Final conclusion

Score: 4Per criterion

Ease of use

Score: 3

This camera bought for a piece of security. He hangs in a corner of 90 on the wall. Unfortunately, I had not previously looked good and appears to be the viewing angle but 70 degrees and, therefore, can we not all overlooked

The web interface will only start once you have a plugin installed. This does not (yet) under Chrome. There they were still doing so perhaps in the future it may have.

The options that the camera has been quite complete. So you can create schedules to set when it should record. Areas in the image and if movement is detected, then a recording started.

Recordings of the video can only ftp to be sent to a server. In case of an alarm it can also take photos which are then also sent by email.

With the setting up of the FTP I had a challenge. This is because, to my server sent. The check in the interface gave the result “Success” while no files were placed. However, there were the camera cases produced. It turned out to be a setting in the ftp server. After that was adjusted everything worked properly.

All in all, a beautiful camera.
