5MP Turret set to 6MP

[kolobos]

I recently upgrade the firmware in a DS-2CD2355FWD-I 5MP Turret camera with v5.5.3 build 171018 and I have noticed that in the Video/Audio Configuration menu I can now set a higher resolution. The top three being:

2944x1656 = 4.88MP
3072x1728 = 5.31MP
3072x2048 = 6.0 MP

Just wanted to share this information.

That's interesting Steve, thanks for sharing - I hadn't noticed, I will take a look.
Have you selected the highest option and had a look?
Does it seem to work?

Hi, same here
i updated my 3x 2355 cams witht the lastest firmware, and they too go up to 6mp. Changing to the higher res seems to work on all 3 and the setting is retained. Quality wise the image did "look" better maybe. but probably my eyes. you cant make a 5MP do 6MP. duh! i will do more testing and comparisons asap.
cheers

My picture quality is excellent and perhaps the camera is using the same chip technology as the 6MP with it being Easy IP 3.0?

Hi Phil, I have selected the highest setting and the picture quality is excellent, the camera is performing well and I have no complaints so far.
