New Dahua 4K - 12MP camera - IPC-HF81200E

[MR2 0]

Maybe Dahua will use same sensors?

 

I really hope so... I'm really hoping that one of the big two get it right eventually...

 

the Dahua gets the ability to use the full sensor right (IE a 4:3 12mp setting), but then it has the IR sensors under the dome which will have that reflection issue

 

Dahua also told me that to get H265 encoding will require new hardware, so that's a bummer too.

 

if I have the choice between 8mp + H265 and 12mp + H264 it'll be a close call, probably come down to Lens if they are a similar Sensor.

 

I'm honestly a little surprised we don't have more people testing this stuff.

Why did you test under different light and time?

 

Because it's like 6 meters high and there is only one mounting and one ethernet cable. Difference in time is like an hour or so. Only difference is the lighting on this sign.

Damn, I hate it when I try to make honest comparison test, standing on -10oC freezing my ass off and everyone is suspecting some kind of manipulation or marketing action

 

Here is live view of DS-2CD4065F-AP camera, almost same sensor (1/1.8"), you can check how it works at night.

Here is snapshot from this camera made around midnight, cloudy sky, no moon:

EDIT:

Here is 4K video, not night, but dusk:

This model that I have don't support H.265, but there is H.264+.

I'm still waiting for 4K with H.265 and 12MPixel box. Fortunately Hikvision NVRs support H.265 recording AND 4K resolution display, I mean new I series, like DS-7608NI-I2

well, I appreciate the effort, both to deal with the people who make "no good deed goes unpunished" happen, and to reply to this thread I'm actually a bit surprised there is so few enthusiasts playing around with this 8+mp stuff so (almost) anything from anyone is most welcome

 

we have some 2CD-3332/2332's around so I'll see if I can throw up a direct comparo when mine turns up

Nobody suspecting manipulation at all

we just ask you?

Thx for demo

FYI the unit arrived at my normal site yesterday (it got here in 3 days... nice!) I'm overnighting it to the site I'm presently on to play with should have some sort of demo's or screen dumps tomorrow arvo

ok these things are crazy... there is a HUGE improvement, you want to download the two BMP's I've uploaded, then zoom in on an area to get an idea.

going to see what the Night vision is, and then I'll see what I can do about a youtube demo...

 

going to be moving this thing around between a few sites demoing, so I'll get some views.

 

when I get some time I'll post up some thoughts too.

Curious what lens you went with for this camera.

it comes with a good Varifocal, the FOV and focus can be adjusted in the camera's web interface, so no need to spend time getting everything right while your up a ladder etc

What VMS are you using with the 12MP Dahua?
