The camera has now been in operation for 2 weeks and I am surprised at how good the pictures are both during the day and at night. The range is extremely good. The picture quality is great and it's easy to install.

The device has a good picture quality but after a few days the device failed.

three modes are offered here: an infrared mode, a color mode and an alarm mode. ► Brand manufacturers are making it increasingly difficult for other camera manufacturers to establish themselves successfully. In order to be able to counter this, the scope of services and the price must be right. Can you expect a good outdoor-capable camera for currently around €160, which instead of Full HD (1,080p) offers 2K, a light with infrared and alarm, two-way audio and a horizontal rotation range of 355° and 120° vertically ? Yes, you can, because I haven't found any real vulnerabilities so far. So if you can do without 4K, you can buy a good device at an attractive price, which tends to cost more from other manufacturers and also offers flawless workmanship and good optics. ►► In short: attractive appearance, flawless workmanship, power connection required(!), sharp photos/videos, spotlight, two-way audio and with direct recording option (micro SD card), optional cloud storage, thanks to the motor. Control 360° monitoring possible. This ensures good comfort overall. ► There are many good reasons for a camera surveillance system, which is why I have been using various cameras indoors and outdoors for years. The K&F surveillance camera is specially designed for outdoors. My previous cameras are used to monitor pets, but of course I also want to know what happens in my/our absence. For many parents in the home, this is certainly a key reason to buy a surveillance camera. I really don't want to think about burglars... ► Installation: The instructions are very helpful and should be able to fix any problems. Within this, the connection of the camera succeeds quite quickly and you can then get started immediately. Here you can set a few things and call up recordings. First you have to agree to the terms of use and data protection guidelines in the German-language app and then register (e-mail, password). After this procedure you also have access to the data in the camera (card) and other settings ("Settings"). You also have access to your camera on the go. You are guided within the well-structured and so far stable app, so that the cameras can then be called up separately. On a smartphone/tablet, the whole thing with images/videos looks pretty decent, although you can make appropriate changes to the settings. Fiddle around a bit to try some things, e.g. B. when creating scenes, routines / schedules, within which the camera should be "sharp", or when the light should be switched on. ► What the cameras can do - Requirements for good reception Based on my previous experiences with other cameras of this or a similar type, I was not disappointed here either, although I prefer operation via LAN cable, at least indoors, for fundamental reasons. The respective image from the surveillance camera is detailed and sharp during the day. If you zoom in (digitally), this is more or less at the expense of the sharpness, despite 2K, because there is no optical zoom. In night vision mode and tending to low light and in the dark, the image is still satisfactory and not faint and blurry. Then black and white without light, but ok. If, on the other hand, the spotlight is activated, you have color and more details even in the dark. This is a certain added value and may also serve as a deterrent, whereby the infrared mode detects movements and then activates the light, while the alarm mode lives up to its name... ;-) The area to be monitored regularly should be narrowed down as precisely as possible in advance , so that the camera despite motor. Control does not need to be panned in the main viewing area. Not to forget the important remote access: this worked quite well in the test, as long as you are not stuck in a dead spot, you will (hopefully) be notified in good time if something happens. ► A battery was not installed here, which limits the flexibility in a certain way. A protected (!) power connection (possibly with an extension cable) must therefore be available. But this also has the advantage that the camera can be used more frequently without the battery (with or without solar) dying too quickly... ► What else is important? You have to do without an optical zoom here. However, that is not to be expected in this price range and is also not standard. But there is also a solid two-way audio (intercom function). All in all, a nice performance package. ► Keyword data/theft: If the camera accidentally falls into the wrong hands, the data recorded on the micro SD card will fall into the wrong hands. An occasional data backup (PC or similar) can't do any harm anyway, although the question is what third parties want to do with the recordings... (unless thieves break in and cover up tracks...). The cloud service is therefore not absolutely necessary here. ►►► Conclusion: Overall, the camera makes a good impression in terms of equipment and also visually. Ensure the best possible reception, because there are many sources of interference lurking in the 2.4 GHz network, which can have an unfavorable effect. If that works, you get a smooth, sharp picture during the day, with a limited wide angle, but also motor. Steering. The resolution in the dark is also good using the spotlight, although a number of details can also be made out at a distance in addition to the color view. Note: Alarms ("warning notifications") via motion detection/sounds are possible, ok for my purposes and therefore usable. Remote access also works, which means extra security on the go. Nevertheless, if there are any problems (too many/too few alarms), you should generally tinker a little and avoid moving backgrounds or background noise as much as possible. Despite the lack of long-term experience, there are also four stars from a price point of view because I like the scope of services.

Installation is a little tricky. Works perfectly!

The camera has now been in use for a few weeks. We use them to monitor a property with regard to person identification. With the help of an extension set, the solar panel is mounted at a different point than the camera. The camera reliably sends a push alarm to the cell phone when it detects movement. However, if the sensitivity is set too high, it will report any movement of leaves on the trees. We have now set it up so that it only reports when it recognizes people and false alarms are rare. The image quality is good during the day, it is blurred at a distance (about 30m), but everything up to about 10m is sharp and everything is clearly visible. At night, the sharpness of the image close to the camera (approx. 5m) is also good. The camera automatically saves videos when motion is detected. If you log in for no reason, it also records and saves a video. The intercom function works perfectly. Remote control of the camera (panning) works well, but with a slight delay, which may be due to the wireless network. There is also a slight delay when saving the videos, but this is not a problem. Overall a very good camera with very good workmanship. We are very satisfied. The extraordinarily good support of the customer service should also be emphasized. We wrote in English and the response times were very short. When we weren't very familiar with the device and had a few questions, they were answered within a maximum of 24 hours. We can definitely recommend the camera.

All good good quality fast shipping

The product reviewed here arrived at my home well and safely packaged. The workmanship is good, the material looks valuable. Everything works as it should and I am satisfied! The picture is razor sharp, even at night. The commissioning went smoothly and quickly.

Overall, the camera is very well made, but I doubt that it is really waterproof. Personally, I would advise against installing it on an outside wall, possibly even putting it under a rain gutter to protect it from water, for example. The installation and thanks to the app is child's play and the functions advertised in the offer work perfectly. The image quality in night vision mode is perfectly adequate. Price-performance ratio, I think that there are cheaper options for outdoor use that are really suitable for this.

bought this camera because I would like to monitor the courtyard. I have to say that this is my own property and the camera does not record public areas. As far as I know, this is not allowed. It is also important to me that nobody enters my property uninvited. This camera is great for that. She can distinguish between people and animals, takes very good pictures even at night and lets me know on my cell phone. Installation is easy and quick. My SIM card was already in the camera. Download the app and make personal settings - done. As far as I can tell, solidly made and wireless. I still hoped to be able to observe animals, but it doesn't work there. Nor should she. So I'm totally happy with it.

The picture quality is good. Unfortunately, after two months, the camera's WiFi went out more frequently, until it no longer worked at all - the camera then always reported you as offline. The solar panel is not suitable for charging. No charging despite 8 hours of exposure to the sun. Charging worked with power bank. Camera goes back. It's already the second W-LAN camera with a solar panel, where charging via solar doesn't work at all. The swivel mechanism of the first camera was also defective when it was delivered
