VIMTAG Pan/Tilt Outdoor Security Camera, 2.5K 4MP WiFi Home CCTV Camera, 360° View & Motion Tracking, Color Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, AI Detection Alarm, IP66, Cloud & SD Card Storage, Works w/Alexa

This would be a fantastic camera if it would integrate with my Blu Iris security camera software. It has a setting for ONVIF, which I enabled. However, it will only connect for a few seconds. Some research indicates that the RTSP URL changes constantly, which I verified when trying to connect it to the camera software. Otherwise, for the price it's amazing. I mounted it on a pole 50 feet from my house and it is working great through the app. I made sure my 2.4g wifi reached there first... The PTZ and zoom work great and the picture is crisp. If this worked with Blue Iris I would buy more.EDIT: Updated from 3 to 5 stars. Vimtag read my review and offered me a full refund. They wrote me a respectful message and apologized for the issue. They do not currently have a timeline for changing anything concerning security software integration. Fair enough and appreciate the honesty. I declined the refund. For the price it's a fine piece of hardware. I would consider their cameras in the future if they offer full ONVIF compatibility.

I recently purchased the VIMTAG outdoor security camera and I’m very impressed with its performance. The image quality is clear, and the camera provides reliable monitoring day and night. The setup process was simple, and the app is easy to use for checking the camera remotely.I like that it is designed for outdoor use and feels durable against different weather conditions. The motion detection works well, and the alerts help me keep an eye on my property when I’m away.

Have had 3 of these for a few weeks now. Really impressed for the cost. I've had a few other brands that cost a lot more, and none of them had the full feature set like these do.Picture is clear and bright.Set up was quick and easy. Even connected them to my desktop PC using a free ONVIF app.Slapped a 512GB SD card into each of them, got over 2 weeks of archive footage and still not full.Zero connection issues (I have a quality router, not the crap your ISP gave/sold you).Notifications are a bit hit or miss. Sometimes will tag a cat or deer (yes, there are deer roaming around my town). But it can also tag someone who is half a block away walking towards my house.I used an outlet light socket adapter to plug them in. They have a bright light on them already that you can have off, on when they detect something, or on whenever it's dark. No need for more light bulbs. Just make sure you do something to make sure you don't accidentally turn off that light switch 😉.The Canny Cam app is very robust with TONS of options and features. Very nice indeed.All things considered, I can't recommend these enough! Phenomenal cameras! Excellent app. And top notch customer service (I had to ask a question about some settings, they got back to me quickly and with the info I needed). If you're looking for a quality camera that won't break the bank, look no further.Edit: a 512GB SD card holds over 2 months of constant recording. And with the recent updates to the Canny Cam app, you need to re-boot the app occasionally due to connection issues. It's a recent issue. I expect it'll be fixed soon.

On the positive, the image is really good for the price, especially at night, and the camera moves smoothly. Also, their support is excellent: very fast replies with lots of details and good explanations.On the negative, this camera only works with its app, and only when fully connected to the internet. Which means that you are potentially sending your wifi password, data from your network and everything the camera sees to a random server in China. Forget about privacy and security. Cheap cameras like this are a security nightmare, with too many examples of easy hacks to even mention. I haven't really tried to hack into this, to be clear, so I can't say for sure how insecure it is. Just that the odds are pretty good it's not secure.All my cameras are on a separate network, blocked from accessing the internet, and being controlled with ONVIF. In theory, this camera has a setting to enable ONVIF. In reality, it's a completely non standard implementation, with a RTSP stream that changes URL every few seconds and no way to use PTZ functionality with ONVIF. You can't really use it with a standard ONVIF program and, even if you manage to adapt to the ever-changing RTSP URL, any PTZ command you send will move the camera from one end to another (usually pointing to the wall behind the camera). I have half a dozen cheap cameras, all working with ONVIF, and I'm more technical than most. There's really no way to make this work reliably, confirmed by their supportSo, if you want an unsafe camera that uses a proprietary app, this works probably better than many other similarly priced and similarly insecure cameras. And has really good support.If you want security and ONVIF, look elsewhere. I'm returning the camera and getting something else

I love this camera. The easiest camera to setup or link to alexia. Used a 128GB SD chip. Works great. The play back is easy, no ads asking me to subscribe before play back. Just a great camera for the price.

I have been using this camera for a while without the subscription and just the memory card. It works perfectly for me. It was such an easy setup just download the app and connect with your WiFi. The sound quality is clear and you can hear and talk back. Night vision is clear and mine is setup next to a nightlight so I can see color. It does lag at night showing the people coming by but for the price I have no complaints so far.

When I got this camera the mounting was easy and it came with everything. However, when I first plugged it in there were no lights and no sound from it. I tried different plugs and different blocks, still nothing. But when I contacted customer service they were amazing and responded very quickly. After a little troubleshooting it was determined I needed a new camera. The new camera arrived the very next day!! While setting up the new camera I managed to get the other one working and they were so very understanding and a return was discussed. The customer service alone deserves 5 stars!Now to how I like the actual camera:The camera works really good, great alerts, great night vision with and without the spotlight feature! I like the vimtag app. It's simple and pretty easy to use if your able to use an android you can easily navigate this app. IDK how it works on an iphone lol. I have mine mounted outside my office door and it was great to have at 11 pm last night when someone was on my lot. I would definitely recommend giving this camera a try.

This is the most awesome camera. Besides the four k picture quality, it tracks people as they walk in front of the camera. I really like this camera.
