http://www.cctvcameraworld.com/4k-ip-dome-camera-fisheye-12-megapixel.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found that 4K cameras from Hikvision have better low light performance than standard FullHD cameras. Have you seen my last uploads? FkqY5RR8uEk Maybe Dahua will use same sensors?

Securame 0 Posted December 10, 2015 Why did you test under different light and time? I was thinking the same, for a fair comparison both recordings should have been done at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
