REOLINK5MP PoE Security Camera, Surveillance Outdoor Indoor for home, Person/Vehicle/Pet Detection, Time-Lapse, Work with Smart Home, 100ft IR Night Vision, Support 256GB SD Card, RLC-520A(Pack of 2)

These are top notch Camera's, quick to install, easy to use and the Phone App has very useful features which allow you to review a full days video recording in a few minutes. For example the App's S/W allows you to view and filter certain types of motion such as, Persons, Vehicles, Animals or Any Motion. This makes it so useful and saves a huge amount of time when reviewing the videos. In addition I also purchased the ReoLink Door Bell Cam which is great as well. I am sticking with ReoLink ! ReoLink deserves 5 stars !

I ran cat 6 to my chicken coop and installed these two guys in there and they work great despite the harsh environment, been over a year with no issues. Reolink is a solid product

Good camera to connect to Reolink NVR. Love it.

I purchase 4 of these because I already had two RLC-520's and they worked great. My 3rd party NVR found the IP cameras and setup was easy. On the RLC-520a's however, my NVR could not find the cameras. They worked great in the ReoLink Android App both on premise and remotely so I knew it was not a network issue. I had an idea what the problem was, but I could not find what I was looking for in the App. Once I downloaded the ReoLink Windows App I was able to dive a little deeper into the setting and found out where to enable ONVIF. Once ONVIF was enabled, my NVR found the cameras immediately and I could add them to my other IP cameras and analog cameras. I don't know if the fact that ONVIF is disabled is mentioned anywhere in the ReoLink literature or website but I hope this review helps someone who might experience the same thing that I did.

pro quality at a reasonable price

Really like these cameras, I keep adding more

Why did you pick this product vs others?:no me funciono

Update: After 3 weeks I have decided these are going back. The AI detection is flawed and not great but better than none, (maybe) but the audio / sound / microphone quality is dreadful. It seems to have gotten worse by the week. The audio quality went from barely usable to unacceptable. I will be returning the two of this model I bought and the PTZ 823A camera because of these audio issues. I am also starting to see complaints on other Reolink models for sound / mic issues in my search for replacements cameras as well . Seems they may have gotten a bad batch of microphones or more problematic they may have switched to something cheaper that is not working right to save some money. Whatever the case may be we can assume the ratings of Reolink cameras are going to take a hit until it is fixed.I figured I was just having real bad luck with three of three cameras going bad in spite of it being two models but the other complaints tell me I am not alone. In the 823A model I think it could be related to design and have been there all along because while mine is worse than some online reviews there was still a quality change from these dome style cameras.Original: Disappointing compared to their previous model without the AI. Bad microphone / sound quality.I had bought 8 of the RLC-520 cameras and have had pretty good luck with those, my biggest gripe with those was QC. some had dust on inside of lens that cannot be removed that left ghosts at night using infrared. This has gotten worse over time, the pictures in IR mode have become more foggy as we go. However the microphones sound pick up was exceptional. I expected the same from these which were that earlier camera with added AI, or so I thought. They still have the IR image issues but the sound on the two I got is barely there, the others could pick up whispers at the neighbors house, these can barely pick up a conversation under them and yelling at the neighbors house (which isn't too far away). The AI addition was not worth the loss of the ability to hear conversations. Its nowhere near as bad as the underwater, water running, pipe echo sound the RLC-830A - 4K PTZ PoE I bought with these produces but still not good at all.I am hoping I just got a bad pair.
