Steven_W Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Guys I have a customer who currently has an Alien Hero 4 channel HD-SDI DVR with 3 x NiteDevil HD cameras (all from System Q). He's decided he wants to change 1 or 2 of the cameras for HD-SDI 1080p PTZ cams. The current mounting positions of the cameras are approximately 40 yards from the vehicle entry gates. He's after the ability to zoom right in for facial recognition (not software recognition, just visual). I have been pointed in the direction of the HDSDI-PTZ610W from System Q, High Speed HD-SDI 1080p PTZ With 2.1 Megapixel Lens, 18x Optical Zoom, 14x IRs & WDR Have any of you guys either installed this particular model, or any others that are HD-SDI compliant that work well? If so could you put the model numbers and wholesaler links? I have accounts with System Q & Luxrite & Dragon Select but obviously can buy from whoever is best... Thanks all!
datadiffusion Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Security Warehouse do a great HD SDI range but no PTZs AFAIK So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
PeterJames Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 I can never understand why domestics want PTZ's unless of course the have security guards operating them 24/7

For the same budget 3 or 4 fixed cams, same coverage, half the price, a lot less to go wrong. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
Steven_W Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 Yeah I had that conversation with them but they still want PTZ!
Dick Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I can never understand why domestics want PTZ's unless of course the have security guards operating them 24/7The OP stated he wanted face recognition from 40 yards. I have a mixture of fixed and PTZs at my property. I'm at home a lot so controlling them, should I need to, is easy. If I'm out I can use patrol and rely on my PIRs to trigger a camera to a specific 'event'. I can also control my PTZs from my phone. Overkill and unnecessary you might think but I, and it seems others, don't think that.

It's up to you if you want to be an unpaid slave in your own house / on your phone whilst on the bus I suppose... I can think of 1000 better things to do than be tinkering with my own security setup. Each to their own. So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands
norman Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I'd be looking to move Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
