Snapshot on Argus 2

amasmiller

Hello!

I recently purchased an Argus 2.

Impressive product, but, was disappointed to learn that it does not have an HTTP/FTP snapshot capability, as it appears almost all other Reolink cameras have.

I'd like to use such a feature to create a time lapse of my garden growing.

Any plans to incorporate such a feature (or a similar one)?

Thanks!

Any update on this from the Reolink staff?

Hi amasmiller， thanks for your suggestion and it may increase the battery usage. So I'm afraid the R&D won't add the feature. Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding.

Maybe the R&D department would consider a timer built into the firmware that could be programmed to take a snapshot at a certain time each day or every n hours and then email or push the picture to an FTP location. We as users understand that doing that everyday or every hour would deplete the battery much faster - but in my case, with a solar panel attached, power is not nearly as much of a problem. Having this capability would make using the Argus 2 a far more useful battery powered device.

This capability is really the only thing that is lacking for using a solar powered Argus 2 a weather camera.

I'm also interested in this feature. I also have a Argus 2 + Solar Panel, and planning on buying several more if this feature is even considered in the near future.

Best.
