Comment on Security camera recommendations?

I went with Frigate, and based on the maintainer’s recommendations and on what was actually available in Europe, I went with one of the Hikvision models.

Just make sure to completely isolate them from the internet as there are some serious privacy concerns about using them online.

Oh! Interesting! The maintainer doesn’t have Reolink in their recommendations. (Although… the affiliate link stuff kinda muddies the water…)

I recommend Dahua, Hikvision, and Amcrest in that order.

Here are some of the cameras I recommend:

Loryta(Dahua) IPC-T549M-ALED-S3 (affiliate link)

Loryta(Dahua) IPC-T54IR-AS (affiliate link)

Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-AI-V3 (affiliate link)

HIKVISION DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL ColorVu 8MP Panoramic Turret IP Camera (affiliate link)

There is a suggested Reolink setup mentioned though: docs.frigate.video/…/camera_specific/#reolink-cam…

Reolink has many different camera models with inconsistently supported features and behavior.
