FWIW, several people have tried alternate lenses here with varying degrees of success.
The camera has an (auto) back focus adjustment, yes?

I tried different manual focus lenses and it worked fine. Strange.
Also, next time you can check Dahua Accessorie selector, you will get all lens options. Currently there are two models from Dahua available and I prefer this one, much more light.

Looking at our pricelists there is a varifocal lens for this camera too. I will try to get more details and post them later.

Is this a Nova or Nova2 chipset/firmware or something entirely different? I don't see this version correlating with anything I have on hand.

Note: We originally listed the F-stop of the Axis 10-22mm lens as 2.8, but it is actually 3.5, an even greater difference compared to the F1.2/F1.4 lenses used in past tests. We've corrected this above.

I didn't understand why to do a comparison between 4K, 20MP and 1080p cameras.. is almost like to compare bananas and watermelons, does not make sense. I think the right Axis camera to be compared with Dahua HF8835F is P1368, dont you think?
Of course the 20MP sensor camera will perform worst in dark and will generate a biger net troughput.
I would like to see a Axis Q1659 vs Avigilon 24L-H4PRO-B super hight resolution cameras comparison. It would be interesting.
