2.5K 5MP 2.4/ 5G WiFi Surveillance Camera, Indoor Camera with Color Night Vision, PTZ Auto Tracking Network Camera 2 Way Audio for Home Security/Pet/Elderly/Baby Monitor with Phone App (V9)

This camera is amazingly cheap - I bought it on Amazon for just $15, while technical specs and image quality are quite OK. My guess is that low price is based on hopes/expectations of buyers signing up for the Cloud sec monitoring service that company is selling.I don't want to use 3rd party cloud monitoring service for my CCTV cameras (especially foreign/Chinese service!), and I have my own Blue Iris setup for CCTV. This camera supports ONVIF and standard NVR protocols, so it is suitable for my needs, but supplied manual/documentation is not explaining how to configure the camera for use with your own NVR - the manual is designed to drive customers to install their custom phone app and connect to their cloud service.Information on the manufacturer WEB site is also rather limited, although I found one (marginally useful) manual: eleprotech.com/download/VMS%20-PC%20terminal%20operation%20manual.pdfHowever by doing some simple tests and tweaks I got it configured and working with my own NVR (BlueIris). Here are config steps:1. Power up the camera and connect to the WiFi network created by the camera using a computer or tablet/phone following first few steps in the official manual. I was using iPad.2. Launch web browser on your computer/tablet that connected to the camera WiFi, and navigate to 192.168.66.1 (IP address of the camera built-in server)3. Login with the user name "admin" and password "888888" (this is their default documented password).4. Use the WEB UI to configure camera to connect to your WiFi network (select the network and specify key), and enable DHCP (or use static IP) in the IP section of the config. This will cause camera reboot.5. After reboot the camera will connect to your WiFi network, and will get an IP address from your router/gateway (or will use static IP if you configured it). Now you can just add this camera to your NVR, which is easy since it supports ONVIF.Two things to note:a) default password on the camera is "888888", which is different from default password for ONVIF queries ("admin"). Don't forget to specify this password in ONVIF config when adding the camera, or (better approach) setup your own custom password using camera WEB UI and then use it in NVR.b) Default RSTP port for the camera is 8554, and server port is 6688. make sure your NVR will use these ports (or change it on the camera to match your setup).Overall the camera seems to work OK. I just configured and started using it, so don't know about reliability etc., but in terms of features & capabilities for the price - this is really good deal.

I am totally amazed by it's performance. It is small, fits between your fingers just like the pictures. It is so much better than I expected for the price. I charged the battery and it is still running on that charge after 5 days of being on and recording, the chage should last more than 30 days. I will update again on how long it lasted. The picture quality is awesome even in SD, HD diffinately improved the picture quality. There is a light function which also brightens up the area for a clearer picture. I was in Houston TX for a few days and wanted to monitor my home in Florida, no problems. I think I did not follow the instructions on the first app installation so I un-installed and reinstalled it and everything worked smoothly, connecting to wifi was really easy. I installed a128gb SD card for personal storage, cloud storage is also available. The motion detection is a great feature storing clips of all activities in it's range. I will recommend this camera to anyone who needs a small and efficient home camera. You will not regret it. The pan and tilt works smoothly for this price point.

Device carries a variable ip address that caused constant network issues. Once you initially connect this device to your network, it's seemingly fine, then in a day or so the mischief begins, constantly showing a new device has been added, sometimes multiple at a time. As soon as our IT guy narrowed down the source of the problem, we disposed of this device. Not even worth donating if you know it's going to cause problems for someone else too. I recommend going with a more well known brand you know and trust, even if cost is more.

La cámara es excelente, buena definición, lo veo desde cualquier parte del mundo y fué fácil de instalar. Muy bien producto

After testing this product for more than 6 months, here are my comments. If the purpose is to have the app installed on multiple phones, I would say that it is an inconvenient thing; since if one of the people is using the app and the other enters suddenly, the video freezes. If for example you want to rewind the video to see what happened a few minutes or a few hours, the image is not clear and starts to pixelate. Many times I wanted to download a video that I had already saved in the memory (which happened hours ago) and when I wanted to play it in the app to see if my dog ​​had thrown something, it freezes, does not show a clear image and I had to exit the app and enter again. It is a lot of show to only want to see a previous video that I already recorded. Another inconvenience is that when you want to download a video that I already recorded, it does not automatically download it to your cell phone, it downloads it in the app and then you have to go to where it is saved, right click and tell it to save it to your cell phone gallery. It works well, yes, but let's say that the application doesn't work so well. If you have patience, you will have the information or video that you want to see that I already recorded. Because I kept it, because when I'm outside my house and you have mobile data, you can move it and use it correctly. It only has the drawback when you want to save videos or something like that.

Excellent video resolution. Great microphone.Excelente resolución de video. Muy buen micrófono.

This little camera works great!They’re good if you live in a small apartment.We don’t regret buying this product at all. Easy set up. We may be buying a few more of these in the future!

This camera sucks sometimes in my opinion.It freezes and times-out at the most crucial moments of action. Sometimes I record and nothing saves and it also times out often and has to reboot for 2 minutes. By that time the action is over usually missed smh😪
