Hep guys, wading through camera waters is pretty tuff. Got a 15 year old Geovision setup and want to go to Blue Iris. Looking for IP outdoor, no sd cards, 4 to 5mp, best IR I can get, and no varifocus. Widest field of view and good frame rate. Whats the best blue Iris you get for +-100 bucks.

Thanks! Let it rain

Avoid reolink like the plague, they are crap and have issues with blue iris...the company also lies flat out to its customers and spams forums.
2mp dahua starlight cameras will be much better in low light...start reading the forum
 
Thanks. I appreciate that! How about the Dahua Starlight H.265 4MP DH-IPC-HFW4431K-I6

I need wall mounts were my existing cables come out.

Thank you!

Bought three of these from Andy. They are incredible. Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret IPC-HDW5231R-Z. Where do I find any firmware updates for these.

thanks!

No shit. Just read the amazon comments...the NVR's a serious fire hazard and they're marketing dept is 100% better than there product. I returned one right away once i found they lied and added a crap hdd instead of surveillance and then support said to plug the NVR in a diff way to not get the sparks! Horrible, cheap crap.

just to echo what other people have said about Reolink - I bought the RLC-411WS-5MP and the RLC-410S and when I had loads of issues goolge brought me here. They are currently working their way back to Amazon returns dept now!!

I can't stress enough how bad these cams were, terrible picture during day, even worst at night, loads of block noise in BI - Learn from my mistake and stay well clear of anything with Reolink on them.
