Setup a Bit of a Bear

Ok, I don't know why anyone said this was simple, I thought there were too many moving parts. However, Jessica P. at tech support got us all set up, explained options for recording and now we are ready to go. Customer support was very helpful and was not on hold forever.

Setup a little confusing but great imagery

Had to call for support to get everything set up correctly, as there are too many aspects to this. But called in for support, was on hold for about 10 minutes, so not too bad. Carolyn G got me all straightened out with downloads and setup, then explained how to customize things for our needs. So over all, everything is great so far.

Not being able to change

Not being able to change the port to a lower 3 digit number was disappointing. However, the views are much clearer than some other cameras.

Good image quality but disappointed they changed the housing/mount system

I have installed many Amcrest cameras over the past 3 years. I always liked that they were built solid. Metal housings and they lock into place with tools. I recently bought a handful of these which I thought would be just an upgrade of the older IP8M-2599EW but was surprised to find out the mounts are now plastic and the camera now snaps in place on the mounting ring. I will admit it is easier to adjust the camera, but for me they need to be secure. In some install locations with lower ceilings, all someone needs is a small stool and they can reach the camera and adjust it any way they want with no tools, or worse yet, push the button on the mount and remove it. While the old style just used a torx to tighten, the average person passing by does not have one in their pocket. Yes I realize buying a dome style camera somewhat resolves the concern, I feel the turret style has better image quality than the dome.

Turned out to be some pretty good cameras.

By Travis S.

Found them online and bought because of the next day and the cameras we ordered were wrong. They did not come next day as promised, but we were refunded the shipping cost. Cameras were better than others and were less expensive.

Simple Power Over Ethernet Setup
Save your time with a simple setup process that can get you up and running on the Amcrest View mobile app in no time at all. You don't have to be tech savvy to get setup quickly and painlessly. Simply power it on, download the app, scan the QR code, and within just a few taps you're ready to go. Day to day operations are a breeze thanks to the simple interface which allows you to take advantage of the camera's powerful features.

Superior HD 4K (8 Megapixel)
Featuring the latest CMOS progressive scanning image sensor and chipset, the Amcrest ProHD camera soaks in the entire scene, dynamically painting all the vivid colors and rich imagery, pixel by pixel, onto your computer screen or smartphone in full 3840x2160 resolution. No need to strain your eyes, lean in close, or play the guessing game when you have this level of detail.

Cloud Video Storage
High definition recordings and snapshots are only as good as how quickly and easily they can be accessed. Amcrest Cloud was created to ensure that you don't miss anything, no matter where you are. Regardless of how far you are from home, you can login from a computer (PC or Mac) or through the Amcrest Cloud smartphone app to instantly pinpoint your footage through an intelligent timeline on an intuitive interface and play it back in seamless and brilliant 3MP quality. The Amcrest Cloud app also can be configured to send you on-the-go alerts. Live viewing, along with 4 hours of recorded storage is included free. Additional 7-day, 15-day, and 30-day storage plans are available starting at $6 per month.

FTP, MicroSD & NVR Storage
In addition to Amcrest Cloud, the Amcrest ProHD camera can also record to an FTP server, onto your local computer, a MicroSD Card (Up to 128GB, Not Included) or to any Amcrest NVR (Not Included). You'll have full control over your recordings and can manage them however you'd like.

Smart Motion Alerts
The Amcrest View Pro app frees you from having to check in just to find out what's been happening lately. Instead, get immediate push notifications and alarm details sent to your smartphone while you're on the go. Launch straight into the app, choose an event from the Event List, and jump right to the relevant recording or snapshot. Life doesn't wait around, and neither should you.

Advanced Zone Detection
Create distinct motion detection zones to completely customize control over what you're monitoring. This is an effective way to ensure that you only record what you need when its important. Each zone includes its own sensitivity and threshold meters so you can fine-tune it exactly to your liking. Let the Amcrest camera hold its focus so you don't have to lose yours.

Intelligent Timeline Playback
Your stored recordings and pictures are precious, and having that data at hand is the whole point of using a security camera. Whether sharing with friends and family, or presenting evidence in a court case, it is important to be able to immediately identify, track down, playback, and export what you want, when you want it. The Amcrest camera's intuitive searchable timeline will make your life easier, save you time, and act as a sophisticated built-in video player.

Infrared Night Vision
Cutting-edge night vision technology allows you to get a crystal clear picture even when it's dark. This camera has 2 IR LEDs that transmit their infrared rays in a frequency imperceptible to the human eye. The IR lights cast brightly which provides an astounding 164 feet of night vision range. With this powerful feature, you can gain total awareness over the previously unseen and do so in a way that is undetectable.

Wide 110 Degree -40 Degree Viewing Angle
A carefully crafted 2.7mm-12mm lens with a max aperture of F1.4 generates striking visuals owing to the 110 Degree viewing angle. With such a wide field of view you will have no problem keeping what you care about in your sights.

Secure SSL connections via HTTPS
The Amcrest ProHD camera features secure SSL connections via HTTPS to comply with modern WiFi standards for encrypted connections. This way you can always be assured that, as you play your footage, you're also playing it safe.
