HD Home Security Camera, Wireless WiFi Camera with an Additional 5db Powerful Antenna for Home Monitor, Pan/Tilt Control, 4X Digital Zoom, Night Vision -Black

Works very well. Been using it at my barn approximately 100 yards away, provides good video. Can hear audio at the house but not at the barn for talk back.

EDIT: I have upgraded my rating from three stars to five because there is an easy fix to the email problem that I described below if you are using an iPad or iPhone to set up your camera. You can’t do it by simply entering the information on the Dericam app, it won’t accept email settings. . But go ahead and set up the camera and then look under the settings for your IP address and enter that address directly into your search window. Using the password that you should have set up already, you can access the camera and it will take you to a screen that will allow you to set up the email address. The IP address is found on the Dericam app under “camera information” in settings. Another way to enter email info is to use a computer… the Dericam install app will work there.These are great cameras for the price. I have six of them in the S1 original exterior PTZ cameras, and four of their interior cameras. I just bought this S2 for the first time and the picture is phenomenal on my third party app. Not quite as good on the Dericam app actually. But, one of the touted features of these cameras is the ability to send you email alerts for motion. I have had no trouble setting up email alerts with any prior Dericam cameras, but I cannot get this S2 to recognize email settings. I know how to set up email settings since I have done it for all 10 cameras I currently have. But this new S2 will not even test the settings I put in . Dericam service keeps wanting to talk about the settings, but it doesn’t matter what the settings are if the camera will not even test them …so if getting email alerts is a priority to you, I would skip this camera.

I’m returning the camera (1080-P2), but I’m disappointed because it has the potential to be a great camera, particularly for the price. However, it’s let down by the software, user instructions, and some controls:Pros- The camera has a good quality image and setup was easy through the iPhone- The live camera feed was easily accessible on the iPhone and Mac (Safari browser)- The camera restarted without any issues after a power loss, although in one instance its IP address changed. This can be an issue because the web browser requires the IP address to access the camera.Cons- The full user instructions don’t come with the camera and so have to be downloaded. The information which is included is written clearly enough, but it’s incomplete. For instance, the camera has three “streams” but there’s minimal explanation for why there are three and how best to use them.- As a Mac user, I discovered from the user manual that numerous camera functions are unavailable through my web browser (Safari), including the playback recordings from the SD card. You can’t play the recordings back through the Mac web browser (i.e., you can’t play it back the same way you watch the live feed) and instead have to download the files and then play them back using other video software.- I was unable to access the SD card recordings through the iPhone- The recordings on the SD card appear as an antiquated directory. This, together with the fact that the Dericam recommendation is to have recordings divided into 10-minute clips, even when recording continuously, makes it an unwieldy process.- The controls for the tilt/pan functions made it difficult to move the camera in small increments, plus the camera response would sometimes be erratic

Out of the box,Reds and Blues appear, and purple, lots of purple. Defective? All my other Dericams have grass that looks like green grass. After a few hours of tinkering and watching YouTube vids with similar issues (google - ip cam shows pink picture) they recommended factory resetting. I did about 30 factory resets and reconfigs, then all of a sudden, the picture looked normal... It should not arrive like that from the factory.Now that it appears to be working correctly I can review it.Pros:Inexpensive for what you get* Decent resolution* High Frame rate* Compatible with BlueIris and many other DVRs supporting onvif* This is perfect for monitoring my driveway and the intersection close to my house (lots of accidents) -police frequently ask for footage to determine faultCons:* Arrived in a glitched state* Pan/Tilt mechanism works but is quick and coarse, no fine adjustment* Auto-focus is pretty much infinity* No presets for the Pan/Tilt* Cannot set home position, after power is removed, a reboot will not put back at the desired position but this is not usually found in cameras of this price range
