The low light capability of large sensor cameras with low MegaPixels = bigger pixels.

Same vendor told me the 3332 has a longer warranty.

 

Frankly it seems to be much of the same thing, I don't think theres two models on the official hikvision site.

Both the models are there on the chinese hikvision site.

DS-2CD2732F-I is a manual focus/zoom so it cannot be done via software.

Only models that have a Z letter in them have powered zoom and can be controlled via software.

Like http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_show.asp?id=6892 or http://www.hikvision.com/en/Products_show.asp?id=9428

I would probably prefer a dome, but could not find one for sale anywhere? The first camera I found, but can't find 2nd part.

Are suggested cameras better than DS-2CD3332-I? I hear a lot of positive reviews on this.

 

Btw, will this do wide angle? I know 2.8mm is wide, but some places say 90 degrees, while others say 120-140. I'd like it to be a very wide coverage.

As to which wide angle degrees ,it depends on the sensor size and the distance to the target.The Hikvision 3mp cameras like the DS-2CD3332 they use 1/3 inch sensor.

I thought alibaba is for large quantities.

How many did you buy and whats the shipped price.

The chinese website lists both the DS-2CD2332 and DS-2CD3332 anyone know the difference,the IR emitter looks different one is silver and other is black.

The 2332 is a PoE camera whereas the 3332 does not support PoE and requires an external PSU.

Nope ,the DS-2CD2332-I and DS-2CD3332-I has POE .

The DS-2CD2332D-I and DS-2CD3332D-I lacks POE.

The chinese website lists both the DS-2CD2332 and DS-2CD3332 anyone know the difference,the IR emitter looks different one is silver and other is black.
