  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ก.ค. 2024
  • Today, we are going to check and test out an affordable wired outdoor WiFi camera from EZVIZ... the C3N. It has 3 night vision modes. Full color recording with its 2 spotlights ON at night or traditional Black and White version with its 2 IR LEDs turned ON or the smart night vision mode...where the camera will be on black and white mode until it senses motion and its 2 spotlights will be activated and will start recording in full color.
    So, we will do the unboxing, check out its features, set it up and do some testing and see if this wired weatherproof camera from EZVIZ can be a good option for your home.

    The C26E has ONVIF and a speaker but only WIFI. In my opinion it is the better camera.

    I've been trying to pickup 2 of their 1080p indoor cameras, and I want to add in this camera where I have an outdoor outlet for power.
    I say trying because a local retailer had the indoor cameras and some microSD cards on sale, and i ordered them a month ago. They originally told me ONLY the sd cards were on back order so woth a lot of back and forth, we agreed to cancel the cards and they'll send me the cameras. Immediately after that was settled, they now said both items are in back order. They already charged my credit card FFS.

      I think as long as the write speed is able to keep up so you'll need maybe a class 10 or so. My experience with dashcam has me maintaining a degree of loyalty with Samsung, so far they've struck a good balance between price, performance, and longevity. I've had Lexar and Sandisk both die in less then a year of use.
