Do you find the C500 motion detection too sensitive? I have both the C500 and C800. The C500 detects changes in shades of light via sun movement. Whereas the C800 I find detects true motion of large moving objects. Much less false alerts, if any. What are your experiences with motion detection for the C500?
I don't like these new twist on mounts Annke is using. They go on, but there is no point of positive resistance making it feel locked on. A gentle and slight anti-clockwise twist and they are off. Feels like a backwards step from the old system that was nice and secure in comparison.
It's plasticity now, the older ones had all metal construction that's a letdown, the C800 4k cameras are very good video quality and reliability is great. Ankee support has been excellent.
The colourvu camera's are surely a much better option these days. I mean you want to be able to identify colours not black and white. Plus your having to keep cleaning spiderwebs from the infrared sensors
@@Messimagician83 But the colorvu cameras always have a (very visible) LED on ? Having to put something on my front yard, I would like to have the most discrete camera (in a reasonable price range, I mean). What model / type of (Hikvision ?) camera should I consider (short view angle needed 4mm or more) ?
@@allen912 but you don't, you have the option to turn the light off if you wanted to. The thing is if you were looking to rob something and you weren't hiding your face and a light comes on in the general direction your heading the first thing you would do is look at the light when it comes on capturing the perps face
why everyone who review the camera lets the camera go out internet and installing the app? I do not get people. Why you think that sharing your videos potentially with the whole internet is ok? You'd better block in your router camera go out and see what is possible to do with it. Could you access recorded videos of a card over ethernet?

How do I get this camera to record video to my FTP server?
Ia there a membership fee to use the app?
No it’s free

Cheapest colorvu costs at least 4 times more than this one.
@@EnsErkl I understand that but being able to identify someone in colour is much easier than these cameras I found
