I have adjusted the settings in the cameras quite a lot. Even if I turn it down to the lowest sensitivity setting it still detects rain drops falling through the air or insects buzzing around as motion but on the other hand doesn’t detect a human walking on the lawn. Turning it up more would just make it worse. My conclusion is that pixel comparison isn’t suitable in my situation.

I am wondering what the benefit of those cameras you mentioned compared to RLC-822A is with regards of the detection of motion.

I am actually not so much interested in any other feature than that. And it seems that all 3 have the same smart detection feature.

Best would be to get a Reolink camera with integrated PIR motion sensor. Wich POE camera offers that? I am not talking about PI Light!

Hi there

I just installed the RLC-520 on the front of our house and I am not satisfied with the motion detection. that’s not the fault of the camera - to be honest I just wanted to try a camera out and learn what works in my situation. The frame to frame comparison of the camera isn’t ideal for my situation. I get a lot of false alarms due to rain, insects and wind. Actually in that order. Rain seems to be the biggest challenge at night in my situation. Here you can see a snapshot of the cameras perspective.



Which Camera or Setup would offer me the highest quality level of motion detection? I know that there is smart motion detection which is software processing, right? Is there also a PoE with buildi in IR sensor? What works better from experience. I am really just interested in detecting people on my property.
