Amcrest UltraHD 4K (8MP) Outdoor Security POE IP Camera, 3840×2160, 98ft NightVision, 2.8mm Lens, IP67 Weatherproof, IK10 Vandal Resistant Dome, MicroSD Recording, White (IP8M-2493EW)

Amcrest continues to deliver!
I received version 2 (V2) of this camera, which is a good upgrade from version 1, of which I have at least 5 in service. The cable break-out junction is now just POE ethernet and a 12V external power jack. V1 of this same model had alarm contact wires, low level (external amps requiredfor use) microphone and speaker RCA Jack’s, plus the POE ethernet and external 12V power jack. I haven’t used any of those extras from V1 and it just took way more space behind the wall or ceiling to shove them all in. LOVE the simplified breakout cable, even if it does eliminate the “possibility” of adding audio and tamper detection.The base is still metal, includes a sticker template to show alignment holes for predrilling anchors and the large bore hole for the ethernet and power cable.Internals look much the same. If adding an SD card for local capture it sits inside on the lower motherboard. The camera lens can be articulated 360 degrees as well as up and down manually. This is not a PTZ pan/tilt/zoom camera, but with the dome off and the camera mounted, it is very easy to aim the camera lens and get the proper rotation for horizon alignment.The V2 model also has a stylish upgrade for the infared night vision onboard LEDs. This newer model uses 3 high power LEDs concealed behind a glossy decorative ring and looks way more professional than the V1 LEDs soldered to a circuit board mounted around the camera lens. From my observation, this new IR arrangement also helps distribute the IR light more evenly. Comparatively my V1 models with 15 to 20 independent night vision LEDs around the camera lens form more of a spotlight. While this V2 model washes a bit more down and away with a high power IR LED on the left, right and below the camera lens instead of fully surrounding it. The plastic diffuser over the IR LED ring gives the camera a very nice finished, professional look when seen in daylight. When observed in low light, the human eye can see then3 high power IR LEDs glowing a deep red – which meana bugs and spiders can also be attracted to the dome.Setup was a breeze like all the other Amcrest camera’s I’ve dealt with before. I don’t use the Amcrest cloud, so I can’t comment on that, but connection to an Amcrest 4 series NVR was based on IP address, port number, and user credentials – please change the defaults to protect yourself and the Amcrest name – I have a street camera I share with neighbors and it’s amazing to see the failed login attempts from countries all over the world hoping to steal video footage!Overall, I continue to be impressed by the Amcrest brand, at least in the 8MP space where robustness and quality are still packed into each camera at what I believe is a reasonable price point. I’m also a big fan of non-intenet dependency when it comes to security. You can use their cloud based service if you want, but I continue to appreciate that my Amcrest cameras are off-grid and local to my networks unless I want to expose them to public/internet access – bought once with no recurring service agreements and internet connectivity only if desired by me. This may not always be the case, – the Amcrest Smart Home series of devices maintains internet connectivity to leverage their mobile Smart Home App. I’ll continue to buy these dome and turret cameras, keeping my images local to me.

Nice Looking Camera with Lots of Features
The camera looks nice and Amcrest provides great product support. My only disappointment is that image quality of the digital zoom on this camera is not as good as an optical zoom on some of the other cameras sold here on Amazon.The picture looks awesome during the daytime in the sun but as darkness approaches the image quality is not as good (normal of all). If you want to look at something farther away like a license plate it will be distorted and virtually unreadable even with the zoom because it is a digital zoom. The red glow of the camera at night will attract attention to the unit and it is possible to turn it off in the settings but doing so makes the camera virtually useless in the dark.I contacted Amcrest and look forward to the day they offer a 4k with optical zoom although this is not an option right now at any reasonable size or price. I also wished they would change the frequency of the LEDs to those not able to be seen by the naked eye.PROS:- Looks nice- Nice daytime pictures- Digital zoom looks pretty good during full sun- Red glow of the LEDs will surely let people know they are being recorded- Red LEDs can be turned off with software program- Easy to use software program to set up camera- Amcrest has proprietary app to allow you to live view your cameras on your phoneCONS:- Frame rate limits the output of the camera in 4k mode- Night vision suffers and the leds runnig may give a reflected glare on the image- Digital zoom suffers especially at night with poor image quality- Not a fan of the glowing red from the LEDs at night, Amcrest currently has no plan to change frequency to not be seen at this time

To see back yard.
