How to video, this is really cool😎😎
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I love this cam because this is super cheap for what they are offering in this price, they have night vision and pro like rotation where you can set the angles you want and fix ur camera on wall or somewhere so you don't have to rotate it again. It has a quick electronic focus

For under 40 bucks, it's a great little PTZ camera
UPDATE: Well, it 'was' a really great little camera for under 40 bucks. Now, it disconnects and reconnects every 60 seconds in a cycle rendering the camera completely worthless.Tried connecting it to a different router just to be sure and unfortunately that had the same result. Reset the unit, no help. Returning this one and I will buy this one again. Hopefully just mine was a dud.Was 4 stars, now only 1.Didn't expect this camera to perform as well as it does especially considering the price point. But it did everything pretty well. The APP is pretty decent but could certainly use some tweaks. A couple additional features would make the APP perfect. Setup can be done by an elderly person that can read! It IS that simple! Setup and worked great on my phone and tablet without issue. The Night Vision is weak and the 'Humanoid Face Detection' is horrific. Motion sense works well but not great. As long as those little issues don't bother you, this camera is fantastic.I used a 64 gig card and have the camera set to record ALL THE TIME, NONSTOP. At 10 days in, there is only 11 gig used so basically you will get close to 60 days of nonstop video! No need to set it up to record only when there is motion detected. I even checked to see if I could watch the first day of recording and yes, it is there. Oddly, and I do mean VERY ODDLY... if you leave a positive review on here, the company will send you a free 64 gig card for this camera....lol. Personally, I don't care about getting anything free and I rarely leave reviews but this really is a decent camera for the money. The build quality...well.... I am not so impressed with. The camera 'head', the part the PTZ is wobbly. I almost sent it back before trying it as I thought it was ready to come off. So yeah... THAT wobbly. Not sure if they are all this way but mine is but works fine. As for the microphone and built in speaker.... They are what you would expect. Not great but they are good enough.

Setup failed after several attempts. No product support.
I was unable to use this product due to setup difficulties. I kept getting an error message saying "5.0GHz not supported on this device." Apparently I have a dual router, both 5.0 GHz and 2.4 GHz, and the camera was unable to connect properly. It might work for someone with a different router that is strictly 2.4 GHz, but it is worthless to me. I tried in vain to contact heimvision support. Their website is useless, offering no contact info for the U.S. There is nothing but an email address in the owners manual. Amazon technical support was even unable to help me or provide a contact number for heimvision. I am returning the camera tomorrow. Amazon was good enough to offer me a refund.Update: I was eventually able to get the camera to work with my exiting router with help from my local cable company. Eventually, I got an email reply from heimvision. after I had the camera working. The camera did link to Alexa as advertised. So, I did upgrade my review, from one star to 3 stars. I will keep the camera and cancel my return.

Very Effective Security Camera
This is a great product especially for the price. It provides a clear picture even in darkness and the ability to pan around the room is a great feature. The camera has a slot for a mini SD card (not include) but you can also record through the app. I bought this to replace another brand camera which was far more expensive than this. I have had none of these issues with the Heimvision and hope that this continues to be the case. Easy to install. The app connects very easy using sound waves via the same wifi network.Can control the camera using the app from anywhere in the world as long as you have internet. RGB-IR sensors work great for night vision. Great product for the price. Has all the functions of any expensive camera that you may have considered. A+ Product. Overall I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this camera to others.

It could use some work but it works for what I need
There is a distinct blue hue to almost anything that’s not white when it’s lowlight. I emailed the company and they said it was due to something with the infrared. I’m pretty sure it’s a defect they don’t want to cover. But it works well enough to see what my dog is up to anyway. Night vision works pretty good. I can talk to my dog and hear what’s going on in the apartment.I like the fact that I can set camera positions to easily pan from one area to another and see the entire room quickly. I have noticed that it’s gone offline and although the WiFi was still connected on my second camera, it wouldn’t reconnect without being manually unplugged and replugged. Not an issue unless you’re on the other side of the globe and can’t do that. I’ve had to have my pet sitter unplug it to reboot but it’s no good when I have to send someone over so I can keep an eye on my pet.
