Great camera for its price
Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera is a very robust and cost saving IP camera. With its 5-Megapixel sensor â delivers a great video feed to any video surveillance platform that supports IP cameras. Also, the camera can be accessed strait from a web browser or with its mobile application.Shipping / Packing:I have received camera in a nice tied shipping package surrounded by shipping foam. Upon the unpacking I was impress with the simplicity of packing. In the shipping packaging I have received the IP camera, instructions, and all the necessary parts.First Glance:Camera housing looks sturdy and after the install I cannot see any esthetical differences from Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera than a $500 one. The camera has a nice sealed small door easy access for micro SD card and its reset button. Also, in the packing is a nice cover for the connecting Ethernet port.Access and Connection:As I mention, the access to the camera is very simple â upon connecting to the LAN â the camera is set to get an automatic public IP and can be reachable by it web interface. Into the intuitive web access interface, the camera setting can be adjusted. The Amcrest cameras are accessible via its mobile application. In my case I used the android version and it was very simple to be installed from the Google Play Store. In not time after the install of the mobile app on my cell â the camera was feeding the app.In my home environment â I also connected the Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera to my Blue Iris Video Surveillance Software â adding the camera was a breeze and the quality of the feed is challenging the other over $500 cameras I have in my home video surveillance system.Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera is capable of standalone recording thru its on board NVR capabilities and the microSD card. With a good capacity microSD card â the camera will record on it all the motions and events trigger by the cam.At my work environment/office â I was able to add the camera to our building Genetec Access Door and Video Surveillance system. This system is the Cadillac/top tier of the commercial video surveillance systems on the market. The camera install was extremely easy â and the vide0 feed delivery was again exceeding most of the $500 cameras we have. The picture quality was way over the 1080p $650 Axis Cameras.Picture Quality:Picture quality is impressive â the 5MP sensor deliver an excellent video quality. The video feed is stable, and its 103-degree side of view is very handy when covering a large area. The picture colors are vibrant, and the cam night vision is covering a large area as well.Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera has also the great WDR â that provide better colors. The fish eye view is looks compress and in the future firmware releases â there should be setting that allows different levels. Camera Security:For more improvement of the security camera â there is a single button that will snap the camera out of its base support. I think in the next releases should be found a better way to secure the camera with its base and upgrade the button to a different secured lock. If camera is mounted within someone reach â it is very easy to be de-mounted from its base.Overall / Recommendations:Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera is a great budget cost camera. Its picture quality is way better that 10 x more expensive cameras on the market.I have the camera in my home system for over two weeks and never had a glitch. Its motion triggers are working as it supposed. The on-board NVR is a great capability for users with no plans to buy additional NVR software. The storage footprint is great thanks to the available video compression H.265.Amcrest 5MP Outdoor camera is an excellent IP POE choice for stand alone or a great addition to your exiting NVR system.After the great results I am getting from this camera â I am thinking to move ahead and test the 4K Amcrest UltraHD 8MP camera with my home and work environments

Awesome Camera! Great value! Tons of options for installation, viewing & recording!
Great camera! Easy Install and setup! Great picture quality! I bought the Amcrest 5MP UltraHD (IP5M-T1179EW-28MM) and I am extremely impressed with the performance of this Amcrest camera considering that it cost less than $50. There was a recent theft in my neighborhood and some kids ringing doorbells and running off at night (frightening my wife when Iâm at work). My existing cameras captured a very poor and brief image of the criminalâs vehicle so I decided it was time to up my game. I really liked how I can use this one camera without committing to a large multiple camera NVR system and installation. There are so many different ways to view the live feed and recordings even when I am out of the house and get an alert/snapshot.Unboxing: My initial impression is that the camera is extremely well built, and it seems quite durable. The plastic housing is hard. The lens angle adjusts easily along multiple axis, and stays exactly where I point it. There are instructions in the box, a mounting template with hardware and plenty of guidance on the Amcrest site. The connections and the cover for the reset and MicroSD card slot are well protected and sealed up tight. I have no concerns about water getting inside.Mounting/Wiring: Even though it can be mounted fine without it, I opted to mount it on an Amcrest AMCPFB203W wall mount bracket. I have brick and new vinyl siding so running a ton of wires with large connectors was not something I wanted to do. I put the connectors inside the wall mount, and connected the mount to a wooden corner bracket I made and stained to blend in with the brick. I then attached it all with one screw/molly. I mounted it near a gutter so I could hide the cable behind and along the downspout. I ran the cable along the foundation under some decorative rocks, into the house near the dryer vent and connected it to my network. I really appreciate the flexibility that the ONVIF/RTSP compatible cameras allows for installation and operation.PoE is AWESOME!: The camera can be connected/powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE) with a PoE injector or switch, or regular Ethernet with a separate power cord. With PoE, I was able drill one tiny hole for the Cat6 cable and then crimp the RJ45 Ethernet connector on myself and have power and data all in one network cable. You shouldnât have to turn your home into Swiss cheese in order to feel safe and secure. PoE allows you to install cameras without destroying your home! I highly suggest getting a crimping tool for anyone running Ethernet cables. The RJ45 connector requires at least a 5/8 inch (16mm) hole. If you can put your own connector on after you run the wire through something, you can drill less than a ¼ inch (6mm) hole. You can get a spool of cable and make your cables any length you want. Since it is always powered with PoE, it can capture recorded video before the motion starts and I don’t have to get on the ladder to change batteries like I do with my other cameras.Setup: The camera can be auto detected by most software. There is also a QR code or serial number (be aware that the QR and S/N are on the tag attached to the cord and not the camera body itself). The Amcrest View Pro software was simple to configure on my android phone. I also tried a demo version of Blue Iris I installed on a Windows 10 PC. It also works with my Synology NAS home cloud server using Surveillance Station software providing tons of capacity for file storage. I was able to set the camera to alert on motion easily. At first, I was getting some motion activated recordings due to wind in the trees and squirrels, but it was simple to set the motion detection to ignore some areas of the frame and minimize false alarms. There are tons of features included in the software that Iâm still trying out.Picture quality: This camera has incredible picture quality for such a low price point. I can zoom in on people walking and driving by without losing much quality at all. My Arlo Pro 2 cameras are only 2MP so this 5MP camera really blows them away with the increased the range, clarity and definition. I usually have some ambient light from the streetlights and the neighbors, but the night vision illuminator lights up dark areas in front of my home for about 100 feet. My spouse was really impressed with how clear the picture is.Audio: The microphone is incredible. I have audio triggered recordings turned off because there is highway noise behind me. Even with the highway noise behind me, the mic can often pick up the voices of people talking as they walk down the street.Flexibility: I really love how versatile this inexpensive camera is. I can put up to a 256GB MicroSD card in it to store the recordings or connect it to my Windows 10 PC, or even to my Synology NAS personal cloud server. I can access the camera through the web, through the Amcrest app on my phone, through Blue Iris or my Synology Surveillance Station software. Iâm also not locked into any proprietary camera system because it is compatible with multiple platforms or no platform at all. All you need is the camera, a way to connect it to your network, and then you can use the app.Overall: I am thrilled with this purchase (I am a computer/electronics/gadget/smart home enthusiast). This camera is absolutely phenomenal especially considering this price point. Iâm already considering where I can place and connect additional cameras. The next time there is a thief in the neighborhood, Iâll be able to pull up a clear image of the people/vehicle when it drives by or be alerted if someone comes near my home. I highly recommend this camera.
