So far all the Reolink cameras I have seen use more affordable and smaller sensors and do not do well in low light conditions
Very happy with the quality and ease of setup. I would recommend getting one of the 2 way audio cameras with color night vision, the color night vision acts like a flood light (you can turn it off completely, auto, or to come on per a schedule you can setup.), great for areas of your house that are dark, they are very bright...
Very customizable, there's even a buzzer that you can setup to make noise from the dvr when it detects a person (ie ours is setup to make an audible noise when someone is near the front yard).
I have the 2tb dvr with 2 RLC-811A cameras and 1 duo2 180 degree camera, currently get 10 days of 24/7 recording, it is expandable to 6tb internal and 6 tb external via esata. I did have a problem with the duo2 camera spotlights not coming on when person was detected, reolink support responded same day with new firmware update to fix the problem.
Quality is great, can read license plates in daytime 30' away on angle while cars moving 30mph.
PLEASE post your videos here of moving subjects .. I am eagerly looking forward to a good Reolink low light image capture of a moving suspect ..
Feel free to post at ipcamtalk, or if you like on youtube ( and I will be happy to share it )

btw here is an example of Reolink low light issues as shared on youtube by LifeHacker ..

As far as outside i couldnt quickly find a movement lol. Maybe tomorrow ill go and jump around to see if i get what your citing.
I mean are we talking zoomed in? Reflective surfaces are troublesome as well
Depends on what you need to camera to do for you .. for me, I need the security aspect ..
For me the key parts are:
Security Camera System Minimal Viable Product requirements:
I had originally posted that in my first big post on the topic .. it is a bit dated now .. still the DORI principles apply

you mention that it's been a bad market for cams, and what to look for in terms of sensor size, but do you have specific models you can list off so I (we) can get an idea of what's decent?
Prior to the pandemic and supply chain mess up we were seeing deals on 8MP 1/1.8" sensor model cameras.
While not as good as a 4MP 1/1.8" sensor camera in low light - they were in general better than the 1/2.5" 8MP sensor models ..
If you want more MP .. and low light performance, the price goes up significantly for many of us. ( if you're here in the Reolink thread, the 8MP 1/1.2" cameras will probably break your allocated piggy bank .. )
In general, 8MP security cameras that are currently sold to us consumers now have smaller sensors, and they have added some small LED lights to make up for a cheaper sensor. Blah .. bait and switch I say ..
Right now, it is super challenging to find cameras that are on budget and with larger sensors .. if you're looking for particular model numbers and reviews, do go to ipcamtalk and look for various posts by key members there.
The rest of POE are mounted with limited night vision in mind and work just fine. So is their better? Sure there is always better but at a much higher cost. Again know the limitations and set your expectations and you'll be happy.
If a car pulls in my driveway the camera is able to see the license plate. So yes if the camera is 30ft+ away good luck but everyone's situation is different and after having hiccups with the setup I recommend buy the NVR and cameras individually.
If you're worried about privacy with always connected cameras don't use them inside and have on separate vlan.
Otherwise reliability wise I have not had issues with my camera's in middle of winter or heat of summer but they are mounted under the eaves and not in direct elements.
Lorex nocturnal systems are very nice for the money. Large sensors, encoding, metal housings, and 30fps. I frequently have customers disappointed at video quality of moving objects, cars in particular, that appear blurry when moving. That's what you'll get with a 15/20fps camera. Regardless of resolutions, the higher framerate is what most people notice and want.

models would be great

TIA
I guess it comes down to something I can't decide. Balance of absolute need to identify or just need to see what is/was going on at any given time. I live rural and not much going on. Set it and forget it, pull it up and review infrequently.
And usually untold is how great the mobile app, it's amazing. So many options and features if you want. And that's coming and helping friends with Revo, Arlo, Eufy, Ring and Lorex systems where their app is very basic, almost old school, the Reolink is great for power users. It's constantly being updated too with new features - just check out the app version history in your iOS or Android app store to see what I mean, and firmware releases for the camera itself.
One call out for anyone new into researching home security cameras. Any negative reviews for any camera company are usually about two things: battery life and wifi signal. This is why I went with PoE cameras to avoid both down sides. Once you read reviews about wired cameras, the reviews lean positive. Depends on what's possible in your home of course, but poe is worth the effort and add wifi cameras where it's a must.
Pro-Tip: the 2TB drive inside can be swapped out easily. Just click format once powered backup and that's it. And see this article: https://www.reddit.com/r/reolinkc...oe_s
