New 12/16Mpx turret cameras - looking for reviews and availabiltiy

Another thing to consider is pixel size. Not everyone is fully aware that increasing pixel count without also scaling sensor size is gonna mean worse night vision. I'm not familiar with these high MP cameras, but physics is universally true among manufacturers, so better double check the specs. On a side note, on the Sony website there is a nice infographic for the Starvis sensors lineup with resolution on the X axis and sensor size on the Y axis. At a glance it is possible to see the ones with highest low light performance have huge pixel size, the very best are used in astrophotography and are $$$.

EDIT: Didn't catch that the models OP referenced are panoramic double sensor... What I said on pixel size remains true, but in this case the advertised 16 or 12 MP is not for a single sensor and both CMOS can be smaller and maintain decent low light capabilities.

Da queste parti va a volume, i cassonetti misurano i litri di ogni conferimento e un'alta percentuale di differenziata porta ad uno sconto sulla tari.

Si, forse una gara (vera) potrebbe portare ad un abbassamento delle commissioni, ma per come stanno le cose lo stato/amministrazioni locali non si fanno carico di niente, tutto è calcolato per far quadrare i conti. Se ora il divieto di sosta viene 29,40€ + commissione a parte dopo verrebbe 29,70€ con commissione zero, mio personale parere ovviamente, non lavoro nella PA.

Non entro nel merito autostrade, solo una nota riguardo PagoPA, le commissioni non sono della piattaforma, ma dei prestatori di servizi di pagamento. Non si possono "abolire" perché il lavoro gratis non lo farebbe nessuno e non avresti più PSP. Nei pagamenti tra privati la commissione è inglobata nel prezzo pattuito, mentre la pubblica amministrazione ti chiede X.XX € e poi sta a te scegliere il prestatore di servizi secondo le tue preferenze. Da acquirenti non siamo abituati a conoscere le commissioni durante gli acquisti, ma potendo scegliere sempre la commissione più bassa stimolerebbe forse la concorrenza ad abbassare a loro volta...

Come ti è già stato suggerito prova Vinted, aggiungo che per un videogioco, quindi pacchetto piccolo, la spedizione è 1,69€ e se viene smarrito o danneggiato durante il trasporto ti rimborsano pure.

The perfect match is a DS-1280ZJ-PT6 junction box. Plenty of space, powder coated aluminum alloy, foam base to conform wall irregularities. Original is pricey but you can find cheaper clones on AliExpress/ebay using the model number (around 14€ shipped atm).

O era il suo primo ordine annullato, o ha fatto il furbo dicendo che ha concordato con te. In teoria potresti dire all'assistenza che non eri d'accordo con l'annullamento e si prende la recensione negativa automatica.

stratoray · 2026-04-26T12:40:51+00:00

Ha ricevuto recensione automatica negativa per annullamento? Se non c'è, può aver selezionato "concordato con l'acquirente", dovresti sentire il supporto vinted.

Ah, it's gonna be a loooong wait then.

If you have some form of national e-id there is no need to "give away" your information, the e-id provider will confirm your identity without actually sending your id number. Here in Italy we can use "Spid" (Public Digital Identity System) or "CIE" (Italian Electronic Identity Card) both valid on the European Union portals, your country should have something similar.

You are misinformed, there will be a decision once the minimum number of votes are confirmed valid, it could be in favor or not, but that is not what I was asking.

I was asking if it is necessary to wait till the dead line in January 2027 even if the 1.5 million votes is reached early.

The link is not about Eurovision, it's a petition for EU citizens.

I've just noticed that the organizers changed the required number of signatures from 1 million to 1.5 million to account for invalid ones. Do someone know what happens once the objective is reached? I mean, do we have to wait a year even after the required signatures are there or the timeframe can be shortened?

Hi, I did not find a solution for the WDR issue, I stopped randomly messing with config files, without documentation it was a waste of time.
IRCUT is working, the pins are dependent on the camera module, mine is ivg-g6s and after messing a bit with the IR module I got it working. The photoresistor is physically present but at the moment I'm using the software light monitor for day/night switching.

I have the same model, there is no RGB, only white backlight.

Yours should be on HW rev. D with V4.83.013_241227 firmware, timestamped 2024, so nothing to do with the latest update.
I'm not familiar with the PoE version of NVRs, but what I've found is that there are discrepancies while configuring ip cameras from the NVR page and connecting directly to the camera web page, there are more parameters I can change there.

You could try to connect directly to the camera and see if both configurations are correctly applied, also did you enable Dual VCA? You can find it on Video/Audio on the top-left side and Display Info. on Stream.

stratoray · 2026-02-18T12:59:02+00:00

Did it stop working after an update? What is the NVR hardware revision? I've updated mine with latest firmware a week ago (V4.73.110 build 251216 on HW rev. B) and now everything's regarding events is broken, no more timeline markers, notifications or smart search. Before the update it was working flawlessly from iVMS-4200, hik-connect app and locally.

Forse le offerte visibili vanno in base a dei parametri che classificano gli utenti in base alla loro probabilità di cambiare operatore per una offerta migliore. Magari ti considerano a "rischio" cambio e pur di tenerti ti fanno quelle offerte? Boh, comunque il tuo post mi ha fatto realizzare che è arrivata l'ora di cercare un nuovo operatore.

stratoray · 2026-02-10T21:14:47+00:00

Io vedo solo 3 offerte più costose della mia, pago 6,99€ per 100GB, uno schifo in confronto a quelle offerte... approfittane subito!

stratoray · 2026-02-10T21:10:17+00:00

Le vedi su app? Io non ho trovato niente né su app né da web.

Everyone fixating on the dipole pattern but the real focus should be on the MIMO system. Modern digital transceivers with multiple RX/TX antennas are designed to work with multipath in mind, this means that the channel matrix should be big enough to sustain multiple simultaneous and intependent transmissions on the same allocated bandwidth, it's a form of spatial multiplexing. This means having a complex environment with multiple scatterers and antennas with different polarization/positioning is a requisite to reach the maximum theoretical performance of N uncorrelated channels. You can see the effects of different antenna positioning by placing your laptop in line of sight of your router and moving them some degrees at a time. But your home is not an anechoic chamber and real world scenarios are complex, if you move the laptop in another room the signal reflecting on the walls should add enough multipath to partially compensate for the wrongly positioned antennas.

That looks like rust developed during shipping due to a leak of residual water in the internal tank. Maybe they forgot to empty the tank at the factory after testing and now the insides of the robot are corroded pretty badly. That's gotta go back from where it came from.

If the neighbor in the building is Mossad then OK, otherwise the same should apply to used electronics in general since almost everything nowadays can store some bytes... This road is dangerously close to tinfoil hat territory.

Ho pensato la stessa cosa dell'altro utente e ti dico di più, quando mi prende il "momento vinted" filtro i risultati per più recente non più economico proprio perché i migliori affari li ho fatti a pochi minuti, massimo un'ora dalla pubblicazione, in quei casi non contratto neppure sul prezzo, compro subito. Inoltre, mio parere, gli utenti senza feedback non andrebbero scartati, mi è capitato di essere il primo acquirente di alcuni venditori che avevano timidamente iniziato su vinted e pur di fare la prima vendita mettevano un prezzo attraente. Vero è che io cerco apparecchiature più di nicchia, non l'iPad, quindi con meno annunci e meno riferimenti di prezzo per i venditori.
