Based on 25 customer reviews
Excellent Low-Light Performance
The DarkFighter technology works wonders. Even in low-light environments, the video quality remains sharp and clear. Built-in mic is very clear.
Great camera, easy install
Installation was a breeze with PoE. The AcuSense classification for humans/vehicles works pretty well, though it had a couple of false triggers.
Solid build, but software setup is tricky
The metal housing is incredibly robust and feels premium. However, configuring the advanced event detection through the web UI takes some patience.
Highly recommended for outdoor security
We have had this running through several heavy storms and it hasn't skipped a beat. The IP67 rating is definitely earned. The audio recording is crisp.
