Oxford High School Surveillance Camera

This is kind of old school, it is literally a printed card with an alphanumeric license key on it, very 1998. You enter it manually into the Surveillance Station software. I hadn't typed a license key in like 10 years, it was kinda fun. No one likes paying licensing fees, of course. But this is fully transferable, so you can migrate it from one Synology box to another. Synology clearly puts a lot of resources into Surveillance Station, I have been running it for half a decade and it keeps evolving and improving. These products stand the test of time, my 12 year old Synology NAS not only still works, but is still supported. My Synology NVR runs better today than it did when I got it five years ago. So at least you get something for your license fee, and won't ever have to pay it again.

This is exactly what I needed to get my old surveillance camera back up and running. Thanks.

Great camera. It is shared with a high school yearbook staff. It is easy to use and very reliable.

When I first got the camera, I filmed my daughter's high school band concert...and with the resolution, I felt like I was at a high quality concert..as if I were watching a high definition public television concert.

Perfect for a high school on a tight budget.

High school seniors, valentine photos,

Perfect for micing up a high school play!

I'm using it for concerts, where it improves footage that previously looked more like a surveillance camera!

I'm no video expert, but I love this camera. Bought it to film my son's high school baseball games. During the pandemic, spectators are not allowed to get close, so had to film everything from the stands or odd angles down the line. With this camera, I can shoot from the outfield fences and still get crisp, high-res video. There are so many options and configurations (not that that's a bad thing) that it'll take me through his college years to learn it all, but the footage I'm gathering is really good. It's conveniently sized; I throw it in my handy Ruggard Onyx 25 Camera/Camcorder Shoulder Bag and off I go. I find the Ulanzi MT-11 Multifunctional Octopus Tripod (which people all the time ask me where I got it) to be really helpful as it allows me to mount the camera on almost any fence or railing for more stability. Got everything at B&H. My salesman was patient and didn't try to sell me. Good experience all around.
