Looks good! And I suppose the 90 degree position is not that much of an issue really.

Could maybe the codec make a difference here? Since by the sheer numbers VTO3221D runs out VTO2000A by roughly 50% - so it should be capable of showing more details.Yes INT, you are right. I had the same impression yesterday before uploading the images, the VTO3221D seems a bit out of focus. At my initial comparison in December I clearly liked the image of the VTO3221D more. Perhaps it changes in the dark.
But anyhow both are equally bad if you compare them with a “real” surveillance cam like the HDBW5231R-Z. And even the non-Starvis SD29204T-GN-W is far better.
So a second cam at the door is necessary anyhow.

Personally I'd either leave the door opener module off, or better still use it in addition to your current physical locks. That way you have even higher security. When you come home, you unlock your physical key locks 1st then the door opener. If you have guests coming eg for a BBQ and want to look flashy, then just leave it on door opener alone. It won't matter if you're in the garden to have a lower level of security....and if like many Europeans you have Euro locks as physical locks - get them changed for something secure such as a 3 star Diamond rated anti-snap / anti bump / anti drill solution such as Brisant Ultions or ABS Avocets.- I have security concerns for the door openers (with fingerprint, card reader and opener module), due to the relay being integrated directly in the door station itself (albeit both intercoms have a manipulation switch)

I agree. Out of the 2 I'd choose the VTO2000A every time based on those pictures. Any deficit in night vision is easily alleviated by a good LED security light and sensor at night.Hi @Steff,
is it just me for is that the picture of the VTO3221D-P2 seems a lot more blurry than the one of the VTO2000A - despite the VTO3221D-P2 offering a lot more coverage !?
Especially looking at the green bush. It could be b/c of the instance you took the example.
How would you judge the picture quality comparing both of them in general?
You have written '...more sensitive camera module...' but it did not say that much about the pix quality - even
if that not the most important part for a intercom (it needs to be sufficient and not great necessarly).
Thanks,
INT
@Steff...
Also the bottleneck for the image quality in normal use is the intercom monitor which has usually a resolution of 800x480.
Hey @Steff,@int ,
Yes, I'm still happy. The setup has most of the features I want/need.
The user interface on the VTH feels a bit dated and is a little bit confusing/complicated. The VTO browser accessibility is the usual pain ...
Unfortunately there is no access on the VTH1560CS via browser, changing the settings is only possible via the device itself.
There are still some little quirks, e.g. the VTO2000A requires that user and password are the same phrase and are not too long - othervise it can not be entered in the VTH.
The main feature of the VTO3211D-P2 I need is the notification via iDMSS, this works very reliably.
All in all it's sufficient and I would buy it again.
Hi @Steff,@int ,
I'm not sure but I think the push notification is induced by the VTH.
Do you have a VTH?
I think when I did shut off the VTH I didn't get push notifications anymore.
