It is very easy to operate however it doesn’t save the images. You have to buy a subscription with iCloud which is very costly.
Very good picture quality Compare to other camera I used before in this price range
Picture quality is good as is night vision. I do think the smart mode for night vision is a good idea as it switches on built in led light when motion is detected. You get colour instead of inferred black and white. I am still trying to find out how to delete recordings from installed memory card without formatting.
Let’s me keep an eye on my house while at work, need to have more pixels goes blared when zoomed i
Purchased this camera as an upgrade from one of the cheaper models from Ezviz. Being able to move the camera via the app is a great feature and overall I’m very happy with the purchase. Couple of things to note is that the motion detection seems to pic up everything, states it pics up human shape however activates when anything passes the motion detection such as a falling leaf or rain.
There is a monthly fee of 7.99 to pay for video to be saved on the cloud.
The camera ap is easy to operate , the picture and sound quality is great , highly recommend !
I had the older B&W version, this camera is way better in all departments. Motion detection is accurate, picture quality is really good. And activating was just super easy. So a great all around camera for a very good price. Was very happy as I bought it when on Black Friday sale. So I can highly recommend this camera.
Very happy with this camera. The picture quality is great compared to our older cameras, especially in night vision mode. The tracking is also ver good and can act as a visible deterrent to people up to no good. Woukd recommend
I’ve bought four so far. Bought the first two and easy to install. Great clear vision and motion detection. Can see a wide distance. Bought another for a relative and the fourth one is for us. I would recommend as they are very clear and make you feel safe.
Good camera but the tech specification list of what’s included in the box clearly states a 1x 6 meter extension cable included. Shabby and dishonest. The only reason i went ahead with the purchase ahead of another camera was this inclusion. Half a mind to send it back.
Setting these up is a bit more complex than I found with Blink and it needs a stronger Wi-Fi connection to stay connected.
Still can’t get the detection areas set to work properly but the pictures quality is good. Tracking is a bit hit and miss and there are too many false alarms with waving tree branches being a common cause. Good but NOT great.
Mine is at roof height and motion detection is slow to catch on. Images are very good for the price and the rotation isn’t too slow for a budget cam. I watch it on iPhone iPad and laptop with ease. And the night vision is like daytime camming but in black and white.
Had a bit of a faf to get this installed but once up and running it is very good quality motion detection is very good the alarm is nice and loud and the night vision is superb
I have bought one of these the week before from B &Q and when I saw the price I jumped at the chance to get the same camera for a reduced price. However when I open the product I noticed there wasn’t a extension cable that extended the power connection like the one I had before. Disappointed
To the camera for some reason they seem to attract flies and have noticed they seem to like the device need to investigate further as the flies trip off the camera so possibly need to adjust the settings.
Really like this ezviz C8C CCTV pan and tilt camera. Picture quality is really good, night vision also. I also own another 2 ezviz cameras so wanted to keep the same make to only use 1 app, couldn’t be bothered to have multiple apps. The pan and tilt is fab, you can move it just shy of 360, then have to rotate the opposite way. Has a light function when it detects a person, but there is no light for a permanent fix of staying on. There is no 2 way speaking on this, but you can have sound and hear people. The app features are ok, has many options to do different things, ezviz could also upgrade there app to add different features so it could improve. The only negative I have is the lead wire connection from the camera is not long enough, there is also a UK plug wire that connect together, but the wire from the camera just barely went through my external wall where I had to drill a hole to connect it all up, it is just shy of 1m I think, it could be a little less than this, but I can’t measure anymore as the device is now set up, it’s needs to be at least 1.5m I think would be best. The UK plug side connector is around 2 metres. Overall I like the camera, I’m thinking of buying another for the side of the house.
This camera moves sideways at 352 and moves up and down at 95 plus it gets better with new updates such as motion tracking option and many other great features, definitely the best camera for the price..superb
I bought this camera because it was well reviewed in Computer Active magazine and considered a Best Buy at 140. Following their link to Amazon imagine my delight to find, that not only was it reduced to 108, a voucher was available for ticking a box, for an additional 15% off, so I ended up paying about 91. Bargain!
I also purchased a 128gb memory card to go in it. Don’t try putting a bigger one in despite what the advertising says, as it won’t work.
It was easy to set up having downloaded the instruction manual from the website and the app from the App Store. Linking the app and the camera was a doddle, just point your phone at the squiggly image in the instructions and hey presto, it’s linked. Likewise with the Wi-Fi link, just follow the screen instructions and input your Wi-Fi password and you are there.
I would have given 5 stars but I have deducted one star because of the ridiculously short length of the electrical lead. I mounted the camera on the ceiling of the outside porch and the lead would not even reach the socket 8 feet directly below. So I had to purchase an additional extension lead. Just something I shouldn’t have had to do.
It works well on Wi-Fi so I had no need to cable. Overall, very satisfied and would recommend especially if you can get on this special promotion.
I wish it could have a microphone as well, otherwise is really good.
Excellent camera good app very easy to setup and install i look forward to get my next Ezviz camera for rear and side of property.
Great value for money.
This is a good quality budget camera. Person detection is excellent, and the night vision is the best I’ve seen. Ok so you’re not going to see face details at 50m at night, but at least the camera picks up the slightest movement even at that range, and at night. It even has RTSP capability if you need to connect to your own software/NVR. The only two negatives for me are the ezviz software why do they never make software that works in landscape on a tablet? And also being an outdoor camera the power lead is much too short at only 1.5m. Ok so the connections are standard and you can buy generic 12v DC extension cables, but should be longer. One feature I was surprised at is the ethernet capability if you don’t want wifi. Overall, I would recommend this camera.
Just does what it says on the tin. Cannot complain about any aspect of this equipment except perhaps, as it is external thecleads need to be longer!!
Excellent picture and detection of humans. Night vision is clear and crisp and can be in colour. So good that I got one for a friend. Just need to find out how to use it with my NVR.
This camera does everything you need, good to know that you can move position anytime if needed through the app. Great picture quality day or night. Top quality for a good price. 10/10 from me.
Easy to setup, great picture, wish I didn’t need an app to view the video on PC
This is the second time I’ve purchased an ezviz camera. Purchased this one as an update. It’s been on the wall for a number of months and works well. Picture quality is good. It has the feel of a well made product.
Excellent piece of kit. Well worth the money. Night and day vision and motion detection are very good.
This camera really impress me a lot, amazing quality and really affordable and monthly cloud subscription is also cheap, After my Logi circle2 camera broke down I tried other camera’s, I tried ring camera, reolink, swann and they promise to delivery 1080p quality but not even close than I tried Arlo amazing quality but found out it would need base and monthly subscription costly fortune overall than I tried logi view and it would need the apple tv or homepod as a base too.
Picture quality is good. Just that you was hoping to capture the car reg but it wasn’t good enough also it would be better if it was mains powered instead of the adapter as the length was not long enough.
Based on my experience so far this is a great camera in conjunction with an SD card. It was very easy to install, I used an IP67 waterproof junction box to house the main connectors and then ran a 12v DC extension cable up into my loft. The camera did come with its own extension cable but I used a well reviewed cable from Amazon which was 18M in length and flat to allow me to easily mount to the wall. You can use POE to connect the camera, but I found that the WiFi strength was more than sufficient.
I can’t comment on the cloud storage options as I opted for a 64gb SanDisk Max endurance card instead. This allows up to 30,000 hours of recording and is specifically designed for cctv and dash cams due to the amount of overwriting that usually wears out a standard micro SD card.
Once installed the camera was very easy to configure. There are multiple detection options including zone detection, line crossing, AI vehicle and person detection. There is a colour night vision mode that is incredibly clear, but if you prefer you can change to a standard black and white mode using the built in IR’s. I’ve conducted multiple tests and the detection sensitivity is spot on (this can be adjusted in the app). You get all of the features without having to subscribe, so for me this was a great option. Once a detection has been made an alert comes through on my phone with an image, from there you can click on the playback option to review the video footage. It is also possible to zoom in on the footage and the resolution is sufficient to read number plates, although it is a shame it isn’t 4k resolution but still great. You can then save images or the video on your device if needed.
There are additional options to have sound activate and a speaker to allow you to speak to someone such as a delivery driver. There is also a siren and strobe light, which can be triggered during certain events.
Overall I have been really impressed with this camera. Once installed it looks descreet and for the price it is a great camera for domestic properties. EZVIZ also offer doorbells and internal cameras should you wish to expand further and the app is very intuitive.
Update after 6 months:
After having used this camera at the front of my house for 6 months with on average 10-20 detections a day, I still haven’t used all of the 65GB space on the SD card, so this is a great option alongside the camera.
During this time there have been a couple of firmware updates which have improved stability and so far I continue to be impressed with this camera under all conditions.
I had been waiting for Ezviz to bring out a pan and tilt camera as I didn’t want to get another make as that would mean another app!
The camera looks well made although the bracket is made out of plastic. I don’t think this will be a problem and it makes the unit lighter.
Picture quality is very good and you can zoom by using your fingers on a mobile phone.
There were a couple of annoying things which meant I docked it a star. The first was that you are meant to scan a QR code to get more in depth instructions. When I scanned the code it said that the instructions were not ready yet! This was not a big problem as I knew roughly what I was doing but they should have sorted this out by now.
Secondly, I wish that they would supply a blank cap for the ethernet cable if you are not using it. I attached and ethernet cable and because it had a moulded end it wouldn’t fit properly in the casing.
All in all I am very happy with the camera and would buy it again.
This camera produces very high quality 1080p images which is a primary requirement of any security camera. It has to be connected to a mains supply but does come with a long extension lead to its plug-in 12v power supply so should not be a big issue – however it does mean drilling a hole through to the outside. You also have the option of connecting via a LAN cable direct to your router if located nearby rather than depending on WiFi. Its also worth mentioning that the camera only works on the 2.4Ghz band – not an issue when in use but to set it up you need to make sure your phone is on the same band which may entail splitting the bands on your router onto separate SSIDs. Once set up you can always revert back to a single SSID.
Once installed and set up on the app it has the option to sense Humans, Humans and Vehicles or Motion Detection. I have it set on Humans at mid sensitivity and it works well with notification coming through with a snapshot of what’s detected. The actual recording displays several seconds prior to the detection so you actually see the person approaching from much further away or even before they appear!
However Notifications are a little problematic and seem to depend on either the type of phone or Android version you are on. My Pixel 4a on Android 11 rarely gets immediate notifications when phone is locked and can take up to an hour to be received whereas a very old original Moto G on Android 5.1 gets every one immediately. This is despite ensuring that things like battery optimisation, etc are inhibited for the app. My previous phone a Moto Z on Android 8 also receives delayed notifications. If phones are unlocked the notifications come through immediately. I am currently discussing this issue with their support team.
