Surveillance Cameras St John

Great Service, John Mac, St Louis, Missouri

I just received the lens on Tuesday 9/1/15 and left for St John USVI on Thursday. It is a great all around carry lens. I had originally got the kit lens 16mm-50mm, then I purchased the 10mm-18mm, and then the 55mm-210mm. I have been happy with all of them except for the fact I found I was constantly inbetween lens when on the go and having to change frenquently. I am taking family shots and have a small toddler so you have to be quick but I also like landscape so this lens has pretty much all of the major bases covered but it would be nice if it was 18mm-210mm but that might be asking to much. It seems smooth and I almost always use the manual focus and hardly use the power zoom. I like it as I find I use it the most now.

All cameras, lenses & filters from B & H are excellent. John Lodge

Cameras easy to use and take great pictures. I use them for hunting and for surveillance around my property. I have several cameras.

it works John

......that hasn't already been said by millions. B&H is the best! John

The Revo ST-500 is a well-built stabilizer for smaller cameras. I tested it with my Fuji camera, and after some initial adjustments to get it balanced correctly, it worked well. I believe it will become my go-to gimbal for my GoPro or compact camera due to its portability. The stabilizer is made of sturdy materials, so I expect it to last a long time. It's simple to assemble, and once you understand how to balance it, you can capture steady shots. While I didn't experiment with complex camera movements, I was pleasantly surprised by how well it performed for basic walking and talking shots.

The VOSKER camera is a great camera. I use it for surveillance around our house and it does the job perfectly. Thankfully it doesn’t pick up every little thing either which is great. Also there is a setting where you can change the sensitivity because I know sometimes the cameras can pick up every little thing. I have my camera set on video mode and the quality of the footage is great both day and night. Also what is awesome about these cameras is you can still use them as a trail camera and what’s great is you can put them high in the tree and have them look down on the trail or a field edge. I had never used a surveillance camera before until now and there’s no other camera I would use for surveillance than VOSKER. Thanks Dustin

We have purchased two of these so far to use primarily as NVRs for a large number of IP cameras on a school campus. Licensing costs aside, Synology Surveillance Station does a really nice job making it easy to set up and scale with the number of cameras you have. We linked two together, making one the primary and the other a secondary target for recordings. Surveillance Station records direct-to-disk, and does a decent job of adjusting camera settings directly using ONVIF. We have about 50+ cameras running at resolutions from 1280x720 up to 2560x1600, some PTZ, some ceiling-mount fisheyes, mostly wide angle fixed, and everything works pretty well. We were even able to use the manual camera configuration to use some uncommon double-lens cameras. With about 26 cameras assigned to each RS422+, we see about 20-25% CPU on each on average during a typical day. We can comfortably handle 32 per unit, and supposedly up to 40 if needed. With x4 6TB drives in each set in SHR-1 (equivalent to RAID5) we have about a month or so of footage retention. The licensing is a little pricey at $50 per camera (unless you buy in bulk from some european IP camera shops...), but it is perpetual and I think worth the expense. Using two of these units, 8 cheap drives from eBay (luckily these do not suffer from the Synology whitelist) and a bunch of camera licenses, for around under $5000 I was able to build and set up a really easy to use and reliable NVR system with plenty of future expandability. 2-3 users are regularly connected on their desktops without issue.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This card is an overall, dependable memory card. The amount of space offered has been ideal for my home camera that I used to take semi-professional photographs of family, friends, & the outdoors. It has made it easier to inspect photos/videos taken by my home surveillance cameras also. It provides very clear images. I’ve had zero issues with this memory card so far. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for a memory card for there home surveillance, especially if they plan on being away from home for a long time, the storage hours are amazing!! I would definitely recommend for any professional photographers as well, or anyone that loves holding onto family memories (such as myself) this is definitely the ideal memory card for you! I have over 60k family pictures saved, I plan on purchasing extras for my surveillance cameras!!
