5MP Turret POE Camera, UltraHD Outdoor IP Camera POE with Mic/Audio, 5-Megapixel Security Surveillance Cameras, 98ft NightVision, 103° FOV, MicroSD (256GB), (IP5M-T1179EW-28MM)

I have a few amcrest cameras now, I wanted another for the side garden where the kids play and we can't see them from inside. The quality is excellent, night vision is good at a decent range, it does H264 as well as H265 so it works perfectly with Frigate, also support RTMP and ONVIF for those that might need those features. It has a load of extra features too for detection etc, FTP upload and the usual privacy masks etc, I don't use any of those features as I have it connected to frigate so I've turned them off. Note, the posting said it was the 28MM model but what I actually received is the AI-V3 model. I think they're the same hardware, or at least appear to be, but the AI-V3 is newer. Powered by PoE or also has a barrel jack, no power supply included. A feature I found in the firmware on this model that some of my older models didn't ship with, but later got on updates is WDR (wide dynamic range), which makes it even better for outdoor areas where there is a lot of sunlight that might cause parts of the image to be blown out and top bright. Paid about £65 for this which is half the price of other models I've bought from amcreat, such as the 8MP bullet camera which is a bargain price for the quality. The sphere part (eyeball) is heavy and made from metal, has a screw closed door with a gasket for water proofing, on it for an microSD which I don't use, the housing (eye socket) is plastic but nice quality with good mounting hardware. Web UI is the typical amcrest one which is perfectly functional but I find very little need to use beyond initial setup since I use a "NVR" (Frigate) to connect to the video atreams.

I purchased this camera to replace an older Reolink that cover my Deck. The 2.8MM sensor in this camera has a great field of view. I`m able to capture the entire deck and a portion of the back steps. I`m running it connected to Milestone via its ONVIF feed. Picture out of the box is great, I did not have to make any tweaks. Night vision is far superior compared to my old camera as well. The microphone needed a small adjust of the gain so it didn’t pick up the noise from my heat pump. I would imagine not having the heat pump nearby I could have left it as it. I would give this camera a 5 out of 5 rating. Great performance for a great price. Oh yea, the Amcrest app on iOS is also free. I plan on putting an SD card in it as a backup of my recordings as well. Follow Up 12-17-2020: This is a follow up review to my prior purchase. I`ve since bought another one and have converted all my cameras over to Amcrest. For $50 you can go wrong. The 2.8mm lens has a very wide field of view and actually replaced the 2 Reolinks I had for the same area. Night vision is much better than the Reolinks and the microphone can pick up a conversation from over 50 feet away. I now have all 5 of my Amcrest cameras (two 8MP 4K and 3 5MP) recording 24/7 to Milestone via the ONVIF feed. The H265 compression is a must if you are hosting your own recording server. I dropped the frame rates down to 10FPS for recording but have them maxed out for live view. It’s a top-notch product and their customer service is great. I have been eyeing their WiFi doorbell (currently $80 here on amazon). Reviews looks good and that will be my next purchase. its great to have all my cameras the same brand now. I use their iOS app for live view, its flawless and the quality in real time is fantastic. I would not hesitate to purchase more products from them. Also, they routinely do firmware updates and security patches. A huge plus! Bottom line, don’t hesitate, can’t go wrong for the price!!!

مشاكل متكررة في الاتصال دائما ما تعطيني خطأ ولا تعمل الحقيقة متعبة جدا وغير عملية على الاطلاق

Product ok, but beware of seller. They cance lorder and said it is customer request for refunf.

Arrived very fast. Great little camera. Works perfect. Easy to install

The camera is great, easy to install and provides a great picture feed. Overall quality is good. Mobile app to view the feed / configure Camera is however horrendous and on that basis alone would make me reconsider purchasing another Amcrest camera again
