My shop on Amazon: www.amazon.com...
This is a small PTZ dome camera that can be installed both indoor and outdoors. Image quality is good and night vision is decent as well.
It uses a 4 megapixel sensor with 2.8-12mm Lens. And records in 1440p at 25fps.
Since this is a OEM Hikvision camera it is compatible with Hikvision NVR's and software. It also support ONVIF so you can use it with any NVR or software that support ONVIF, for example Blue Iris.

Hi Securitybros, thank you for another great review, I am looking at buying a Hikvision version of this camera, I am concern about the IR Lights, did you think that gave a good amount of light? Cheers Paul

[@Securitybros]

As I remember I think it was a decent camera , been two years since I did this review:) But looking at the footage it looks decent to me. But they have better night vision cameras for sure Colorvu and Darkfighter.

@@Securitybros Hi and Thank you!!! ❤❤

[@akoifeelingera2824]

Hi i would like to ask does this camera and ezviz cam has a compatible NVR or DVR for both ?

[@PeteyPablo408]

Looking for a good 4k PTZ camera at a reasonable price compatible with my Lorex 4K, 16-channel N882 Series NVR. Can you recommend a good camera please ?thanks

[@huawatuam4965]

What is the latest firmware version and can i flash it with orriginal Hikvision firmware?

[@AC-SlaUkr]

It looks remarkably like the Annke CZ400

[@Securitybros]

Yes its a Hikvision OEM camera

[@jeangarabedian]

Hi, Good video! You sound like a Sweede, är du svensk?

[@Securitybros]

Thanks! Yes I am.

Hello, I use the Camhi app. Intruder notifications arrive without problems but do not make any sound. The question is, can I activate the notification sounds in the Camhi app? Thanks in advance

[@1000gregory4]

Can I set this up entirely through my phone?. Rather than using a computer please?

[@Securitybros]

I think you need a computer for first time setup since you need to activate the camera as well as the App Guarding vision in the web interface.

[@1000gregory4]

@@Securitybros thanks for that. Would you recommend this camera? Regards Martin

[@Securitybros]

@@1000gregory4 Yeah its not a bad camera. Depends what you need it for as well since it doesn't support patrol.

[@1000gregory4]

@@Securitybros or could you recommend another dome ptz camera that's a similar price? That I could use as a standalone camera please... I like the idea of an optical zoom

[@Securitybros]

@@1000gregory4 This is probably one of the better dome ptz in that price range I believe.

[@dramaaddict2011]

for some reason, the IP address for the camera changed and I can't log in anymore. is there a reset button?

[@gmax341]

Nice!

[@Securitybros]

Thank you! Cheers!

I'm trying to get this camera to work on my reolink NVR, I have everything set the way I think I'm supposed to, and it works on the internet if I have it plugged into my router, but won't work on the nvr.

[@Securitybros]

Do you connect using ONVIF protocol?

[@WehrlybirdProductionsWF]

@@Securitybros I turned on onvif in the camera settings like you showed and my reolink is supposed to be onvif compatible.

[@Ginichimaru1010]

Having this exact same problem. Camera connects fine through router but as soon as I plug it in mu hikvision nvr it loses connection and only can see live video through the monitor but not online using the assigned ip adress.

[@WehrlybirdProductionsWF]

@@Ginichimaru1010 I just sent mine back and bought the reolink ptz and had no issues at all. Other than how big and bulky it is compared to this camera.

[@supermike0308]

Hi can I use camhi app for this camera? thanks

[@Securitybros]

No I'm afraid not.

[@Foxfried]

9:55 many strange sounds in your neighborhood.. or is that the camera?

[@Securitybros]

Yes that's frogs I've been told making those sounds.

[@teddyal8770]

Is it auto tracking function?

[@Securitybros]

No not on this one.

[@teddyal8770]

@@Securitybros do you have a similar, but with auto tracking?

[@eliaskpst]

Hey. Can the camera move automatically presets?

[@Securitybros]

No it can't.

[@Jaxxon080]

I could use some help setting it up to be accessed when I'm not at home, anyone here who could help me? Discord/skype/whatever!
