Anyone know of a reputable camera that has the following...

[wantafastz28]

Does anyone know of a affordable camera that I can use outdoor, 1080p or 3mp, poe, nightvision/infared, and has 2 way talk? The two way talk is the road block for me. Not too picky if it is a bullet or dome, hoping to use it for the front entrance of my house.

Thanks in advance!

This is the view I'm trying to cover.

Youll need IR and not sure if two way talk is all there yet unless VOIP, also a lot of those door bell cams you may consider but, i assuem your looking for min specs at 3mp.

I'm just trying to find something that will work with the blueiris software. So far that is the route im looking to go with so i can keep all the cameras in one type of software.

Any reason your set on a 3mp ?

@wantafastz28

First - 2mp will provide a better IR/night image then a 3mp camera.

Second - Ring is garbage in my opinion. I am speaking from personal use experience.

Third - If you want an HIK branded camera with these features as cited above go with the HIK cube (DS-2CD2432F-IW) they have a 1mp, 2mp, and 3mp version. Nelly's also sells a cube camera in 2 and 3mp versions and can be located here: Search results for: 'Cube camera' - Nelly's Security

That camera does not do what the post is requesting at all. You will find that there are no one camera that can do all the different needs out there. But, in a post that requests two way communication that one falls short of the goal line.

I understand that.. he wanted 3mp 1080p two way talk .. in my opinion this camera is better then what he wanted. Also I would never use a camera for two way talk. Just my opinion ...

I'm not stuck on 3mp. My main focus is quality with it still being affordable. I posted up the picture of the walk way in case it would help give you guys a better idea of what I'm working with. I guess my next question and focus is, can i get an instant alert to my phone from this in place of the doorbell. Also I worry that it says indoor use. I'm in AZ, and would hate for this to over heat in the summer, since temps can get up to 115-120F. I'm basically trying to find something that has all the features of a ring doorbell or camera doorbell, but through a blue iris server instead of something with a monthly "subscription."

I do not use Blue Iris, however I believe it does do Instant Notifications (email and possibly text even?) @fenderman can help answer that I'm sure.

You most likely can use an "indoor" camera on that porch as it is fully covered and out of the elements. The main thing like you noted is the heat in your location and these cameras do fall within spec.

Operating Conditions:
| -30 °C ~ 60 °C (-22 °F ~ 140 °F)
Humidity 95% or less (non-condensing)

I had the same idea as you, I wanted the ring doorbell but after living with it for 2 days I returned it. Here is what I did and it still won't give you two talk sorry..

I installed a pir sensor on my porch, so any time their was motion it sent a alert to my phone. Also connected my Amazon echo to this, so when someone is on my porch, the echo says "someone is on your front porch" now it went and installed a hikvision 2342 camera out their so when I got the alert I could see who was out their. To me this option is a lot better then the ring. Now I have a doorbell and you don't even need to push the button to ring it . Also a nice security feature

I also use blue Iris to send me alerts and you will get a lot of false alerts. Rain,snow ect

What Controller are you using to drive this?

Also connected my Amazon echo to this, so when someone is on my porch, the echo says "someone is on your front porch"

The post is a little misleading as it makes it sound like you linked this directly to your echo - yet I believe you need a zwave controller/interface for this device? yes? no?

Your right sorry... I'm using Smartthings..

Yes you need a home automation hub as in Smartthings, or wink

 

[wantafastz28]

Am i forced mounting this camera on the same wall as the door? Or can the camera move while the body is mounted on the adjacent wall of the door?

I would go this route if you already had a home automation hub or if you are thinking of getting into home automation. Sorry I did make this sound misleading,their is tons more effort then what was posted. So if you just want alert to your phone text,push notifications,email ect.

You need a home automation hub with a Zwave pir sensor (listed above) which you will need to weather proof yourself. You willl need a smartphone iOS or android.

I like this idea, but I really like the idea of talking to someone at the door if I'm not at home. Maybe i need to give this "want" up, it def. isn't a need.

It can do instant push notifications to the mobile, email (with photo and/or video clip attachments), text (with photo), etc...

If you setup blue iris properly you will rarely if ever get a false alert...there are a myriad of options including zone crossing that can come in handy..also if you wish you can easily integrate a pir detector with blue iris using an ethernet linked sealevel device.
