Hi Moises ..

In general:

1) more affordable IP PoE cameras use more affordable components and thus smaller sensors and thus do not do well in low light conditions. ( Reolink makes affordable IP PoE cameras and NVRs and uses more affordable components .. )

2) Reolink has numerous reported issues with compatibility with other OEMs, and thus can not easily add a better Hikvision or Dahua OEM camera with a larger sensor to the Reolink NVR

3) Reolink does not make ( so far that I have seen ) cameras with larger sensors . instead cheats a bit on the firmware to make low light STILL images look better that the expense of moving images.

Thus if you need low light image capture I would look for a Hikvision or Dahua OEM cameras with larger sensors ( 4MP and 1/1.8" or 8MP and 1/1.2" )

I have Blink outdoor cameras right now and want to go to a wired system. Right now, all I would want is 4 cameras, with the option to expand. What is your opinion on this Lorex system? The price is near my top end. I know that you recommend a 1/1.2" sensor, and this is only a 1/2.8" sensor. Is the 30FPS (smoother video) important? Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi @SharpHerring ..

Looks like a Dahua OEM NVR and Cameras ..

The Cameras have small sensors .. 1/2.8" for 8MP .. thus unlike past times when Lorex sold 1/1.8" and 8MP cameras in some of their kits .. I would skip this kit if you need better low light performance.

Rather a disappointment to me that you can not find larger sensor cameras from many brands.

imho, better to spend more and get better cameras .. or get fewer better cameras.
