Synology TC500 Camera Review - The Best Camera for Surveillance Station?

[@Nerin18]

Does DVA1622 with 4 synology cameras will trigger face detection for earch camera when human is detected? Is it possible with 4 reolink cx410?

Really interesting camera and informative video, but outdoor to indoor cable management is out of discussion in my specific case, this camera would be good indoor for me tho, maybe a bit overkill and pricey. I didn't dig too much yet, but I am looking for 1 external camera with solar recharging, wifi and night vision, to use with a DS920+. what would you suggest? Arlo has cameras like that, but idk how good they would work with a Synology NAS, they kinda have their Arlo ecosystem, app, subscriptions etc. Thnx in advance.

I had quite a lot different ipcams over the years. All running via synology surveillance station. FOSCAM, D-LINK, AXIS, Hikvision and more. Now running only AXIS and Hikvision. The best picture quality is from my Hikvision and they are also much cheaper than e.g. AXIS.

I'm excited by these cameras. NDAA/TAA is a big deal for me. I'm in the process of planning my camera deployment for use on a future farm with multiple buildings and land to be covered. I just got a BC500 as the first camera to test, and I'm very pleased. I'll also be picking up Axis (I have past experience with Axis, and love them) cameras to compare it to. The Synology cameras are way cheaper than I had planned to spend on each camera. Depending on what they come out with next, I can see a mixed deployment of Synology and Axis. For home use, I see no reason not to use these cameras. NDAA/TAA should matter to everyone. I have my current Chinese cameras isolated on a VLAN from the Internet and other VLANs. They only see the NAS. I went cheap because I've been renting, and moving a lot. Once I'm settled, I want something better. For home users with everything on one network with Internet access, I would never recommend a Chinese camera. I'll still keep my NDAA/TAA cameras isolated when I move, but that will be to protect the cameras rather than protect me from my cameras.

Great work! I was wondering about many of the information you covered in the video saving me ton of my time. Thanks!

The weatherproof is kind of cute... weatherproof should mean something else on WINTER CANADA, the operating temperature says -30C and here sometimes we get -40 or more.

Synology cameras are a JOKE. $500 a piece...give me a break.

Do any of the surveillance systems have links to security monitoring companies that can alert police or 3rd parties to take action? If. Not shouldn't synology and other surveillance software firms add this for a full solution? @nascompares
