Motion Zones, Person Detection, and Pre-Record

I know the common response of "due to the nature of PIR...", but other companies are doing it. I just invested in 4 Argus 3 cams with solar panels and am missing these features. I was thinking I would be able to tweak the motion settings to get it how I want, but that's proven to be a pain.

Motion Zones - Ring battery operated, PIR spotlight cam does this.
Person Detection - Same as above and Wyze.
Pre-Record - The new Blink cams have this option.

It's out there using PIR....hope to see Reolink catch up so I don't feel like I just made a poor buying choice.

Thanks

I just received 2 x Argus 2 and am disappointed motion zones are not supported. I know the Reolink website says not all features are available on battery powered cameras but it's not clear which features.

I like my cameras - I use them to monitor my chicken coop, but I can't use the PIR and recording as they set it off continously and really I'm only interested to know if the door gets opened.

Other than this I'm very happy with them, but running power to the chicken coop isn't an option.
