The little size as well as the eyeball form of the video camera makes it best for indoor installation.The IPC- HDW4421M utilizes a 4MP CMOS sensor showing a maximum of 4MP at 20 fps, or 3MP at 30 fps.



For this evaluation I'm making use of the Dahua logo electronic camera classified on the box DH-IPC-HDW4421M. Package is white with the Dahua logo in red shade. I've made use of the OEM version of this the cam (identified IPC-HDW4421M) which begins brownish box. Technically both of the cameras have the same equipment as well as specifications, the difference being the logo design (the OEM has no logo on the video camera). As you can think of, the rate is different for both of them, the logo design one being more costly. For my tasks I generally use the OEM versions, considering that I haven't observed any distinction between 2. This model comes on these lens sizes: 2.8 mm (angle of sight: 106 level), 3.6 mm, the one examined right here (angle of view: 84 degree) and also 6 mm, special order (angle of sight 56 level).

To save the fooatge you need a Network Video Recorder or a PC-based NVR (utilizing a third-party software). From my experience this camera functions better if linked on a Dahua brand name NVR (4 channel, 8 channel, 16 network). It will deal with Hikvision NVR or various other brand names utilizing the ONVIF procedure (nonetheless in this instance it needs extra hands-on arrangement).

Mainstream is what's going to be recorded/stored on the hard disk, the Substream is set on reduced settings (resolution, bitrate) as well as it's implied when the system/camera is accessed remotely through phone (so it can fill much faster). Nevertheless on the application you can change between Mainstream and Substream.

From my experience: Face Detect works great if the electronic camera is placed on entrance factors where someone at a time is available in (for example the entrance of a residence) as well as if the camera is installed reduced, practically on eye degree. This cam doesn't support the Micro SD card, so you'll need a recorder that sustains the Face Detect to keep the pictures (identified faces).
