"Overall, we think these are moderate structural improvements that will help keep pace with other Western manufacturers but does not significantly improve their existing competitive positioning."
Who are we?
just curious:)

I'm confused, hasn't Avigilon had H4 cameras for a couple of years already?

I was provided a hands-on introduction to the H4 products last week. (bullet, dome, box)
The bullet has been reshaped slightly, and is a bit "fatter" than the older version. I liked the lower profile of the old bullets better than the larger H4 model. The domes have gone from rounded to square(ish) with rounded corners. I think the new domes look better from an aesthetic perspective.
The new swing hook on the bullet is a nice added feature. The dome base has a wire hanger attached to it.
In the box camera, they offer a 4.7-84.6 mm lens option (web site shows 1 and 2 MP models, but the rep told me the 3 MP as well, I believe). Wish this was available in the 5 MP model . . .
I did not have time to connect and test video functionality and new firmware. I did, however, order one of the new 8MP bullets. (only available with 3-9mm lens). I would love to see the 4.7-84.6 lens on the bullet line as well (including the 5 and 8 MP models).
I was told the micro dome camera models are unchanged and do not have the built-in analytics that the new H4 models have.

Here is the h3 bullet compared to the h4 bullet (physically) on my instagram:
I thought I would hate the hooks but they work out well - I'll still complain about the mounting holes on the jbox are too small for the size tapcons we use so we still need to make the holes larger with a bit
Overall picture quality is better as they have upgraded the glass they use for the lens, the camera also feels about 2x as heavy as the h3.
