Description

With the 5MP camera, you have a resolution of 2560×1920 which gives a 4:3 aspect ratio, so more square the wider the 16:9 that 3840×2160 offers. You can, of course, manually change the resolution to 2560×1440. The biggest issue I have, which all of them do, is certain objects will trigger false positives. The clothes drying on the washing line in windy weather is a particularly bad trigger for all my cameras. Price and Alternatives In my academic pursuits, I earned a BSc in Information Systems Design from UCLAN, before advancing my learning with a Master’s Degree in Computing. This advanced study also included Cisco CCNA accreditation, further demonstrating my commitment to understanding and staying ahead of the technology curve. Then, if you want to reduce the CPU load, you can use /h264Preview_01_sub or /h265Preview_01_sub under the sub-stream settings which will be used for the motion alerts. Blue Iris Settings (you can set up different none admin users within the camera) You can change the ports if needed

The web interface has been updated from the other cameras I have reviewed. In particular, the live feed now works in Chrome natively without having to mess around with flash. As a fitness fanatic who loves running and cycling, I also have a keen interest in fitness-related technology, and I take every opportunity to cover this niche on my blog. My diverse interests allow me to bring a unique perspective to tech blogging, merging lifestyle, fitness, and the latest tech trends. You then set the camera to record over a specific period of time, so for the next hour, for example. You can also have it record things like sunset and sunrise. PerformanceI am James, a UK-based tech enthusiast and the creative mind behind Mighty Gadget, which I’ve proudly run since 2007. Passionate about all things technology, my expertise spans from computers and networking, to mobile, wearables, and smart home devices. Overall, these are superb little cameras with decent image quality for the price and flexible recording options. The object detection works well, I would say it is maybe not quite as accurate as Eufy or Sentry AI (with Blue Iris), but it is close. Viewing the clips can be slow, sometimes loading it is instantaneous, other times it just hangs for a while. Oddly, by default, the 4K model was set to 2304×1296 for the resolution. To achieve this resolution it actually crops the shot, which in turn changes the overall field of view considerably, being much narrower than I had expected.

For this review, I used some microSD cards as well as Blue Iris. I have not used a Reolink NVR so can’t comment on what the experience with that is like.

Person/Vehicle Detection: Smarter 24/7 Protection

If you want to review some specific footage, and have identified roughly the time you want to look at, this is the best method in my opinion. App For recording, you can filter by any motion, person and vehicle which therefore significantly reduces the clips you need to work through if you want to find something. If you root around the camera settings enough, I think it had all the settings that are available via the web version. The quality of the video for both cameras has been excellent for my needs and based on the price of the cameras. My neighbours already think I am weird with the number of cameras I have installed on the house, with my reviewing two cameras at once, I had to locate them in different places. So side by side comparisons is not as easy.

The two models are the RLK8-510B4-A and RLK8-810B4-A. These are 8-channel NVRs with the 510B4 being designed for 5MP while the 810B4 can handle 4K. They both come with a 2TB HDD built-in. If you are using Blue Iris or other homemade NVR solutions, many of these offer advanced object detection which bypasses the features on the cameras. I personally use Sentry AI on my server. Overall

The RLC-510A which is facing into the street actually stays in colour most of the night, we have quite strong bright lights, but the sensor does seem to offer better low light performance than other affordable cameras I have used. With the 4K camera, I am getting a lower quality feed from the camera, I am currently trying to work out if this is an issue with Blue Iris or the Reolink camera not supplying the full resolution stream.
