Reolink RLC-510A

An update to my previous review ...

Despite reporting that the RLC-510A was easy to set up in Blue Iris 4 using ONVIF, I soon found out that it could not record video for very long without the video stream becoming severely-deteriorated.

Well-made, good image quality and very easy to set up.

I only had to plug this aluminium-body camera into a POE port and press "search for ONVIF camera" in Blue Iris.

The packaging is well designed and comes with everything you need to get up and running. My only regret is not buying more while they were on sale.

It just worked

I run QVR-Pro on a QNAP NAS TS-453A and this is my fourth camera (first Reolink camera). I plugged this in and it just worked. The 5MP delivers excellent resolution with good wide angle, great info-red night vision and picks up sound well too. I’ll be back for one or two more! Great value.
