PTZ camera recommendations

[Kjell Osness]

Hi all,

   Any out there in Camect land use any particular PTZ cameras?  I have a customer that would like one and am not sure if there is one controllable from the app.  Thank you.

Most Onvif PTZs are controllable, i.e. they work as long as they have a good Onvif implementation and support one of the more common ways of exposing PTZ controls via Onvif.  Make sure you're adding the camera as an Onvif camera rather than any specific camera type.  Some specific brands have PTZ support too, e.g. Amcrest/Dahua, SV3C, Hikvision.

I know from personal experience that Reolink and Sunba PTZ cameras work with Camect.

Hi Kjell

   Been using mostly Dahuas for several years now, Had good luck with them for the most part, I have 7 in total, 5 are Dahuas and two of them are PTZs. Using Safari to interface with the Camect. Not sure about PTZ control with IOS, but you can control PTZ from Safari, but its a bit laggy.
