Dominic

Dominic was a great help for me today. He knew exactly what to do and what to show me and answered all my questions quickly and to the point. It was one of the best and least painful tech support I had with any one so far.

Good camera for the price, but few bad things

The picture of the camera is pretty good, at night it is not bad, but you could see the person clearly at night only couple meters away. For night vision, as it is mentioned by other people, if the camera is placed in front of the glass, then you see reflection. The setup of the camera was not as easy as it is written, so had to play with it a bit. Also for some reason, the camera stopped working/lost connection few times, but now it seems to be working fine, so not sure where the issue was. I have two cameras, one for the front of the house and one for the back, and for the front of the house the camera is sending lot of notifications even though there is noone there or passed by. Of course this can be solved by choosing the detection area, but I think it is due to also bushes moving in the wind. I tried lowering the sensitivity but still the same. Also the camera reacts to insect, so I get lot of notifications of wasps during the day and at night other insect (infra light attracts it). I guess i need to play with sensitivity more. Overall, the camera is good for the price.

Sweet Little Camera

This wireless camera connected to my wifi easier than I expected, worked as advertised in a few minutes. The software is simple to use, the camera is clear and zooms with two fingers on the screen and the audio is clear and easy to use. Could not be more simple and a non-tech person could set this up without a problem.

Amcrest ProHD 960P Review

I am a huge fan of the Amcrest product line and have been an electronics engineer for 35 years. This camera is a paramount addition to my Amcrest System. Easy and very fast setup for anybody. The display and wide angle lens is exceptional for a stationary camera. Will definitely be purchasing more of these in the future.

My Security Cameras and spy on my dog

I had a Amcrest 1080P white tilt/pan camera and I had it in my window to catch the people where i live dumping on our community property. I took down and gave to a friend of mine. I just purchase another White 1080P tilt/pan camera to use to spy on my dog when I am not home WOW you can see what your dog is doing. Then I just purchase the 3 of the Amcrest ProHD Shield Wireless IP Security Camera, 960P. Man these Amcrest ProHD Shield cameras are amazing. What I love about both of these cameras is that they are wireless. Once you get it connected using you wireless router and scan in the bar code you can unplug the network cable from the back of the camera. I ran into problems and Amcrest Tech Support are Awesome and the Tech support gentlemen that i had to help me was Jay he was with me all the way. My 3rd Amcrest ProHD Shield Wireless IP Security Camera, 960P, I am going to take over to my friend house and see if this will work better for her in her living room window vs the 1080P tilt/pan camera. I then I will bring back my 1080P tilt/pan camera.

Feature Rich Camera at Entry Level Price

This camera is just what I was shopping for. It has many configuration options to adapt to any network installation. The external storage options allowed me to save recordings to an inexpensive external hard drive connected to my router. I will be purchasing additional cameras to expand my security monitoring system. Thanks Amcrest.

Awesome Camera Quick setup

I purchased this camera while staying at my vacation rental home in Arizona. It was delivered in 2 days and I was up and running in less than an hour . Setup was easy and I'm getting email notifications as new tenants arrive. It's a great set of eyes in Arizona while I'm back at home in Canada

This is a great little camera for keeping an eye on things while you are away. Setup is very straight forward and it works great with blue iris. The price is really good also. The wide angle lens is great.

Love it, great picture quality and remote viewing of recorded video works great

I have several foscam cameras at my house and followed that team to Amcrest. I needed to install a few more cameras at my aging mother-in-law's house and wanted those that had very wide angle so I can capture the entire room without panning and zooming. This camera does it very well. The 2 way audio works great. Also the software is fantastic. I was able to easily install a 64 GB Micro SD and configure the camera to record video on motion. I use the chrome browser with the amcreat chrome app to view the live video and recorded video. I my iPhone I use both the amcreat app and my ip cam viewer pro app (they both work fine). Only knock is that I can't easily see or get to recorded video on the Amcrest iPhone app. But overall I'm really happy with the camera and since bought another one. I have the 2k version and this one and both are great. I can't tell much of a difference between the two as the picture quality is great on both and the software is the same for both cameras. I also love they both have magnetic bottoms so I was able to just plop them down on a metallic dvd player for one and in the garage I hung it on the garage door rails. So no messing with drilling holes. This works great.
