SV3C 4K 36X Zoom PTZ Camera Outdoor, 8MP Dual Band WiFi Security IP Cameras with Floodlight Color Night Vision, Humanoid Vehicle Detection, Auto Tracking,2-way Audio, ONVIF, RTSP,Cloud&SD Card Storage

Coming from IT, so I understood a wide variety of things needed to set this camera up. That said, I’m consistently impressed with the quality and functionality of this SV3C 4K PTZ camera. This is my second purchase from the brand, and I have to say, they’ve truly outdone themselves with this model.The 16x optical zoom combined with the 16x digital zoom provides incredibly sharp and detailed footage, even at significant distances. I tested it in a rural setting where the camera had to capture wildlife approximately 100 yards away, and I could clearly distinguish smaller animals like groundhogs and even birds-this level of detail is usually reserved for much higher-end equipment. The auto-zoom and auto-focus functions are top-notch, making tracking objects a breeze without having to manually adjust anything.Setting up the camera was straightforward. I connected it to my network with Wi-Fi and controlled it via BlueIris. The app is intuitive and easy to use, allowing full control over the camera’s settings and features. The ONVIF support means it’s compatible with a wide range of third-party surveillance software too, which is a huge plus for anyone managing multiple cameras or systems.One of the standout features for me is the humanoid detection and auto-tracking. The camera does an excellent job of recognizing and following a person, and it automatically zooms in to capture detailed footage. I tested this out on a vehicle driving down the road, and the license plate was readable from a distance of over 75 yards. This is the kind of clarity that would be invaluable for security purposes.I also love the robust construction of this camera. It’s solidly built with a cast metal frame and feels very durable. Whether you’re installing it outdoors in harsh weather or in a business setting, you can count on its reliability.Overall, this camera provides professional-grade surveillance with excellent image clarity, zoom capabilities, and advanced features that make it stand out in the market. Whether you’re setting it up for home security or wildlife observation, it delivers outstanding performance. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a high-quality PTZ camera with excellent value for the price.

The media could not be loaded. I have many SV3C cameras but this is one of the best. First all, it is larger than your ordinary camera. It has a metal housing so it can be used in any environment. Setup is a breeze. Just plug it in, open up the CamHiPro App, press the "+" button and your camera appears. Next you will assign your Wifi to it and you are done. I like that it can be assigned to either the 2.4ghz or 5ghz frequency. My 5ghz is much faster than my 2.4ghz. Another feature I like is that you can access the camera on your computer as well as your mobile devices. The 4K (8MP) resolution is amazing and crystal clear. What really stands out though is the 36x zoom (18x optical and 18x digital). Even the zoom is crystal clear. Another feature I use regularly is the "Preset Position". You go to a view and then assign a number to that view. Instead of using the remote controls to go back to that view you just select the number for the view you want and "presto", you are back to that view. Very convenient. Night vision can be seen up to 131ft and is also very clear and there are 3 choices including black & white or color versions. The camera can distinguish between humans, pets, or vehicles for tracking. Tracking is limited to the current view and is done by puting a yellow rectangle around the tracker. I would recommend this camera.

So, I just Got this new cam, SV3C 4K 36X Zoom, 10X Optical Zoom PTZ Camera Outdoor, 8MP Dual Band Wi-Fi Security IP Cameras with Floodlight Color Night Vision, Humanoid Vehicle Detection, Auto Tracking,2-way Audio, ONVIF, RTSP, Cloud & SD Card Storage a couple of days ago. First let me say this is the fourth SV3C outdoor cam I have purchased and have been very pleased with the quality and reliability, study construction and features of their products. I have other brands but for my money SV3C is one of the best out there.This my second try at posting my review due to the clarity of the videos I uploaded! Street addresses and license plates are unintentionally captured and readable and my videos were rejected for that reason. So, I have included a snapshot and video of a mundane object/scene! One is a snapshot from a video that detected someone next door. In the video the cam followed and auto zoomed in on the person driving out of the driveway. I can’t show the whole video due to the fact that identifying information was also captured.This cam was super easy to set up Using their App CamHiPro on my phone. They also have a browser for the PC, Hip2P available on the SV3C website that works well. Only download it from their website. This cam was super easy to set up Using their App CamHiPro on my phone. The app on my phone was very easy to use and has all the settings that you will need to set up and operate any of the SV3C cams and you can have all your cams on the app in one place! The app, or the PC software, has all the settings to turn on and off the humanoid or humanoid and vehicle detection under “presets”.The clarity of this cam is amazing! The 10x optical zoom with auto focus along with the humanoid detection feature is incredible. Once I set up my home viewing area the humanoid detection detects a person, it starts following the person and automatically zooms in capturing great detail of the individual. The auto zoom and auto focus easily captured the license plate on their car about eighty yards away! I would guess that some of the images of people have enough clarity so that facial recognition could be used to identify them in the case of a crime. If I owned a business this cam would be my choice for surveillance because of these features and clarity. One thing I learned was to set my “home” image to a wide enough field to be sure if someone enters it that the camera will then zoom and track them until they are no longer in view and the return to that home image.I use Blue Iris to playback alert clips and for general viewing and exporting of clips when needed. A couple of settings had to be adjusted. My Internet is FIOS 500MB and I am running four cams. I had jerky playback on recorded clips and to solve that I did the following;Go to “RECORD TAB”; Set the “Stream buffer time” higher.Also, you should set up “Sub Streams” and “Direct to Disk Recording” for all the cams on your network. This will reduce the “Overhead” on your computers CPU. I was able to find a lot of information on the Web for issues with Blue Iris. Also under the "RECORD" tab in a sub-menu.While the humanoid detection may be a little quirky occasionally it definitely has a lot of value. In a business setting indoors I believe it would be very stable. The clarity of the images and the optical zoom are worth the price of admission. The quality of construction and the customer support are outstanding!
