IPC-Color4K-T180 4K Full-Color 2×4MP Dual-Lens 1/1.8" CMOS Smart Splicing Network IP Camera Outputs 180° Wide Angle, Support Two-Way Talk IPC-Color4K-T180 (White)

This camrea has a great picture and a full 180° view with 2 lenses that take up only 1channel of a recorder. It may be hard getting use to a very wide view for those who have not used a 180 cam before. It has white LED lights that light up the area and you are able to adjust the brightness of them but if they get taken off auto or you shut them off the image will be darker because there is no IR. But with any surrounding light still make a good color picture. You can also record to a SD card if no have recorder. It has 2 way talk and ePTZ, a new feature that allows digital auto zoom and tracking of a subject with a fixed lens - pretty cool.

Edit after 1year: The unit has totally failed. In the middle of a mild rain it suddenly cut out and even the POE switch showed no link. I pulled it and it was half full of water despite being mounted deep under a soffit with a gutter protecting it. The soffit surface was dry, so I'm assuming this was due to condensation over time. Never had this issue with any other camera. I literally had to pour water out. Original review: Being able to mount a single camera for 180 degrees of coverage is wonderful. The color quality, color night vision, motion detection, and other features all work well. I really only have two complaints. First, there's a significant fish eye effect, not just at the edges of the image, but in the center where the two images are stitched together. And I mean significant. I set it up to test in my living room, and when I walk in front of it I seem to miraculously gain and lose 100lbs across the image. And second, the image stitching in the middle looks like a line where one side is literally a couple inches higher than the other. Things aren't lined up perfectly, and it looks weird. Beyond that though, when an object hits the line while travelling horizontally, it can partially disappear or become freakishly thin looking, then suddenly pop back to normal when it hits a magic crossover point. I actually spent a few minutes watching my own legs suddenly turn into toothpicks or multiple fingers on my hand temporarily disappear before popping back into existence. This could obviously cause issues with anything happening dead center in the view, so consider that before buying. Neither issue is enough for me to not use the camera. It's great having the color night vision, and the coverage is amazing. If I was going to use this to record performance spaces in a club or record anything requiring accurate measurements then I'd absolutely be looking a for a replacement. But for general outdoor surveillance I can deal with some image issues, as long as the security features work properly, which they do.

This is the best camera I own! Superb color night view, excellent day view, 180 degrees, nice simple setup that doesn't flood my network like Amcrest. Don't try to use it close up though. About 5ft in front center between the cameras is a dead spot where both are merged. 10ft out it's warped but reasonable. Is a side effect of merging 2 cameras into 1 image. Is sort of like putting a finger between your eyes. Am using it in Frigate.

Nice Cam Starlight is awesome at night. Many many feature perhaps too many to mention. having owned in excess of a hundred different cams. Im not disappointed (yet at this time) in the feature line up. If I were disappointed. it would be 2 things. 1: customer support? for me has been pretty much NON-Existent. I have posted a few questions none with any useful answers. 2: unless your Steve Jobs returning from the past. This cam is not very MAC friendly. Both Safari and Chrome on a mac (I have tried several different Macs too ). experience lockups and Slowness as well as some of the features simply DO NOT WORK. So use your PC or use a emulator on your mac. all in all its not a deal breaker the 2 CONS. but they are cons. YMMV

Great camera. Easy setup with Blue Iris. The image quality is great including at night.
