Review: Great PTZ camera! - This is the best camera of the many Amcrest cameras I own. The picture is clear and has great color accuracy. You can switch between night vision and night color but it can't be done in the IPad or IPhone app. The zoom is great, we have many birds and other animals that we like to zoom in on and get great video and pics. The birds don't seem to get scared away by the camera movement so you can get a great super close-up pic or video of them. The installation was easy to do because it was replacing an existing PTZ camera. This camera is hard wired Ethernet, I prefer it that way since I can also power it through the Ethernet using POE. In this particular case, the camera is also pretty close to an outlet so I ran the power to it to take the load off the POE switch. I just don't like the idea of using wifi to connect to a camera. If I had to do that, I would use another wifi router and isolate the camera network. I use NVR's to store my camera footage and like to run thing 24 X 7 so I can go back to any point in time and see what happened. Not every event is triggered by motion. There have been many times someone just walked by on the sidewalk and a motion event was not triggered. I could increase the sensitivity but then I would have a lot of events to weed through. It would be nice if Amcrest added the ability to switch the camera to night vision or color on the fly in their mobile app. I have both of their mobile Pro versions, neither will actually work to set this feature. The night vision button indicates it is switching night vision off, but the camera is still using black and white? How about "Night Vision On", "Night Vision Off", "Color Night Vision On" as three choices in the app when you press the Night Vision button. Also the LED's need to be turned on and off separately as well. The app just says "This feature is not supported". Really, an Amcrest camera connected to an Amcrest NVR talking to an Amcrest IOS app can't turn LED's on and off? Overall though, it's a good camera and I hope it will last longer than the others. I will update this review as I go along.
Review: AVOID. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT OF AUTO-TRACKING and several other features. - This camera is a scam. The AI is a joke and what Amcrest calls Auto-tracking is not even real. It WILL not follow a detection out of frame using PTZ. Fradulant packaging and advertisement. Very disappointing. Setup was complicated. Compatibility with NVR systems is extremely basic, everything has to be on the camera UI. Zoom is strong and resolution is good, but how hard is it to make a 8MP PTZ camera with a strong optical zoom nowadays. True auto-tracking firmware is not available for the camera as the on-board chip is not capable of it. There are cameras for half the price that have an actual excellent AI auto-track chip. I really hoped the camera would light the way of a person walking at night. The is no mic input, but it does have speak out put. Not worth the feature set at this price, at all.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Way Underrated
*by J***S on August 22, 2025*

I have no idea why these reviews are so low. Maybe people do not know how to use or configure it. This camera is fantastic. The image quality when you select main stream in 4K is amazing. The zoom is fantastic, and it has a ton of features: AI, Auto Pan, Instant Move to location selection, it even defrosts the lens in snow/ice for you.
