Intercom live stream camera. Easy to install.
I love how it can take screenshots every 2 minutes. It also records the sounds. It's just amazing.

Correspondeu a expectativa
O que mais impressiona é o ajuste da imagem a luz da sala em que uso. Não tenho muita luz natural, e a camera consegue deixar a imagem clara, sem a necessidade de usar muita luz artificial.

Great alternative to GoPro
I did not do a TON of research into action cameras prior to purchasing this product. It was a last minute idea before we left for a vacation in Mexico and thought the kids would enjoy taking underwater videos and such. This little camera is a great value for the price. Videos are clear, quality smooth and does a great job capturing live action. The extra tools are nice to have although we didn't use all of them. The wrist remote control did not work at all but I wasn't that disappointed with that. Happy to use the on/off on the camera itself. The app to download the videos is clunky and takes a LONG Time but I have found that I am able to USB connect to my computer and just move files as needed. The on/off switch always turns ON but then immediately records which is annoying. I can't figure out how to just turn it on with out simultaneously recording. Having two batteries is AWESOME because the batter life is so-so. They charge quickly and having the extra makes it easy to swap out when needed. I'm sure there is a lot about this camera that I still haven't untapped but I'm not a movie maker and for what I use it for it's perfect and more importantly a great price!Pros:+Price+Video Quality+Accessories+Extra batteries+Touch ScreenCons- Wifi not great- app connection horrible- Battery life not the best- remote control doesn't workOverall - GREAT buy for the price and quality of the camera.

My third Yi cam...so far, so good.
This is my third Yi camera. I bought two previously about 2 months back and was impressed enough to purchase a third one.As with the others, the user interface is very good, connectivity is solid and despite some false alerts here and there, it capture motion fairly well.I did purchase a new TP Link router before I installed the cameras and so far I haven't had any connection problems. I can almost always pull up my camera feed immediately and even if it has to buffer before loading, it's only a few seconds.Range is impressive with the cameras as well. I have two probably about 20 feet from our router but the third one is probably about 50 feet away, outside of our house and inside our shed. Connectivity is perfect so far despite the distance.The only real drawback I've found is night vision is not perfect. You definitely need the camera free of glare with a decent amount of ambient light in its field of view to work well in the dark. Day time footage is quite clear, but it may take some trial and error to get low light footage to be acceptable.Ultimately, it's an impressive feature set for the price. Its performance in the dark isn't stellar, and you'll get a few false alarms here and there but coupled with a good connection and an SD card is a capable little camera for the money.

Crystal Clean image and fast image response
I have been using this POE camera for about two months now and I use it multiple times a day everyday. The installation was super easy, the camera has great resolution and looks fantastic. I love how clear the camera feed is to my phone. The live feed loads to my phone fairly quickly which I really appreciate. Motion zones and notifications work really well. The only thing I haven't spent enough time on is the app. There are so many different options/settings in the app that I haven't really explored and I haven't figured out how to set it up to record clips during motion events. I wish the app was a little more user friendly and basic functions were more intuitive to set up. I know if I took the time to really learn all the settings I would love it even more, I'm just busy and it's hard to want to devote the time to learn all the settings. I have used other camera systems, Ring, Eufy, and they do not offer the quality cameras that Amcrest does but their interfaces are a lot easier to learn. That's the only thing I would change. I pre-wired my house for POE cameras and will be buying more Amcrest cameras for the rest of the house as soon as I dedicate some time to really learn all the settings.

Was perfect for our needs!
At this point I give the camera a 5-star rating. We purchased it as a stand alone camera to monitor the foaling stall for my mare. I was really uncertain it would do the job considering how inexpensive it was. But for my particular purpose it has been great. I haven't tested the different levels of night time quality as I did not want bright lights to stay on and I assume that they would - but haven't tested. The ability to pan is great, although it is somewhat jerky and sometime hard to exactly how you want it. But keep in mind that I was trying to cover a 12x16 area in a barn and had to work around various objects. This morning - five days after foaling - I saw Annabelle (the foal) fidgeting around the small salt block feeder I moved up to keep her out of it. I was able to pan down to the one little corner not already covered and could see it was indeed out of her reach. I'm not sure how these would work if you wanted more than one and we already have a complete camera/dvr set up for the house and yard. This camera has saved me countless hours of sleep and many, many trips to the barn in the dead of night. For our purpose it was well worth it. The app does leave something to be desired though. The pictures above are nighttime without color. Will try to add daytime picture later. I hope this updates. I forgot I could take a picture from the SD card. Shows color in the day.

Picture is decent, motion sensor is very good
This wildlife camera comes in a well presented box, with everything laid out clearly. The enclosed manual gives a lot of detail and really helps with setting everything up. So it would work as a gift for someone.It feels well made and has a robust look to it.I have put this in our back garden to keep an eye on our pond, as we suspect a cat has been hanging around it at night.The quality of the picture is between decent and good. It can tend to be a little blurry if what it's recording is reasonably close to the camera. For that reason, we have moved the unit about 10 feet away from the pond and it's improved the sharpness of the footage a lot.Not surprisingly to me, the quality of the picture is markedly better during the daylight hours than it is at night time in the darkness. Although that's not to say that it doesn't produce a decent picture at night, because it does.The sound is clear and is actually quite impressive.It's been outside in very hot weather with the hot sun beaming down on it, as well as torrential rain in the last couple of weeks and the camera is still working perfectly. The waterproof seal around the edge is definitely doing its job.I have found it to be very responsive to movement in the garden and we have caught the said cat a couple of times entering the garden now, both times via the same part of the fence. So we have blocked that entrance now and the cat hasn't been back since. So the camera has done what we hoped and really helped us with the pond issue!

Works great! Putting the card into the computer i
The media could not be loaded.
I haven't caught any wildlife on this camera yet (unless you count bugs...lol) but I live in town and it catches my children playing in the yard, all the time. It needs to be in a good spot for the solar panel to charge (no shade for most of the day). My 9 year old usually checks the photos and videos for me because it catches so much of their backyard activity. You can use the app with your phone to check pictures/videos or manually take the card out. Using an adapter with the micro sd card on your laptop is sooooo much faster than waiting for the pictures to download thru the wifi on the camera with the app (the closer your phone is to the camera, the faster the download). You can save the pics/vids through the app on your phone-which is cool. You can also save them from the card on your laptop too. The last time we checked the camera, we had over 300 videos and it was probably over a week of activity. A wildlife area probably wouldn't have as much activity in that amount of time unless it is a feeding or watering area. You can set it to shorter or longer videos, or just snapshots. Once you start to play around with it, you find there are a lot of options. Once you set up your desired setting, be sure to turn it off fully, then switch it to "on", instead of switching from "set up" to "on". It doesn't always record, if you don't.

Great product
Good afternoonRecently I have been shopping around to replace my outside camera system. I have Amcrest inside and decided to try a weather proof outside one.I can say the installation was easier then with wifi units, I used a pod to turn it into a WiFi camera but acts likes like a LAN and it worked flawlessly. I had a dc 12v laying around from another camera which I used to power.Installation onto the house was easy. They provided a paper with the layout so the holes where correct. It was spot on. The only issue I had was connecting the housing back on. If over tightened it would pop off. So be careful, just don’t over tighten.I decided to use a micro SD card. If you are not mechanically inclined don’t go this route It isn’t hard but it isn’t easy. I use my hands all the time so I thought it was easy. If my brother tried it would have been used as a baseball and not a camera. Lucky there are other options besides the SD slot.The app is flawless and incredibly easy to use and navigate. Setting up zones for motion was cake compared to my other system. Zooming in with my fingers, listening to conversation, motion activation. Everything works and I’m pleased with itNight vision was as expected. I can see everything I need to including my shed.All and all I’d give it a 4 out of a 5 and would recommend it. If I had two way communication it’d get a 5/5.
