	After testing it out for a short time, I picked it up another day to find it was unconnectable. The IR LEDs don't turn off, the reset button (which is does include) ~~fails~~ to do anything, and there is zero network activity. As it is under warranty I exchanged it.

	Later firmwares have removed MJPEG streaming for high resolutions, instead only 640x480 is possible. The H264 stream works in HD to ZM. It was necessary for me to download the app from Hikvision to a computer before I could get the H264 stream to show in ZM. Essentially, I had to download the IE plugin, browse to the page, and then afterwards, I was able to view the stream in ZM. This ~~means~~ Windows is ~~necessary. This was~~ not ~~required before. This is a step back from the earlier firmwares~~.		Later firmwares have removed MJPEG streaming for high resolutions, instead only 640x480 is possible. The H264 stream works in HD to ZM.

Essentially, I had to download the IE plugin, browse to the page, and then afterwards, I was able to view the stream in ZM. This isn't always required with Hikvision, from my experience, but this particular camera seemed to require it. More testing needed. Obviously requiring Windows is not good.
