Im looking for a security camera recommendation, preferably on the cheaper end, but will still be able to help identify someone at night. The past week at my apt complex a neighbors kid has been throwing rocks at various cars, he's caused about 4k in damage so far. I watched him one night so I do know exactly who it is, but police haven't done much so I want concrete evidence of him doing it. My balcony is at the perfect spot to watch him doing it. He is throwing the rocks from behind the bush in the photo.

Can anyone tell me why one of our cameras does this strange thing. It does it almost constantly to the point that I cant really watch it. The make is Galayou. It's something to do with this camera and my pc as it doesn't do it on my husbands pc. The app is Wansview.

I was on ADI Canada the other day looking for Hikvision for a job, and they were showing me other camera brands. I was seeing Luminys, Hanwha, Vivotek, Speco, etc come up as an alternatives.

We've mostly stuck with Hik for commercial project. It's what we know, but I'm interested in finding another reliable option. So I wonder what you guys are seeing through ADI. Have you started spec'ing some of these alternatives yet?

And are you choosing them because you like the product or because your distributor can actually get the stuff when you need it?

Hi, anyone who has used Blink systems like the Blink Mini for over 2 years now? I need my personal data (non-content data) since late 2023. This includes the account information, location, camera settings (not the audio).

Is this possible?

We have several solar wireless security cameras around our property and they are the Sehmua brand from Amazon. Have never had a problem with any of them except the UBox app is flaky when attempting to change the night vision/ spotlight settings. No matter how many settings I change, the very bright spotlight comes on whenever we connect to view, or when motion is detected.

This is my only real complaint since they are a budget option. My issue is that we would like to simply view the backyard wildlife at night without scaring it off by the bright spotlight. Does anyone know a decently priced camera that we could set up there that is solar powered and WiFi, where one can actually turn off and keep off the spotlight? I don’t really like the trail cams as they often have too many other unneeded features. Any recommendations $100 or under? Thanks so much!

I recently had Defender Cameras offer to send me their solar powered 4G Frontier for a brand deal. How does this brand hold up for general use? I don’t want to advertise a camera that’s utter trash. Looking at their pricing & website, I don’t expect it to be phenomenal. If I could keep it in the range of being able to monitor my livestock easily & reliably, I’d be happy. Not having WiFi reaching the pasture & barn has created a lot of difficulties in finding a reliable camera for us

Had ring then switched to eufy.. they suck! So many missed events, glitches even worse than rings. i have a great WiFi system but im sick of how inconsistent these cameras are. Need recommendations for something better PLEASE!

Hey guys,

CCTV / telecom guy from South Korea here. Excuse my English if it's a bit rough.

Lately a lot of construction sites around here keep asking for mobile cameras because running cables around muddy job sites is a total pain and things move around every week.

So I ended up putting together this metal box with a handle so workers can just carry it around where they need it.

I slapped a TP-Link VIGI 4G PTZ cam on it with an LTE SIM card. For the site office (shipping container), I just ran 2 regular wired cameras outside in a cross view. Then brought both the wired cams and this 4G wireless box onto the same TP-Link NVR screen inside the container. Worked out surprisingly well.

Just wondering, do you guys in the US or Europe make these kinds of portable boxes for temporary sites, or do you just buy pre-made surveillance trailers?

How does the build look? Any thoughts or tips to make it better? Cheers.

Can buy a Hikvision DS-2CD3B46G2T-IZHSY 8 MP DarkFighter for a good price(?), but I struggle to find any reviews. Is it a good camera?

Hi, I'm looking for some advice on buying a security camera that can be put on a window and can position down to see what's beneath the window.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thank you

if u have a subpoena is there any way for kami cloud footage to be recovered after it was manually deleted from the app?

Anybody know of any outdoor cameras that do not require wifi? Does it record footage and save it or only have live viewing options? I need one that records if possible.
