    HIKvision vs Dahua for outside (winter -30C)

    Hi, Thanks for the info. I'm trying to find them at a good price. Here a local dealer sell them at 300$, on aliexpress you can get them at 85$ and on newegg.ca at 120$ (ship from HK). I'm also reading about that some a "grey market" and they are Chinese market and that you can have menu in Chinese (which is not an issue, I have someone who read it) and that for whatever reason there is no upgrade for those grey market camera. Is it true or it's just scare tactic so they can sell you the same camera with a 215$ profit? Also I'm looking at Costco, they seems to have Swannn, Q-See, and Lorex, do you recommend any of these brand? I plan to use IP camera (PoE) and plug it to my server and run a software like Sighthound (my server is powerful enough to run analytics) Thanks for the help, it's really appreciated.
  2. Hi, I'm trying to find an IP camera for outside and I live in Canada where the weather reach -30C in the winter. I was interested in the HIKvision DS-2CD2145F-IS but it seems like the lowest operating temp is -10C. Dahua seems to have model that goes down to -30C. What is your recommendation? What would happen to the camera when it goes below -10C? Thank you.
