desertcart.com : 2MP CCTV Camera HD 1080P 4-in-1
(TVI/AHD/CVI/960H/CVBS) Security Dome Camera, 2.8-12mm Varifocal
Lens Analog Video Surveillance, Wide Angle Viewing Day & Night
Indoor Outdoor Waterproof (White) : Electronics
Review: Best video cam, after testing for weeks, beating all
other cams by far, with zoom/focus - I discovered this dome
surveillance camera because a cheap brand dome wasn't
available....and found this ANPVIZ dome was super, 10 times
better. It was twice the cost of the cheapie, but worked far
better and even has zoom with focus ability. The color
sensitivity came on while the cheapie stayed in IR mode, & with
lousy video definition. I believe now that it will be my main
camera for my 16 cam system. Solid metal with great night
sensitivity. And desertcart gets it to me next day. Real nice.
later....I have multiple cams being tested plugged into my
surveillance system, and observing color restoration and IR
turn-on over days and this camera is stable and real sensitive to
IR and color restoration when it shuts down IR, and it was better
than all the others by far. Cheap ones are pathetic. I think I'm
going to mostly use it for most of the 16 camera locations for
sure. Good cam.
Review: Excellent buy, great picture, great night vision,
outstanding quality of construction - I purchased this analog
camera to suppliment my 20+ cameras around my property because it
has some interesting features. First, an easy to adjust focus.
Most of my other cameras have a fixed focus that can not be
adjusted. This camera has a focus adjustment that is easy to
access. Second, this camera has a manual optical zoom. The zoom
is very powerful, I expected maybe a 3 to 1 zoom, but this is
much much stronger. I first set it up with the zoom adjusted as
far as it could go because the intersection is probably 40 feet
from the camera. I ended up zoomed in on a patch of grass. I then
decided to back it off all the way and turn the screw about a
quarter turn, then played with it slightly till I had the result
I wanted. Because this is an optical zoom, the quality of the
picture does not degrade when you zoom in. I was impressed with
this feature as you might be able to tell from my praising of it.
:-) The camera is bigger and heavier than I expected. I have
other dome cameras that are about half this cameras size and no
where near the quality of construction. The camera itself is
encased in a metal ball. It is very well made and I expect it
will last me many years. Because of the cameras size, weight and
adjustments to zoom and focus you need to make, I suggest the
install be a two person project. I installed this camera by
myself while I was home alone. I really wished I had a second set
of hands while mounting it and I did a lot of adjusting, running
in the house, looking at the results of my adjustments and then
running back out to make more adjustments. Do yourself a favor
and get a buddy to help you. It can be installed by one person,
but two is better. Picture quality, daytime color and night
vision are all excellent. For the price, I don't see you finding
a better dome camera!
