PTZ Security Camera System 4K, IP PoE 360 Camera with Dual-Lens, Auto 6X Hybrid Zoomed Tracking, 355 Pan & 90 Tilt, Outdoor Surveillance, AI Detection, TrackMix PoE

I purchased this camera based on Youtube reviews as a complement to my Reolink RLC-823S2 and I am happy to say that I am more than satisfied with it. The dual lens configuration is phenomenal and the auto tracking is quite responsive. The image quality from both lenses is excellent providing clear and stable views. The build quality is quite good and installation is fairly straight forward. I do wish it had the patrol feature which the RLC-823S2 has but for my purposes it is not essential. I highly recommend this product.

I bought what I think is the first version of this camera several years back. Because of the good experience I had with this one, I recently replaced a failing camera with this one a few weeks ago, and got what looks like a newer updated version since it has been a few years since I bought this originally. I can say that because of the quality of this upgraded version, I then replaced the original with a new one of these too (so I now have two of these new ones within the last week or two). The firmware is far better, no lagging video over ONVIF, and night performance is fantastic even with the IR illuminator turned off. I don't know what Reolink did, but they did it right. I highly recommend this camera even if you don't use the tracking features, just being able to pan around and zoom is enough to make this a worthwhile purchase. Panning is FAST when you need it to be, and can be fine controlled (I use it with SecuritySpy), and image quality is excellent. What more can I say?

Really love that it has PTZ and auto tracking all in one affordable package. Those features work pretty well, especially for a consumer-level device. I wish it had greater light sensitivity in near-dark conditions like other cameras on the market because the LED lights are too much to be turning on very bright at night in front of my house. Still, it works fairly well to leave it in color mode even when that LED is off because it does have decent light sensitivity, just not great. The motion detection is where I am going to need to spend more time trying to fine tune because as it is it's firing constantly, even when there's nothing that I can see in frame that is moving (other than maybe leaves in the trees moving ever so little?). The secondary stream for the zoom feature is pretty slick. I haven't found it to be super useful yet because it doesn't seem to want to center itself on whatever it's tracking, so I don't really find it showing me the face of the person in the yard for example. I suspect this might be just a setting problem but it doesn't work great out of the box. However, the wider FOV stream is high quality so you can make out faces on that stream just fine. EDIT: I see that I can reduce the sensitivity of the motion detection to reduce the false positives, which is helping (I still need to tweak more). I also found that changing the "tracking method" to "pan/tilt tracking first" does the trick to make it so the secondary zoom camera is focused on the target. It's actually pretty amazing -- just now I watched it figure out that there was someone walking down the sidewalk across the street from me, it automatically moved to center both cameras on that person, zoomed in to see them fairly closely with the secondary camera while keeping the main camera at the full FOV, and automatically continued to move to keep them in frame. I feel like this will be very helpful in case there's something wonky going on in front of my house now.

Camera works great, only real complaint is you can hear it moving from inside the house on other side of same wall and how sensitiveit is at night with bugs. Plus side is you know it's tracking something before you get the notification. Notifications are quick, within a few seconds. POE is much better than wifi any day. This one is not connected to the home hub but I did test it and had no issues. For POE you can use any POE+ rated switch on your network and the app will detect the cameras immediately. Im running a 256mb sandisk extreme or better (high endurance or max endurance) cards even if connected to home hub or a soon to be NVR. The hybrid zoom works decent but doesn't replace a good optical zoom. The hybrid zoom is more clear than trying to zoom in on the fixed lens. It has a sensitivity schedule you can set to be less sensitive at say night than day time. At night I had to drop mine down to 20 out of 50 (max setting) to get it to stop detecting flying bugs. Still testing those settings but it is pretty sensitive even in day time but will pick up and track a vehicle 150 ft away especially if you set one of the viewpoints to zoomed in on say a driveway Entrance. You can set preset points to simply click on and have the camera move to your preset monitor points and yes they can be zoomed in fully on the zoom lens or only partially so thats a nice feature. Overall a big upgrade over the wyze pan cams but could use some better AI detection when it comes to bugs and heavy fog (main reason i docked one star) or objects like a parked car. It won't say vehicle detected but it will motion mark it even if just looking at it sitting still if something else moves in the picture. This thing is much bigger than a wyze pan cam and well built. I used Reolink's corner bracket on this as well and it is sturdy and allows the camera to look down two sides of house so I highly recommend corner mounting it if possible. You may still want a fixed camera looking one direction as the camera cant look both ways just nice to be able to rotate it 270 degrees or allow it to track a moving object 270 degrees as well vs one side of house only.

Reolink Trackmix POE Review: A Homeowner's Perspective As a homeowner, I've been increasingly concerned about protecting my property. Tired of the limitations and ongoing costs of cloud subscription-based security cameras, I decided to explore other options. That's when I discovered the Reolink Trackmix POE, and I'm incredibly impressed with it. Easy Installation for a Non-Techy Person One of my biggest worries was the installation process. I'm not a security camera professional by any means, and the thought of complex wiring and setup was daunting. However, the Reolink Trackmix POE was surprisingly easy to install. The Power over Ethernet (POE) functionality was a game-changer, as it allowed me to run both power and data through a single cable. This simplified the setup process significantly, and I had the camera up and running in no time. Amazing Camera Functionality The camera's functionality is truly amazing. The image quality is crystal clear, providing detailed footage that leaves nothing to the imagination. The dual-lens system, with its wide-angle and telephoto views, is a standout feature. It allows me to monitor a broad area while also capturing close-up details when needed. The smart detection features, including person, vehicle, and pet detection, have also been incredibly accurate, minimizing false alarms and ensuring that I only receive relevant notifications. PTZ is a Game-Changer The pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) capabilities of the Reolink Trackmix POE are fantastic. The ability to remotely control the camera's movement and zoom is incredibly useful for getting a better view of specific areas or tracking movement. It gives me a sense of control and allows me to actively monitor my property. Goodbye, Cloud Subscriptions! I'm thrilled to finally break free from the burden of cloud storage subscriptions. The Reolink Trackmix POE supports local storage options, such as microSD cards and NVRs, which not only saves me money but also gives me more control over my data. Overall, a Great Choice Overall, the Reolink Trackmix POE is an excellent security camera for homeowners like me who want a reliable, feature-rich, and easy-to-use solution without the hassle of cloud subscriptions. The easy installation, amazing camera functionality, and impressive PTZ features make it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to enhance their home security. I highly recommend this camera.

I installed the 2 of the Powered/Wifi versions of this same camera 2 years ago albeit this one is purely POE, so no battery or WiFi options. That's fine because those are the biggest sources of camera complaints. The actual camera & options are identical. It took me half the day to run the 100' wire and complete the mounting but that's mostly my many homeowner mistakes - should have used plastic wire hangers rather than powered staple gun. Also should have used shielded wire - cheap wire kinks too easily. On to the camera. Pros: - The PC app has a great multi-camera view. Note that wired connections are suggested since it live-streams from all cameras, which could overwhelm WiFi. - Dual camera setup is no hype. The 2nd camera's 6x optical zoom, that's automatic, really does help recognize figures that it's tracking. -Very clear image. - Lots of setup options. - Allows for "always record". Even with 2 cameras, it holds recording for several days. The Viewing filters allow me to find the activations by type (person, car, animal, other). If I want to see what happened between those activations, I can. Very helpful for times when it didn't activate. With this option on, I know FOR SURE that I won't miss recording a critical moment. It may not track how I'd want, but that's where having 2 cameras come in because the wider one will is about a 110 degree view, which is usually enough. - Allows for IR to always be on so that it detects everything, then the light comes on for activations. This helps for a better image, as well as for letting the subject know they've been noticed. Having the light track them, even better! Cons: - Physical tracking causes it to blur for half a second every time it moves, which is maybe 6 times just tracking someone walking for 20 feet. It re-focuses and re-sets it's exposure. - Older low-tech exposure tech. Doesn't do advanced exposure manipulation you'd need to have any hope of license plate recognition at night. - All ReoLink cameras only support 256GB, even though Amazon description may exaggerate and say 512GB on some. - Lighting options could be more robust. - The IR recording is very grainy. I've had IR capable cameras that are like a black-n-white moving in near total darkness.

First off, I've been installing cameras since they were all black and white. I have mixed feelings about Reolink. Price wise, they are cheap. And unfortunately , you get what you pay for. So, this trackmix. The picture quality when compared to other brands 4k is acceptable but not great. The dual lens feature works as long as your jot trying to see something that is more than 30 feet away.the second (zoom) lens quality is no better yhan if you simply took the main image and magnified it digitally. I mounted mine 20 feet off the ground and 20 feet from the sidewalk that runs adjacent to my home and it's disapointing. Some background. I have 6 outdoor Reolink cameras and there are a few warnings that you just know. #1 They are not UV stabilized and start turning yellow within a few months. #2 image quality is poorer than other brands (except for the poe3 wide 4k model) Even on the reolink 12k model it's ok at best. #3 You MUST record the camera onto an NVR i use ubiquity as my primary recorder and have a Lorex nvr record as a secondary backup unit. Why? Because if you depend on the cameras internal card to save video IT WILL LET YOU DOWN! I can't tell you how many times i have checked the app for an event only to find that the camera did mot record it! (I generally look at the app first, get the time, and then find the event on my NVR. #4 The built in white LEDS are annoying. I like them another but they are terrible. Either they continuously turn on due to rain or flying insects or they just don't see a person and don't turn on at all, they are completly unreliable. Settings are frustrating. If you crank sensitively to max you get false alarms and the lights keep turning on bothering neighbors or you turn it down a little and it doesn't record events. Lastly people detection works very poorly at might. Doesn't matter if the camera is in night IR mode or mot. It's almost October here. I'm not going to take this down this year but come spring time this is coming down. 3 pictures First shows poor quality in clear mode person is 30 feet directly in front of camera and it looks like a 1080p camera. #2 Reolink states no lag, not true zoom camera is 3 seconds behind main lens #3 shows overall quality with larger image.

I purchased this security camera and it truly exceeded my expectations. The image quality is clear, even at night thanks to its night vision, and the coverage angle allows me to monitor the entire room without blind spots. Installation was quick and easy, both for mounting and connecting to the app, which works reliably with real-time alerts. The price-to-quality ratio is excellent: for what I paid, I got a reliable device with sturdy materials and full features like motion detection and instant notifications. The Wi-Fi connectivity is stable, and the camera responds quickly to commands from my phone. In summary, I am very satisfied. I recommend it 1000% 😅😅, I absolutely love it! It’s totally worth the investment for home or office security.
