Review: Crystal clear, very sharp, easy to use camera - Wow. What a great camera. Crystal clear, very sharp. I can take a picture and zoom in for every little detail. Night vision is awesome. Far much better then my current LAView system. So one of my cameras was flaking out on me…a dome camera. I picked this one because 1) dome cameras suck if you are near a wall and 2) I needed a wide angle lens. So here are the pro’s and con’s. Pros: • Quality of image is outstanding! • Night vision is also very very good. Even when there is a streetlight in the street, the camera compensates for that specific spot and doesn’t kill the entire picture. My street is about 60 feet away from the camera and I can see past the street and to the neighbors house very clear precision. I wasn’t expecting that so it was a pleasant surprise. • Required me to change the password upon entering the camera setup…requires 8 character min. • The 2.8mm wide angle lens is awesome. Works better then my existing dome camera. • Is IP67 weather resistant. But you have to check the temperature because some IP67 cameras can’t withstand cold Michigan weather. This one can rated at -40 degrees! • The camera is able to be seen through Chrome, or phone app on and off home wireless connection. Definite bonus. I currently have an LA View camera system which requires “internet explorer”. Yes! Can’t upgrade the plugin. This camera can be seen anywhere. • Able to integrate into my existing system using ONVIF protocol. It took a bit of work trying to find the configuration. It comes standard with TCP 37777 but I was able to change the management port to 8000. • Easy to create HTTPS certificates for SSL rated privacy. Cedrts are only good for one year though. • Using SMTP protocol, port 25 tcp – there are buttons for easy setup of google, outlook, comcast, yahoo, etc. • Has the new high efficiency video coding standard / data compression … of H.265! So nice….especially when you only have a 2GB HDD. You can also downgrade to H.264, H.264B, MJEPG. • I even tried standalone…yes it has an SD Card that you could use even if you don’t have a NVR. • Software/app is very easy to set up. If you connect to the camera, there is a bar code you can scan. Done. Works via home wireless and also on cellular connectivity (not connected to your internal network). • The physical look/feel of the camera is solid! There are two red lights when the IR is turned on…very much more subtle then the old versions with a ton of IR lights. CONs: • They do have a cloud backup that you can use if you don’t have a NVR system of your own and SD Card is just not enough….but it is $6 per camera per month. Kinda pricy if you need coverage of 4-6 cameras.
Review: Value for money - Yet to use the pair of cameras for identifying people, but so far I'm disappointed with the following: 1. The night time "Infra-red" illumination LEDs are are easily visible at night and draw attention to the existence of the camera - can't be easily "hidden". These illumination LEDs obviously fail the test for "infra-red" (infra=below the visible red part of the human observable spectrum of electromagnetic radiation). 2. One camera seems to be more sensitive than the other. Daytime video capture (using Blue Iris) looks good - but I don't have another camera similar with similar specifications to use a benchmark.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what cable should i use cat 5e 6 or 7?**
A: A quality cat5e/6 cable with solid copper wires of 23 or 24 AWG is spec'ed for POE. Do not use cheap CCA cable. If you plan to bury the cable use burial rated cable. If you plan to put the cable in the attic, or in wall use riser rated cable. If in an air space ( like in office buildings ) use plenum rated cables. Do not use the counterfeit cat6/5e/7 "flat" cables sold on Amazon. Do not use the cables with CCA wires.

**Q: Is this camera supported by the Synology Surveillance Station?**
A: Yes this camera is supported by Synology and is listed under the compatible cameras. I have provided a link below for your reference. 

https://www.synology.com/en-us/compatibility/camera?brand=AMCREST

**Q: Does the camera have an rtsp stream?**
A: Yes and it’s enabled by default with H265 stream.  You can switch to H264 if needed.

**Q: Can this camera be connected to an amcrest dvr for recording?**
A: Certain Amcrest DVRs are capable of IP Camera channels, you will have to check the specification sheet for your specific model.  I have linked of of our 1080p DVRs that have IP compatibility.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ De las mejores cámaras para exteriores
*by C***N on 25 February 2020*

La calidad es excelente, de noche se distingue todo perfectamente pero hay detalles que deben saber: no olviden conseguir el eliminador a 12v porque no lo trae incluido. Además no es wifi solo se conecta por cable ethernet así que tendrán que batallarle un poco para instalarla pero la calidad que ofrece vale la pena. Otra recomendación es que si estará en exterior traten de asegurarla muy bien para que no se las vayan a robar como a mí (o que al menos les cueste). Ya que al guardarse todo en la memoria, si se roban la cámara se va con todo y tarjeta y el servicio de nube de amcrest no es económico que digamos.
