Pros & Cons
Pros
The camera has a storage space for a microsd card (up to 256gb) this allows for local storage and so there is no subscription required. It comes ready to setup giving it an edge plugging into cross-compatible nvrs or streaming h. Gb microsd card.
The zoom is a massive 5x optical, which is outstanding. Unlike a phone's digital zoom that can become pixelated, this optical zoom keeps the image crisp and clear.
The build quality is excellent and optics are phenomena. Quality of the camera is off the charts! Still, it’s a solid pick for anyone wanting reliable security.
Reolink rlc-823s1 4k uhd ptz outdoor security camera is the first one by poe. The power over ethernet (poe) feature makes installation easier since it uses a single cable for both power and data.
