EVERSECU 2MP Auto-Cruise PTZ Security Camera 20X Optical Zoom HD 4-in-1 TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS Video Surveillance- Pattern Scan, Waterproof, Night Vision, Coaxial Wired High Speed Dome CCTV Camera

I am very surprised by this PTZ camera, which is about 1/3 the size of the one it replaced. Being much smaller than what I had, I didn't expect it to outshine the old one. It Did !!! The description claims it to have a 20X magnification, it turned out the magnification is 36X. The night vision is much sharper and clearer than what I had before, at more than half the cost. This is one is a clear WINNER! Easy to setup, upon initial startup, it automatically found the baud rate required, and installed itself as AHD, which is required for my DVR, another big plus! Very happy with it, it performs flawless, and the color rendition is spot-on. Happy with purchase! Update: March 30, Well I spoke too soon. This PTZ camera does do a very good job during the day, but at night it frequently freezes, stops displaying anything at all. Thinking that it might be the power supply being too small I purchased a 10 AMP supply, which is only 4 feet from the PTZ. No help at all, when it gets dark it shuts off completely. It seems that when it turns on the IR, it goes haywire. Daytime, it works great, very clear, but night time is when I need it most, and that is when it shuts down. Of course, I can't find who the supplier is, in order to get it replaced or to get help. Now, there is NO WAY I can recommend this PTZ camera to anyone! Update April 12, Doing some research I found the problem why it would not work at night. 1) The BNC connector of cable at the camera's end was faulty, the inner conductor was too small for the connector making sporadic contact. Replaced the connector. 2) Power cable could not supply enough power, replaced it with a heavier cable from power supply to camera, placing P/S within 4 feet of camera. 3) Also shortened the video cable (originally 100 ft) by removing app. 12 ft. It works perfect now, not a single hick-up when switching from Daylight to Night time. Night time the display is way better than the camera it replaced even though that one costs 3 times more. Very satisfied with this camera.

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.. The 2mp version is fantastic. Super clear. Highly responsive. It does in fact have a 36x optical zoom, not 20. Switching it to the optimum video mode for your DVR is easy. Just read the instructions, is done via preset command numbers, sent one after another. It ships in the lowest resolution setting for compatibility with older systems. DO PLAN ON USING THE POWER ADAPTER IT COMES WITH. It's 4amps for the 2mp and 5amp for the 5mp. It does need all of that for the impressive IR lighting. A short 14 gauge extension is fine. Get yourself a corner bracket to get the best coverage it of this type of camera. I can look down the street both directions as far as I can see and view most of my yard and zoom to the creek behind my house. Pictures attached of min and max zoom. The Jeep in the picture is moving at about 40 mph. On a side note, I received an open box product. I tested before installing and it worked fine so I don't really have any issue with it, just saying.. Side note, the 5mp camera is NOT compatible with 5mp lite DVRs. Ask me how I know!

Benched the camera and was very impressed with the video quality. The excitement didn't last long as after a few minutes of operation I was no longer able to pan, tilt or zoom the camera. The video feed continued to work but the camera was unresponsive to all commands to move it. Infrared LEDs also subsequently stopped working. Was really hoping to get this working as it's one of the lowest priced 2MP PTZ cameras out there but tech support was not helpful and unit continues to be unresponsive. Thought about an exchange but after reading about all the problems I don't think it would be worth it to try a second unit. In the end I just decided it would be best to just return this to Amazon. Very sad.

I am really impressed with the picture on the camera. When I first received the camera I came to the conclusion that it had been returned by someone. I had read reviews before purchasing and after hooking it up I thought I was going to be returning it. I couldn't get the PTZ to operate when the night vision kicked in. It sort of went nuts when it was dark. Even though it was mounted on the wall in the room I was in I had it connected to a 100' Siamese cable. I sent an email to support and they mentioned the distance of the power supply from the camera. I made a 15' connection and put the power supply on it. It started operating as it is supposed to. It zooms very well and it pans as it is supposed to except for at night if you zoom in and the extra led's kick in it slows down a little. It still moves fast enough. I am pleased with the camera and realize most of the negative comments were probably because the purchaser didn't try to fix any issues they had. The only reason I wouldn't give this camera a 5 star review is because the power supply should have been one for outside use. It is for inside use only and that is pretty much impossible since the power supply needs to be close to the camera.

Its compact size and 2mp lens set this apart from other cameras. The picture quality allows you to digitally increase video to see details (license plates). Although night vision is not as powerful as competitors, it has less reflective interference which produces increased clarity at max zoom. If area is well lit at night, IR can be turned off providing great night vision. My second camera had a focus issue which was easily corrected by calibrating lens.

My wife has been wanting one of these PTZ cameras for awhile but I wasn`t sure if I could install one. I`m glad I made this purchase now. This camera is amazing for the price! The WEB site says it`s 20 power optical but after installing it says it`s 36 power and I believe it. The picture quality is fantastic and the auto focus works very good. For $139.00 I had to order another one with no hesitation . Every now and then I come across a deal and this time I think I did. I had to buy the 100 foot PTZ cable which is a must but did find out that at night that when the infrared LED comes on, the camera would act up. This is believed to be from the factory being only 4 amps at 12 volts so I ordered a 6 amp power supply and will test tomorrow. I still have hopes this will be resolved. Anybody thinking about trying the Cat 6 or 7 cable idea, forget it -it won`t work. I`ve tried all the way down to the 50 foot cable and it will not do what this camera is really capable of. My wife is really impressed with camera and that is good enough for me. The camera will do what it says it will do. My biggest disappointment came when I bought a LEFTEX mini controller for it and it did not work and it did not come with any instructions. I will eventually find the right controller and let you know which on works. After all was done I checked the camera resolution and found it to be 944 by 480 . What gives here because this is not what I ordered.

My first camera was perfect except they sent wrong instructions. It is my best camera. I ordered second one this year and was not working as the first one until I found a review that showed to change settings on camera itself and now it works perfectly without the extra line for the PTZ functions. Still needs to have power close and direct. Here is the review I found (Love the feature of where I no longer have 2 use rs485 wires when using ptz if using camera in AHD via coxial ptz mode bad part was just had 2 get it out of CVBS mode🤦🤣 which manufacturer was happy 2 help with quick reply btw u have 2 use rs485 wires 2 get it out of CVBS... See more) If you’re having problems find the original review it has codes

I purchased this camera due to its quality and camera functions especially the PTZ option. I work away from my home every day and need to check on animals back at home. Im unable to utilize the PTZ function on the camera to scan around my barn from work while viewing it on my app on my phone. I have been able to use this function on my older swann camera system. The PTZ worked well with the app and could control it on my phone from anywhere in the world. It's disappointing this isn't the case with the current app. I have to be standing at home in front of my main control center to use the PTZ

Great picture..Easy to set up...

My 1080p DVR says it’s a 960 camera, not 1080p but it works well. TIP: the ptz signal wires require a short connection to the dvr, or thick gauge wire (12ga?). That was even with the power adapter plugged on a nearby receptacle.
