FCD600 PoE Security Camera Outdoor with Dual Lens 180° Filed of View, 6MP IP Surveillance Camera Support Color Night Vision, Person/Vehicle Detection, Two-Way Talk, Built-in SD Card Slot

I got the 3k analog system from Annke because of the price 250 for 4 cameras and 2tb DVR. I'm not very happy with it. Very slow 12 frames per second makes it look choppy and just not clear enough. I ordered this because it is compatible with my DVR system if I connect it to my internet. I wish i could have got the 8mp or maybe they have even better quality, but this one is advertised to work with the DVR I got. It's supposed to connect and work with your router and a 12v wire included with my other camera set, but in fact it does not provide enough power because camera shuts down when it needs extra juice to run at night. Luckily i have a switchboard, and that is giving it enough power to run. It shows up on my DVR and I have access to DVR from my phone. I love this camera otherwise. It shows a clear image and 20fps for a smooth experience. Unbelievable viewing angle. I chose this bullet style because it does not stand out. I dont need my neighbors knowing i can see every time they step outside lol. Event zones work very well so I don't get notified when cars drive past my house or neighbor steps out. Only when someone approaches yard or driveway. Very good night vision. I keep my driveway lights on so I can see in color. I might decide to return my 3k lite system.

Have been changing out my cameras around my house to Annke brand cameras as they have some amazing picture quality. Upgraded a camera on my house to this new Annke 180 degree camera. The new camera takes the place of two cameras I had to cover one side of my house. Day time the picture is amazing as is the sound quality! Night time is just as great! Can see everything I need to see without any problems. Sound quality is amazing as well. Picks up a good amount of sound. Definitely enjoy the features of the camera like line crossing and human detection. Easy setup when you log in through the IP address. Lots of settings and stuff tha can be customized to your needs. The design fits in great with our house, the nice design doesn’t stand out. For the price of the camera I’ll definitely pick up another and suggest this to friends and family

So far I have been very pleased with this camera. I had to replace an older Hikvision and the performance of this camera has been much better (the Hikvision was 8 years older though). I like the wide angle viewing so i can see much more area. Quality does not seem to be diminished with the wide angle. Nighttime viewing in IR mode is much better than the previous camera I had. The ambient light around seems to make it work much better in this mode than in the night time color mode. It does loose a star because it is a plastic housing. I wish it had a metal housing for the exterior use. Additionally, the cable design is a little poor for ceiling mounting as it snags on the housing frame and you have to bend the cable to make it work. I am sure there are probably settings I could change to make it even better, but it works well enough for my use.

I now have an extra camera, because this one is replacing the original. I've attached four photos - two of the new camera, showing the 180 degree view (which is really great, better than the original "regular" camera) and one of the regular cameras, both have night and day shots. First off, this is the only camera I've had that shows color at night. Pretty cool. It also has a mini spotlight (which you can turn off) - it doesn't extend very far, so it's not doing much, but it's cool. The quality is much better then the original cameras, which are 8X 5MP. You can see how it's much more defined at night. The daytime shots seem to be closer in quality, but I found that when you focus in, this camera is better. See the gray car parked in front? With the old camera, you couldn't read the license plate. I don't have a shot of it, but you CAN read it with this picture. That matters, as some thief parked across the street earlier this year and stole something from the landscaper we hired to mow our lawn while we were out of town. I couldn't get his license plate, though the car was clearly visible. If it happened now, I'd be able to make out at least some of the letters. Now the really important part - the company itself. I purchased the whole setup in June 2021, with the NVR model N48PBB. From the start, it was nothing but problems - the desktop program couldn't connect, nor could the app. But their tech support stuck with me, even remoting in, and we finally got it all working (and I'm a Microsoft Certified System Engineer and a Cisco Certified Network Associate - I actually know what I'm doing most of the time.) But this camera didn't work with my NVR, and the N48PBB couldn't get a firmware upgrade to fix that. I was furious. Less than two years old, and it couldn't work with THEIR camera? They told me to send back the NVR, they reimbursed me for the postage - no small thing, it was $65! They rushed me a new NVR, a later model. I plugged it all in and - It just worked. Right away. No problems, all the cameras came on, no delving into the guts except to turn on the remote access so the phone app could find it. The whole thing took, maybe, 15 minutes. They stood behind their products, they went out of their way to make sure I was happy, and they put plenty of time in tech support when I wasn't. This is a good company. They did the right thing, they want their customers to recommend their products, and I appreciate that way of doing business. Plus - this camera is REALLY good. If you need to cover the whole block with just one camera, this is what you want.
