REOLINK 4K 8MP Outdoor Security Camera with 5X Optical Zoom, Wi-Fi 6 Tech, Smooth Remote Viewing with H.265 Recording, Color Night Vision, Human/Vehicle/Animal Detection, RLC-811WA

Presumably you understand the sophisticated features of this very well designed and made AI sensor camera, one of the latest in Reolink's evolving line. One question you may have (that I couldn't find the answer to) is, Yes, it stays zoomed in to whatever setting you leave it. However, it appears the various sensor settings may work on the extended (zoomed out) field of view, not just what you set it to look at (look out you waving ferns, I gotta clip you back.) Another issue for me was having to use this a Long Way from the NVR, via 2 OAPs, it cannot connect to the NVR if it doesn't have the same 192.198.XXX address as the NVR (if your OAPs generate other XXX addresses, your only recording option is on a micro SD card, 256GB holds a Ton of shots even with pre and long after recording, and waving ferns lol.)I don't use the IR or floodlights for night vision. There's a lamp nearby that the camera picks up weak color vision with, it is so sensitive.While it has a very sturdy metal case, I chose to anchor, hide and further protect it in 4" ABS plumbing fittings, which it fits into perfectly (not 3".) Easy to extend the antennas outside the shell with cables here, and Excellent WiFi reception even through the jungle. Also makes a snug, warm home for a few geckos.

Very quality camera, software controls works well. No complaints.

Had a problem with the camera where the image was blurry. Customer service assisted me and powering off and on fixed the issue.Thought something may have been melted as it was in direct sunlight, a quick reboot fixed the issue.

Added 4 of these to our Reolink RLK12-800wpt4 NVR system. The setup really couldn't have been any easier. Image quality is great and the FOV is very impressive. The most difficult part of setup was the installation. A little more clarity on the adjustability of the mounting plate would have made the job a bit easier. There is a small hex screw on the mounting plate that seems to allow rotational adjustment, but didn't seem to loosen enough for easy horizontal/vertical adjustment. The cameras are a bit bigger than the turret style cameras that I'm used to, likely due to the 5X optical zoom mechanism. If replacing existing cameras, be aware that the size of this camera could make mounting difficult in tight spaces. I would highly recommend this camera.

I own over 30 Reolink cams for home and business. I’ve been buying from them since they only sold overseas. With Every new release the connection gets worse. They are only getting slower every year. I can’t load anything anymore. In an emergency you’ll be gone before looking at live view. The only thing Reolink are good for is reviewing the recorded videos. I thought It was my internet for a long time. Until I got introduced to Wyze. I bought the Wyze new release V4 and I couldn’t believe the quality And how fast it loads. I’m so upset with Reolink because I was a long time customer )Over 7 years). In my opinion, the only Camera that Reolink had made solid and loads super fast was C1-PRO PTZ. Which they have discontinued! I went ahead and bought 16 Wyze cams and buying more. The world is getting worse and California has a lot of problems. I can’t wait on Reolink to fix their software or whatever the issue is. Nothing loads fast, colors are not what I call “True Colors” so I can’t really tell the skin color of people in an emergency evidence situation. At least with Wyze I can actually see true colors and true impressions of faces!

The media could not be loaded. Out of all security cameras that I have (Wi-Fi and hardwired network), this Reolink 811WA is the very best! It does everything I need from a Wi-Fi security camera. Really, if I knew this company before, I would never spend thousands of dollars on Mobotix cameras that don’t work as good as this one. Reolink suggests 5Ghz as Wi-Fi band preference, which works perfect when used inside. However, for outside use (longer distance and concrete walls) it’s better to set up 2.4Ghz to avoid dropping signal. It has excellent night vision. When the motion detector senses an intruder, the camera sends a notification on my iPhone and iPad at the same time. After easy set up it brings false alarms to a minimum. On top of everything, it also has optical zoom which is rare, especially for this price.
