Reolink 4K PTZ PoE Security Camera Outdoor, 6X Hybrid Zoom, TrackMix PoE

Overall, this is a really solid camera with a lot to offer for the price. You get a 4K main stream alongside a Full HD tracking stream, which is a great combination. Despite having dual lenses and multiple streams, it still only takes up a single channel on an NVR, which is a big plus. The tracking works well, but it’s not continuous. Instead of constantly following the subject, the camera re-centres them and then waits until they move far enough off-centre before adjusting again. It works fine in practice, but it’s something to be aware of. A minor personal gripe: I would prefer if the tracking stream used the fixed zoomed lens at all times. That way, you could potentially capture more detail, even if the camera decides that level of zoom is too tight for the subject. The camera supports preset points (including saved zoom levels), which is useful, although it doesn’t have a built-in patrol mode. That said, this can be worked around using platforms like Home Assistant. Integration with Home Assistant is excellent - you get access to all four streams (main and tracking in full resolution, plus sub-streams), which gives a lot of flexibility. Audio quality is surprisingly good. The built-in mic and speaker are clear and loud. For the best results, if possible in your setup, use the PC app with a headset or separate microphone. Image quality is great during the day and good at night. Night performance only really drops off at longer distances, where you may notice some ghosting near the edge of the IR range. The white light and IR illumination are both decent. Other positives: Very quiet PT motors Solid metal and plastic construction Fast mobile notifications (in my case via an NVR) One final tip: this camera is frequently on sale, so it’s worth waiting for a deal. Overall: A feature-rich, reliable PT (Hybrid) Z camera with excellent smart features and strong homeassistant integration - highly recommended.

Wow, what a camera! I run these Poe as I didn’t want to worry about a battery powered option as you’d struggle with battery life with a camera as capable as this! It’s made the home so much more secure and as well as being a visual deterrent it’s one hell of a camera. It’s quick to respond to commands with little to no lag, I can track objects , patrol, have set points and do different things depending on what it tracks. The black and white night vision is excellent, but if you use the built in light you get colour vision in the dark! There’s so many variables to adjust to get the camera performing how you like! The zooms amazing, the dual camera is mind blowing how that works! I can literally pan amd track but still keep the original focus point in site ! It’s very clever and excellent quality and I’ve bought 2 and wouldn’t hesitate to buy more

Brilliant and easy to set up, great features and good value for money

Great camera, the image quality in daytime is very good and the motion tracking works well. I keep the 2nd lens for close ups when motion is detected and this works well too. In my particular case with the camera in the home position it does mean that the 2nd lens is basically looking at nothing very much until movement is detected on the main camera then it centres on it and tracks movement well. The lights for the full colour night vision are pretty bright and make quite an effective outside light, mine is overlooking our yard and at night time the lights come on when driving up and track us to the door. I did have a problem with the camera not tilting properly but Reolink's support was very good at sorting it for me under warranty.

Easy to install and set up. Great picture quality. The dual cameras are great for getting up-close detail without sacrificing the total field of view of the camera. The tracking works really well and you can set the sensitivity to your preference. unfortunately manual use of the ptz function is a bit clunky as it can only be used with on screen buttons and there is no compatibility with cctv joystick type controller's or keyboard directional buttons. Night vision is good and clear but cameras are used in conjunction with static cameras so the ir coverage may not be as good if its the only camera installed. I expect it to be a great deterrent to unwanted visitors as the camera will light up and visibly follow anybody it picks up. It would be nice if the cameras could be configured in a mesh and be able to pre-emptively move to follow subjects detected on another camera rather than waiting till the subject moves into each individual cameras field of view. I'm sure this could be achieved with firmware update or a future NVR upgrade. This camera is excellent and only marked as 4 stars instead of 5 as it could be amazing but most people will have no need for manual control and the deterrent of a cameras that visibly tracks potential intruders can not be understated.

Excellent camera. I bought it to work with my Reolink NVR which it does perfectly. I tracks people if they walk down our private drive and saves it to the hard drive. I can also view and control it from the Reolink App.

Dual camera systems have become increasingly popular because they bring more flexibility and improved image quality, whether on phones, security cameras, or dash cams.In smartphones, dual cameras typically combine a wide-angle lens with a telephoto or depth sensor, allowing for sharp zoom, portrait mode with blurred backgrounds, and better low-light shots. This setup greatly enhances creativity and detail.For security, dual camera setups often include a combination of standard and infrared or wide-angle and zoom lenses. This improves coverage, day-and-night monitoring, and detail capture. It’s especially handy in large areas or places requiring detailed surveillance. In automotive dash cams, dual cameras capture both the road ahead and the interior or rear view, providing comprehensive footage and added security.

The camera I would describe as another convenience camera for generic property overview. Here is why by listing the cons: - zoom view is only 1080p @20fps @1Kbps - quite poor quality(see image) - no HDR - no WDR(wide dynamic range) or BLC(back light compensation) therefore parts of the image are overexposed at all times(see image, especially night view) - lack of custom IR settings - no polarisation and no option to add polarisation to the lenses - lack of lens correction setting - in the app one can't focus only one of the streams, it always has to show both on the screen - lack of options for setting up streams - its either the main(only x265) or substream (x264) which is very poor quality. no middle ground - [edit] every few days the camera forgets the default position and moves, so all “no detection zones” are moved and it starts tracking and sending notifications(if set) which is quite bad, especially if you do motion recording only But here are some good things to consider: - quite responsive when detecting but jerky when tracking(not smooth) - excellent at pet, human and vehicle detection and filtering out the moments in video playback - image quality on main stream is good at about maximum of 5m away form the camera even in night conditions with spotlight on. - microphone is good and speech and noise is heard clearly in recordings - the camera do support 1TB microSD card(see image) as that is what I am using(Samsung Pro Plus series) good for a bit more than 2.5 weeks of recordings(see image). Not tried with any other card though, so do your own research. - it is compatible with Synology Surveillance Station - both of the streams the main and the tracking one(see image with info on bitrate and image size) - PTZ is lovely Overall it is another good "plug & play" convenience camera from Reolink. If you are after top quality image or precise (non)detection zones, then it is not for you.

Bonne caméra, avec de bons objectifs. Le suivi fonctionne parfaitement (suivi Pan/Tilt). S'inclue parfaitement dans l'environnement Reolink. Détection (mouvement, personnes animaux etc...) très bonne malgré quelques faux positifs. Attention, le masquage de confidentialité (pour masquer les parties publiques) et fixe et non dynamique, c'est à dire que si la caméra tourne, le masque reste fixe et ne bouge pas avec l'image. Attention également, le câble ethernet est un peu fin, donc fragile et très sensible aux pliures. Il faut donc faire attention à ne pas lui appliquer un trop gros angle.

Camara muy versátil

Es la segunda cámara Reolink que monto. La calidad de imagen es muy muy buena, la respuesta de la cámara es rápida desde la app y sin publicidad !! No hay anuncios en la app. Son productos de calidad y bien acabados

L’installation est simple avec le poe, un seul câble suffit. Le suivi de personnes fonctionne bien, la camera zoom et suis la personne détectée. J’ai dû ajuster la sensibilité en tatonant un peu. J'utilise la camera avec Surveillance Station sur un NAS Synology et l'enregistrement fonctionne bien. Les alertes sont gérées par la caméra. Le souci est qu'il y a deux flux vidéo et donc pour Surveillance Station il y a deux caméras différentes. Avec 2 enregistrements différents et deux licences de caméra utilisées... Même si la caméra à deux objectifs, ils sont indissociables puisqu'ils ne peuvent pas bouger indépendamment. Seule une des deux camera est en 4k (celle qui zoom) l'autre est de qualité inférieure. EDIT : Celà fait quelques mois qu'elle fonctionne parfaitement par tout les temps. Les images sont nettes, on peut facilement reconnaître un visage ou une plaque d'immatriculation la nuit, même par temps pluvieux et sombre. Lorsqu'il pleut ou qu'il neige, ça génère beaucoup de fausses détections de personne ou véhicule. Globalement je ne regrette pas mon achat, j'utilise l'enregistrement en continu sur le Nas, pour les personnes qui utilisent le cloud les alertes pourraient être trop nombreuses et utiliser beaucoup d'espace. Les autocollants fourni avec ne sont pas réglementaires avec les mentions légales ( différentesselon les pays)

Beste, scherpste en fijnste camera in mijn systeem nu. Alleen de oudere NVR trekt deze camera niet zo heel best. Snel maar een nieuwe bestellen en kijken of het dan beter gaat.
