+## [1.5.0] — 2026-06-12
+
+### Added
+
+- **SV3C brand** (13 cameras incl. C25 & C12 verified via Amazon): PoE bullets/domes, WiFi/PoE PTZs, solar dual-lens kit — all specs from official product pages; honest ONVIF notes (C25 and the original B05W have ONVIF, the rest are RTSP-only)
+- **Dahua DH-SDT7425-4P-AD3E-PV-i** (issue #11) — CN-market dual-channel panoramic+PTZ with full datasheet specs: 180° stitched 3840x1080 panoramic + 4MP 25x PTZ, starlight 0.001 lux, DC 36V/35W, Smart H.265, 150m IR + white light deterrence. ONVIF autotracking behavior verified via frigate#22135 (Channel 2 has unified VideoEncoder+PTZ profile, unlike SDT4E series)
+- **Real video/power specs** for 4 Reolink doorbells and 12 Reolink cameras from official datasheets
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Full Dahua config audit** (109 cameras): 8 panoramic/multi-sensor cameras got stitched-stream aspect-ratio and channel-layout notes, 8 PTZs got ONVIF autotracking instructions, 4 HDCVI analog cameras corrected (were listed as ethernet with invalid protocol — now coax), 2 duplicates removed, 1 misnamed ZAS varifocal variant renamed
+- **Full Hikvision config audit** (150 cameras): PanoVu 4-sensor channel layout (101/201/301/401), TandemVu PTZ+bullet dual-camera setup, fisheye dewarp channel notes, 12 PTZs got ONVIF autotracking setup (incl. the enable-Integration-Protocol gotcha), 5 analog cameras corrected from "hdcvi" (Dahua's tech) to Turbo HD (HD-TVI) over coax, 2 miscategorized types fixed (DS-2CD2385G1-I → turret, DS-2CD2443G2-I(W) → box), solar camera got battery-drain warning
+
+- **Fabricated RTSP/configs removed** from 13 more cameras: Aqara G3/G5 Pro (HomeKit/Matter only), Zebronics, Wyze battery & floodlight cameras (docker-wyze-bridge notes), Yale (cloud-only), ABUS battery model
+- **22 duplicate camera files removed**: Axis, Arlo, Dahua, Google Nest, Hikvision, Reolink, Uniview, Tapo, ADT, CP Plus, Somfy duplicates consolidated with markets merged
+- **Night vision corrections**: Axis P5655-E (has OptimizedIR), Hikvision DS-2CD2025FWD-I ("-I" suffix = EXIR 30m)
+- **9 cameras** missing `power_source` field populated (Arlo, Eufy, Ring)
+- **IK vandal ratings** moved out of `ip_rating` field into features (9 cameras)
+- **12 cameras** with empty connectivity fixed (4G/WiFi derived from model specs)
+- **22 enterprise cameras** had redundant `http` protocol removed
+- **15 cameras** with megapixel/resolution mismatches corrected
+- **Doorbell detect configs** flipped to portrait for UniFi G4 Doorbell/Pro
+- **Cathexis cameras**: RTSP added (ONVIF implies RTSP)
+- Thermal Axis cameras: corrected megapixels (0.3MP/0.08MP LWIR sensors)
+
+### Changed
+
+- Database now covers **1,314 cameras** across **67 brands**
