    City Camera Install Plan - First Timer

    I agree @wittaj, the shots I posted were more basic stills and slower walking. I did walk quickly up and down the sidewalk a few times at night (9pm) with out of the box settings before disconnecting everything for the evening. The results were slightly less than I had hoped for, but I need to...

    City Camera Install Plan - First Timer

    After considering the advice above (apparently for the past year since I last posted), I finally ordered a 4k-T180, a Reolink POE doorbell and junction boxes to mount my existing 5442T-ZE camera and the 4k-T180.

    Thanks Mike and actran. I was wondering if it is too much overlap between the overview and planter cam positions. Maybe raise the overview more for a true picture of the street to observe then? I was originally thinking the mini bullets would be smaller in width/height and easier to integrate...

    Hey from PA - my newb intro

    Hey All, Greetings from PA! I have been reading and learning on this forum for almost a year, but finally registered and started posting. The intro guides, wiki, detailed camera reviews and sample captures from other systems have all been very helpful. I worked in IT consulting earlier and now...
