Hi I am hoping for some help. I am currently switching away from the ring doorbell and floodlight cam.

I have successfully installed the reolink POE doorbell that I am very happy with.

The flood light camera replacement on the other hand is disappointing.

I have replaced it with a full colour POE ip camera that has a 2.8mm lens. It just doesn't compare field of view wise. I enclose a screen shot of both to compare.

Is there a POE full colour camera with a comparable field of view? Or atleast some lens spec to look out for?

Thanks
Paul

Hi thanks for the suggestions. I am just as concerned by the height of the view. I.e you can see all of.my garden with the ring cam. I hope I am not going to be out done by ring.....

What is your goal with that camera?
Do you just want to see that something happened, or do you expect to get a Face ID?

The main goal was to view the garden with motion alerts. I will also have a full colour camera above each door for better id quality
