HeadsUp 0 Posted December 17, 2011 Arecont 3130M Daytime 3 megapixel image: Sorry I don't have anything fun to look at. would be a good comparison if there was a number plate or a sign in the middle ground of the shot and as rory said though in post above , a shot from the beach might be visually edible nyum nyum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soundy 1 Posted December 17, 2011 Yeah, I understand the cost of DSLR gear, especially the lenses! Wish I could use some of my old ones on a couple of my cctv cams.I saw one lens I'd love to have for my nature photo work, a Sigma 400-1000mm. you can pick one up for a mere $30,000. But that's only half the problem... you have to be able to handle a 35lb lens!

HeadsUp 0 Posted December 17, 2011 I was just testing a SD3 Pano for someone, I couldnt get a good focus at all, really crappy image, I was surprised. The auto backfocus didnt do anything for it either, seems like just something else to go wrong. When did you autoback focus? At dusk when switching modes, or when it was dark? It may perform better at dusk. Also, one nice feature of the Pana is the ability to set day and night focus presets, so you might try that as well once you are happy with the focus. Best, Christopher Neither, I test in a controlled environment. Either way the image was bad. Something had to be wrong with the camera, Ive used the Pano before and It worked fine, never used that Autoback focus though, but even the Manual Backfocus did nothing. i had a similar problem with a cam that wouldnt focus , pulled out the lens and removed a tiny bit of dust from the back lens problem solved . nice when the answer is a simple one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rory 0 Posted December 23, 2011 whats the actual frame rates? Can you put a regular day night or BW camera up there to compare? Guys, can you take that DSLR discussion in different thread ?

Korgoth Of Barbaria 0 Posted December 23, 2011 Its 0.4 to 0.7 fps Shutter with lightgrabber off, is set to " use 1/50s or more", with lightgrabber "on", shutter was set to "optimize quality". I can't put any other cam there :/ so no comparison I have other IQ752 installation in 2-3 weeks, so I will make some comparisons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssmith10pn 0 Posted December 23, 2011 That's very impressive that there is no blooming with the headlights and tail lights on the cars. I'm guessing that scene has a significant about of ambient light. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssmith10pn 0 Posted December 23, 2011 I wonder how much the snow is helping? I think I'll order a IQEye IQA32N and try it myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was also surprised I wonder how much the snow is helping? I think I'll order a IQEye IQA32N and try it myself. IQA32 =/= IQ752, I rly like those cams, but IQ752 have 1/2" CMOS, and Alliance series 1/3" and you can see difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ssmith10pn 0 Posted December 23, 2011 I was looking at there product sheet and assumed the A32N was the dome version of the 732 yes? I'm going to check another source because the quote I just got was way too high for a 2mp camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soundy 1 Posted December 25, 2011 If you hover your mouse over the first one, it will say "Zoom in (real dimensions: 4864 x 3224)" - that would be full, uncropped 16MP. The lower two pictures, I'll venture a guess, are 100% crops from the first one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was only a helpful suggestion. When posting images using https without a valid certificate the user will not be able to see it in the thread without opening it in a new window and accepting the risk, if they are using an updated browser. its a simple security measure built into the browsers now. So the resolution is to not use https in the image url. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's not recognizing valid sites, it may be letting invalid ones through as well. Since the links appear to be working for everyone but you, I'd suggest the problem is on YOUR end.
