There are also some nice new PTZ cams around the perimeter. Is there anyway to have the PTZ turn toward the zone where the motion was detected from the ring...

    PTZ zoom / focus mechanism

    How do the PTZ cameras maintain such crisp focus while zooming? They don't use parfocal lens right? So are they continuously updating the focus motor as they zoom?

    TP-Link is innovating better than Hik/Dahua?

    As the name suggests, TP-Link is stepping up their game in terms of what their cameras are capable of.
