Hi all,
Currently using a Dahua IPC-HDW5541H in 2.8mm turret form to watch over our cars, hooked up to Blue Iris. Great during the day but not brilliant at night as it's a 1/2.7" sensor and F1.6 lens, so keep the exposure at up to 1/25, which means motion can be blurred. Would rather not use Infrared as it causes lots of issues with spiders.

I want a replacement that gives better resolution during the day, but was also as good as possible in colour at night. I ordered an 8MP Hikvision DS-2CD2387G2-LU, which has a nice bright F1.0 lens and a large 1/1.2 sensor. However, the suppliers have replaced it with the newer hybrid model DS-2CD2387G2H-LISU, which I notice has a smaller 1/1.8" sensor.
Before I open it, will this be as good at night as the older model with larger sensor? Or should I return and try to obtain the 1/1.2" version?
Thanks,
G
