Pros:
- Inexpensive
- PoE
- Decent picture
- Decent IR for interior use
- Sync's well with Blue Iris
- Pan/Tilt
- Mounting accessories are included
- Plastic construction feels kind of cheap
- Audio output over onboard speakers is garbled (may be a setting that needs to be adjusted)
- Audio input doesn't pick up conversations well (may be a setting that needs to be adjusted)
