IPC-FE541-AS

The media could not be loaded. I finally broke down and paid real money for a real quality IP Camera. I am very happy that Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome were supported as login/Admin/setup browsers. I plugged the camera into my POE switch and used an AMcrest IP config tool ( free download) to locate the IP address of the camera. I followed the camera setup prompts to create a password, and hit next a couple of times and was in. I made the mistake of buying 2 other camera's that are fussy about recording and triggering in Blue Iris that use outdated Internet Explorer 11 and require an Active x plug in. That prompt is so annoying. I need reliable hardware and software. I manage a 3 story Condo, and we need eyes at the elevator doors upstairs on 3 levels. The ceiling is low and I didn't want a camera somebody could grab and turn easily. The Smoke detectors in the building look similar so I thought this one would blend in on the ceiling. I have enough other cameras to get a good look at a person. I just can't see where they go once they get on the elevator. I bought 1 Camera to see how the setup would go. It was the easiest camera to set up out of the 16 I have installed here. I will be buying at least 3 more. ( 11/14/2020) now running 4 of these. They have proven to be a behavior deterrent in the garage, and a great tool to see where people went after they got on the elevator.

This is a very nice camera. I have one in one of our outbuildings powered through a POE switch and it works great. Good video day and night. The only complaint I have is that Blue Iris can't de-warp so I have to use another app to display the de-warp view.
