Looking for a wifi PTZ

Recommended Posts


The WIFI ptz on the market are for home use, they are not professional level. I've tried one (WIPTZ) from 123-cctv.com. Facial detail is 20ft max. Make sure you have a strong router and you know how to do networking. Don't expect free tech support anywhere to do networking for you.

I bought one from agassio/foscam so I'll try it out next week and give a review. The price is very

reasonable and other reviews were not so bad.

I have a Foscam, its not exactly PTZ, ie it doesn't zoom, more like PTnoZ. Its a total toy even compared to a $50 wired security cam. No IR filter means washed out images at day, poor IR means very little light at night. Its only good for getting a feel of what is going on.

All the wireless ptz on the market are the same. They are toys

It amazes me that they advertise those cheap foscams as ptz's but their only pt's!

 

The one I ordered has 3x optical which is about equal to a 9mm lens. I really dont need much zoom, I'm more concerned with being outdoor and connecting via wifi. If the pan and tilt is slow that is also ok with me. All I want to do is to be able to pan and tilt onto where I park my car on a public street and than record it from a remote location onto an external hard drive I have set aside.
