    Camera wont boot/power cycling amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28mm

    I've had the amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28mm for 2 years running flawlessly. Suddenly one day it just stopped working. I assumed maybe some sort of power cut/caused the issue but I'm guessing there. (None of my other cameras seemed effected and the POE switch is powered by UPS). I've taken the back...

    Reolink: Deconstruction of a dangerous misleading youtube review "Finding the BEST 4K Security Camera NVR Package (Reolink vs Amcrest vs Swann)"

    I'm so glad I seen this. I actually fail for it and bought the cameras.. I'm returning them this week and hoping I can find a good camera that can pick up in the pitch dark night.

    The better night cam

    Hi @Oohitztommy The 8MP Amcrest model here has a smaller sensor than most of us like for a 8MP camera .. 1/2.7" .. If you need low light image capture, you will need to spend more for a decent option .. otherwise look to get less pixels ..

    The better night cam

    Could someone help me to verify to my understanding about cams with night shot is correct. This first camera Cam 1 5mp is better than Cam 2 8mp at recoding at night right? If i had to pick between the two the cam 1 is the better choice. I know its not the best but trying to stay within a budget...

    Blue Iris Trigger Camera Motion alarm

    That would be an Onvif alert. You would turn off motion detector source for triggers. And make sure on the camera side that it's sending Onvif alerts.

    Blue Iris Trigger Camera Motion alarm

    ...and the event recorded by Blue Iris, and NOT the internal Blue iris motion detection. This way BI doesn't have to crank CPU usage when the camera can trigger a motion alert on its own. I have an Amcrest 8MP PoE outdoor 4K turret camera (IP8M-T2499EW-28MM) and the Kodi nox latest version of Blue

    NVR or not NVR, that is the question?

    ...attached to an NVR system that is connected to a cable modem/router? Instead of going with 4-4MP Cameras (Amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28MM) connected straight to a cable modem/router? Other than cost, I see increase storage available with the NVR system. Are there any pros or cons to going...

    Thoughts on my setup?

    ...capacity. Maybe 2 weeks vs 4 weeks. What are your thoughts? I purchased 3 different cameras to test (IPC-T2431T-AS – 2.8mm, IP8M-T2499EW-28MM, IPC-T2231T-ZS), so I'm not generating a lot of bandwidth yet. Ultimately, I plan on running a total of 11, possibly 12. This should generate about...

    Looking to add Cameras at home.....

    Welcome @chip_ FYI - the Amcrest 8MP camera you posted is a turret model, not a a dome ( those that have a plastic dome on the camera )

    Looking to add Cameras at home.....

    Stay away from the dome style for outdoor use. They will fog up and reflect light. Go with Dahua turret cameras. Amcrest is a rebranded Dahua cam. Check out the cliff notes.... Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Looking to add Cameras at home.....

    ...I have read some of the intro stuff but how about recommendations broken down by price range: $100 $100 - $150 $150 -200 I was thinking more the $100/camera but if it isn't going to get it done correctly sometimes you need to change your budget. How is the Amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28MM as a camera?

    He's not the only YouTube channel with a misunderstanding in cameras, there's intermit.tech, and many more channels out there with a limited scope of understanding on these cameras. You should not be promoting 4K unless you are going to mention when, where, and how to use them. For most...

    Soffit IR Reflection Options - Visor, Paint, Move?

    Where I couldnt avoid it - I angled the camera to avoid as much of the soffit as possible. I also found using black tape (such as gorrila duct tape) on the parts that refelect the worst to help - this dramatically improved image qulaity. obviously, depending on the level of light you have -...

    Soffit IR Reflection Options - Visor, Paint, Move?

    Just purchased two Amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28MM turret cameras and need some kind of way to reduce the IR reflection. They are soffit mounted and are reflecting the IR horribly. I know, I know it's Amcrest and they're rebranded Dahuas. The price was right and it has the Starvis sensor as...

    Need recommendation for $100 camera

    HDW2231 is not a dome. See post #2 & #4. But it doesn't matter what we think. We really have no financial interest in what cameras we recommend, so just buy what you think is best for you.

    Need recommendation for $100 camera

    ...a Dahua HDBW2231R-Z which is a dome camera so far as I can tell. I'm now looking for a Turret camera as has been suggested and I think I found one. What do you guys think of this: IP8M-T2499EW-28MM I found a manufacturer refurbished unit on ebay for under $100. Its metal with an SD card slot.
