VIDEO SURVEILLANCE IN FULL DAY AND NIGHT MODE
AFTER TRYING MORE EXPENSIVE CAMERAS, I FOUND THAT SOME EITHER HAD A CONFUSING APP OR NEEDED A SUBSCRIPTION TO SAVE VIDEO CONTENT.
NOT WITH THIS CAMERA — YOU CAN CHOOSE CLOUD OR INSTALL YOUR OWN MICRO SD CARD FOR VIDEO FILES THAT WILL BE SAVED AS 5 MINUTE CLIPS IN MP4, TIME AND DATE STAMPED SO THEY TRANSFER EASILY TO YOUR MAC/PC AND BROWSE THE FOOTAGE IN REAL TIME INSTEAD OF STREAMING (THIS CAN BE TIDY IF THE INTERNET CONNECTION IS POOR).
WATCHING FILM MATERIAL AT HOME OR IN ANOTHER COUNTRY FROM YOUR MOBILE DEVICE IS EASY AND THE APP ALLOWS MULTIPLE CAMERAS OF THE SAME BRAND/DIFFERENT MODELS.
THE PTZ ROTATION MECHANISM SEEMS TO BE ROBUST AFTER 8 MONTHS. IMAGE QUALITY IS GOOD WITH NIGHT INFRARED OR COLOR NIGHT MODE OPTIONS VIA THE BUILT-IN LED AND COMES WITH CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS, ALL RELEVANT BRACKETS, SCREWS AND A POWER PLUG.
IF YOU MOUNT IT OUTDOORS AND YOUR POWER SUPPLY IS FAR AWAY, THE CABLE COULD BE CONSIDERED SLIGHTLY SHORT BUT I AM SURE THERE ARE WAYS TO EXTEND THE CABLE. THE CABLE IS PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO THE DEVICE. REMEMBER THIS IF CURRENT RANGE IS A PROBLEM.
I STILL HAVE TO TRY THE CAMERA OUTSIDE... TBC.
FINALLY, THE FREE APP THAT'S INCLUDED: YOU CAN OPEN THE APP WITHOUT WHATEVER ADS HAMMED BEFORE USING ANY OF ITS FEATURES. HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY!..
I HAVE 6 SECURITY CAMERAS OF THIS BRAND USING THE SAME APP SO I CAN SWIP BETWEEN ALL THE CAMERAS IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE CAMERA CAN BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST IF NECESSARY.
