SUNBA High Speed 4K 8MP PTZ Camera Outdoor, IP PoE+ Security Dome, 20X Optical Zoom, Two Way Audio &Built-in TF Card Slot, 24x7 Automatic Tour, Night Vision up to 328ft (405-D20X 4K)

The media could not be loaded. Amazing camera. Originally purchased the reolinlk 423. I was so dissapointed in thay camera the focus and zoom took litteraly a minute to get a clear picture and could only zoom to about the house across the street. After returning it I went with this camera the 405-dx20 unbelievable camera. I can zoom in to the end of my street ( prob quarter mile) and read a cars number plateand very quick zoom and focus no waiting around. I'm blown away by this camera and the quality and feature. The if at night is 10x better than the reolink it will light up the house across the street and can see everything. This camera is worth the $269 and more. I almost went with the 605 but the 405 looks perfect on my house it's not huge and annoying it blends right in with the house and does pretty much the same quality as the 605 but half the size. Read ther comparison chart on sunba website the 605 has everything as the 405 just more night vision on 605. Love this camera and plan on buying another for back yard

So I got this thinking it covered all of the bases I wanted for a PTZ camera that I was going to put up. From an external housing and mounting perspective it's built great, no complaints. Bonus points to the video head being able to fully rotate 360deg continuously.The night vision (when it works) is what you'd expect from a starlight sensor, so it's way ahead of non-starlight sensors. Considering the area it covers (looking out over a large backyard). It's great.Optical zoom is pretty good, and you do get the 20x ish zoom you would expect. It does have a bit of noise that does reverberate when it moves, so it's not completely silent.The problems start coming up when you start messing with it. The web interface effectively doesn't work on anything but Internet Explorer with an ActiveX plugin. This isn't too abnormal for security cameras, but it is something that is getting old fast, and I'm getting to the point where it's increasingly unacceptable. Configuration is fairly straight forward till you realize there's two systems at play. The web interface controls the camera overall, but portions of the PTZ is controlled independently, and is only accessible via Preset location "95", which pops up (on the video stream) an on screen menu to make additional changes to that, like set the home location. That is *SUPER* obnoxious, I get why it was likely done that way, but it's extremely poor user experience.So if those were my only issues this likely would get an overall 3 star with a weak recommendation. However now that I've got this up and in place, I'm finding the video stream to be exceptionally poor. It cuts out a lot on it's own, and when more than one device connects to it it basically gets overloaded (so if you have an NVR via rtsp and then connect to it from say tinycam pro to move it around to check things, you run the risk of getting lost connection to either or both). I've tried adjusting the video settings to make it easier for the onboard encoding to handle multiple streams, but to no useful avail. I have run into lots of times trying to move the camera with PTZ (via ONVIF) gets confused and lost and the video cuts out and camera just spins in circles till it catches up or gets power cycled. I've also seen (not regularly at least) where the day filter on the camera doesn't move and you get a ping glow to the whole night vision view.There's nothing here that screams, to me, that this unit is inherently broken or flawed. Like I said, when it works, it works great. This seems to be some issue more inherent in the system.I've attempted to contact Sunba tech support about the camera, to ask for guidance or commentary and their website is impossible to use to submit a question, and when I finally did I haven't heard any response in two weeks.Add that all up, and I honestly wish I could return the camera, but I'm beyond my return window, and it's bad enough I don't want to re-sell it because there's no way that someone is going to have a good time with this camera if their use case is even remotely like mine (and I'd argue my use case isn't terribly extreme given how many cameras I have running, or how many I've played with). The camera came so close to being what I wanted, I'm actually quite disappointed.

The Camera overall is very sturdy, high performance and has a good quality Imager for Superior Image and Resolution. The Pan/Tilt servo motors are fast and responsive, along with very bright and smart IR LED array for good Night vision. Like all, this camera has ONVIF protocol and will work with any NVR or software. The Camera has a 20x1 zoom lens and Focuses quickly after PTZ/Lens commands. This camera has the typical Active/Passive focus pattern while stationary for long periods, the camera will refocus every two minutes but does well at always being in focus after each attempt. I power all my cameras with a separate power cord instead of POE for better stability. Setup is the same as any IP Camera; connect to network, look in router log for IP or find MAC in List, open web browser and type in camera's IP address to gain access to GUI login page. Username: Admin Password: (none)After a few months of use, the only issues that have popped up is that one, this camera doesn't not respond to Preset Commands from my third party NVR (and most PTZ cameras don't) which was not a surprise. And two, in twilight conditions, the camera will get stuck in a back and forth battle between Night Mode and Day Mode for a few minutes until the Light conditions sway more to one side or the other which is not a big deal but it does put extra ware on the ICR Mechanism and internal relays. This doesn't seem to be an issue with other PTZ cameras that I have used.I do highly recommend this camera for all needs of Surveillance Home and Light Commercial.
