Exceptional 4K Security Camera with Night Vision and AI Features
I recently installed the Amcrest camera and I’m incredibly impressed with its performance. The camera delivers stunning 4K resolution with exceptional clarity, even in low-light conditions. The night vision is truly remarkable, providing full-color footage even in darkness. This is a significant improvement over my previous security cameras, which struggled in low light.The AI features are also very impressive. The camera can accurately detect human and vehicle movement, and it can even distinguish between people and pets. This has been a lifesaver in terms of reducing false alarms. I’m also impressed with the camera’s ability to track motion, which allows me to follow a person or vehicle as they move across the field of view.Installation was a breeze, and the camera is very easy to use. The Amcrest View app is intuitive and user-friendly, and it allows me to monitor my property from anywhere in the world. I’m also very happy with the camera’s build quality. It feels solid and well-made, and I’m confident that it will withstand the elements.Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the camera. It’s a high-quality security camera that delivers exceptional performance in all lighting conditions. The AI features are a valuable bonus, and the camera is very easy to use. I highly recommend this camera to anyone looking for a top-of-the-line security solution.
F & E –
Great drop in replacement!
1. Setup – I already have an NVR setup and I have 2 2k POE cameras and one doorbell camera. I swapped the 2k (also amcrest) in the front of the house with the 4k. Switching it out was super simple. The way these mount is the same so it was straightforward and I didnât have to use the installation drill guide or anything. The NVR recognized it right away and I was able to set it up without any issues. It was a frictionless swap between the two cameras.2. Quality – The build quality is pretty much the same as the 2k cameras I have which is not a bad thing and I expect it to withstand the weather without any issues. The image quality is notably sharper. We have a streetlight in front of our house so the camera doesnât switch to night mode most of the time which is fine. The light isnât much use to me because of the mounting location. I have it mounted near the top of the A pillar in front of the house so itâs pretty high up and can see the entire cul de sac. Having it so far away meant that details were lost with the previous camera. Zooming in the image, the quality improvement is most noticeable and welcome.3. Functionality – I have my cameras running 24/7 and recording all movement. I didnât really test the AI motion capture features because I donât really feel the need for them currently. Itâs not very often that I actually look at the recorded footage and have to look for something, but when I do, the motion capture and person capture flags that I already have setup were enough. I keep the same settings as before.ConclusionAfter using it for a couple weeks, I didnât have any connection issues come up. It integrated with my existing system perfectly and without issues. As someone with a NVM system already installed, I think this product is perfect for me as a drop-in replacement to upgrade image quality. The light is a nice feature but not something I use. The improved night vision is welcome but not super important for where I have it installed. Overall I feel good that the footage captured is of much higher quality so that in the event that I do need to scrub back and look for something, I know Iâll have superior details.
Carl Reviews –
Extremely Happy With the Camera!
Review for: Amcrest 4K Night Color AI Turret IP PoE Camera 49ft Full Color Nightvision, Security IP Camera, Built-in Microphone, Human Detection, Perimeter Protection, 129° FOV, 4K@15fps IP8M-2779EB-AI (Black)This is another amazing product from Amcrest. I already own have the 5MP Turret( IP5M-T1277EW) and this 4K version is an excellent upgrade. The cameras practically have the same features, but the IP8M-2779EB has 4K video resolution. The box says the it uses H.265 HEVC compression but you can change that to H.264 (which might be necessary to use the footage in other third party applications [Like APPLE HOMEKIT via Scrypted]). This change and lots of other settings can be done in the camera’s web interface (just type the camera’s IP address into the browser). I’ve found that the web interface is all that I really need to configure that camera settings. I have the AmcrestViewPro app on my iPhone, but it’s isn’t very user friendly. I typically use the app to scan the camera’s QR code and (after at least one app crash) set up my login info for the web interface.Pros:- Easy to set up and use- Very solid build quality- Great picture, even at night- Very useful web interface- PERFECT for adding to APPLE HOMEKIT via Scrypted because a) the price, b) the H.264 video codec, c) You can have the main full quality video stream and set up two other sub-streams that are lower resolution.Cons:- I wish that the frame rate FPS was a bit high. It’s 15 FPS, which is pretty typical for this type of 4K camera. My other Amcerst Turret ( IP5M-T1277EW) actually goes up to 20, but it isn’t 4K.- I wish that the app experience was better, but the web interface is great, and there are lots of other third party software that will work with this camera.- The camera seemed to get a bit warm while I was testing it in the house. That’s probably fine, since it has a metal body.- My camera came with what appears to be a small crack or a piece of debris inside of the lenses housing (see photo). It doesn’t seem to impact the camera footage in any way, but this is why I deducted a star.I’m very happy with this camera and will likely get a few more and an NVR to finish out my security system.
