Floureon H.264 No IR-Cut ??

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I have recently purchased a Floureon 8 ch system, took a while to set up but is working pretty well other than the picture quality.. I got 4x 700tvl cameras with the unit and currently using 2 untill I can get Upto fit the other 2..

During the day the colours seem a little washed out and green is non existent.. I will attach a pic to show what I mean.. All setting seem right, during the night it switches to IR and seems to work pretty well but when close to the camera above my door, the picture seems too illuminated...

I have been in touch with the supplier who has been very helpful but advise me there is no IR-Cut on the cameras and resolution is not high enough...

 

Is this right as was under the impression inwould get TRUE day colour and IR night...

Cheap cameras, cheap results. If you did get cameras with no IR-cut, then the colors during the day will be quite bad.

 

If you try the cameras indoors, with no outdoors light from the sun, I am sure that the colors will be way better than that.

Yes the cameras are better indoors, but that is no good to me, i need them outdoors..

 

They have offered me 4x 1000TVL cameras with IR-Cut for £60 GBP am i best to send the entire unit back or just get these ones??

 

Im a newbie and dont want to keep spending money..

I dont know what the prices are in your area but for that kind of money it seams you can get ip cameras, or if you dont want to rerun cable, get dahua CVI that will give you HD over coax and will be miles better than the cameras you have...you will need a cvi dvr...

I have had a quick look and would take me a little time to be able to afford Dahua,

 

Im not fussed about re-running cables as its not difficult in the property im in

 

Think its best i do abit more research, i was hoping to put IR-Cut cameras on my current DVR andhope that would improve the picture quality at least for now....

dahua cvi cameras are cheaper than £60 GBP unless its 60 for all the cameras together??

.. Yes it is £60 for all 4 cameras, I'm a little dubious about them as the supplier told me they have IR-Cut function but on the specs I can't see it...

 

If I keep the floureon DVR would I be best to source other cameras with IR-Cut??

 

Any recommendations ??

Even with ir cut they are going to look pretty bad...who really cares about color when you cant get a clear image....you might want to save the money that you are going to spend on more expensive analog cams and put it towards a future purchase of HD cams..
