What would be a nice 720p or 1080p outdoor wireless ip cam that works well with Veralite, offers pan/tilt && zoom (important) while not breaking the bank? My roof is a little higher than the avg 2-story home and I want one under the edge at the top/center(maybe). Enough to see the whole backyard. I’ll need the zoom so I can see things better from that height and the pan/tilt so it can troll to capture the entire yard.

Any recommendations?

Thanks ;D

That is neither 720/1080 nor zoomable so that won’t help. That looks pretty much just like a foscam to be honest. I have foscam for inside and it works great for that. For outside though I need 720/180 (this is because of height/distance from ground it needs to be hung) and zoomable. Wireless obviously :slight_smile:

I can’t get the zoom to work through vera however. The picture is really good considering the price.

That looks like it could have potential but reading reviews online, even though it has zoom it has no focus. So the second you start to zoom everything goes out of focus. I read one review where the manufacturer told them to open the dome up and play with the lens…but then you have to do that every time you adjust the zoom…and defeats the purpose of wireless especially if it’s hung high like mine will. So that’s a close find right there. If it had focus, that would be a really good camera.
