    2CD2**6 vs 2CD2**5 for use in a nest box, much difference?

    i would stay away of both because 1/2.5 or 1/3 are bad size, you want 1/1.8 or under for good low light quality when you reach 4mp the G2 is newer and is acusense which mean: Focus on human and vehicle targets classification based on deep learning this alone, if i had to choose between the...

    for my camera it's the first thing i noticed and mine is a little bit worst with an aperture of 1.2 instead of 1.0 for my use case, i needed at least 6mm and unless i missed one, my only choice was a varifocal one and i didnt want a dome

    Looks like a camera died!

    if you want 16mm, look at ptz option, one of them could be DS-2DE4A425IW-DE 4MP 4.8-120mm Varifocal Lens, you get your 16mm here :-P it is a 25x optimal zoom camera if you are able to order from the US look at B&H, 580$ new or 500$ openbox or 410$ used look at varifocal option otherwise
