  • hi! can sanyo vcc-hd4000p be operated without a digital video recorder and record the events?
  • Sorry John, the Sanyo VCC-HD4000 is now end-of-life and no longer available to purchase.
    Many IP cameras can record to an internal SD or micro-SD card, take a look at our Flash CCTV webshop category.

  • Would this cope with 24 hour daily recording at maximum resolution and frame rate to an external hard disk ?
  • Hello Stuart,
    At 1920 x 1080 resolution, using h.264 video compression and 25 images per second (ips) you will need about 5GB per hour of HDD capacity for continuous recording. Therefore, you would need about 120GB per 24hrs.
    However, it's worth noting that you are unlikely to need 25 ips - humans perceive 15 ips as real-time video, and by reducing your record rate to 15 ips you would only need about 70GB per day.
    You can record to an HDD in a PC, or you might like to consider a QNAP NVR for recording.

  • would the following SD card be compatible with the camera:
    
    Verbatim 44032 32GB HD Video SDHC Class 6 Card
  • Hi Sean,
    I think so. The card format is fine, but I'm not sure that the Sanyo VCC-HD4000 can use all the storage space; the newer VCC-HD4600P has a maximum limit of 32GB, I thought the HD4000 had a lower limit of 4 or 8GB, but cannot find a statement on this.
    I will contact Sanyo Tech Support and provide an update ASAP ...
    I've added a new entry in the Sanyo category of our Forum with their recommended SD card details.

  • Hi,
    
    I have conference room and need a good IP Cam with a zoom function. I was just wondering if the zoom function can be controlled via IP or does it have to use the external wiring?
    
  • Hello Stuart,
    The zoom setting on the Sanyo VCC-HD4000P can be controlled from a networked PC or laptop running Sanyo's software (Free for use with one camera).

  • Hi
    Can someone tell me what mounting options there are with this camera?
    
    Can it be mounted to a standard tripod? does it come with mounting brackets?
  • Hi Iain,
    
    This camera has the standard threaded camera mounts (same a is used on all CCTV cameras, camcorders, and SLR cameras, etc). It's a little hard to make this out in the product photos because Sanyo fit crosshead screws into the thread to blank it off. There is actually a threaded hole in both the bottom and the top of the camera's body. It is the standard thread used in tripod mounts. The camera is not supplied with any brackets or mounts (nor a power supply/POE injector).
