    Thank you for the great info! I’m looking at either one of these cameras for an application overlooking our paddocks with horses. How are these cameras zoom capabilities? Or is there a better camera that ubiquity provides for this application? Thank you

  • @LarsKlintTech
    @LarsKlintTech20 сағат бұрын

    It depends on what you mean by zoom. Do you want to set the zoom and forget, or do you want to follow the horses around or something else? The G4 Pro and G5 Pro have the same 3x zoom optics, which are meant to be set once you get it and then not really after. It is a way to get the right frame for recording. If you want to move it in real time, I suggest looking at the G5 PTZ. My video for that comes out next week. 😊

    I would prefer a solar panel option for power, I rent so I can’t drill

  • @LarsKlintTech
    @LarsKlintTechКүн бұрын

    It would be interesting to see a solar panel camera from Unifi, but there are several challenges. 1) Keeping a battery charged with a solar panel for a high quality camera that runs 24/7 is a tall order. You either need a big solar panel or a big battery, and even then you aren't guaranteed it won't run out. 2) Unifi is known for their reliability and high quality in cameras. A solar powered camera is by design not as reliable as a wired camera. 3) A solar panel adds complexity to the engineering and design, so the prize might be too high for the market, which is used to very cheap solar panel cameras currently available. In your case, maybe it is worth looking at cable runs or PoE adaptors for things you are able to install.

    I'm annoyed on your behalf that you install the camera and then have to go back and adjust it after its adopted. Please adopt the camera at your network rack before you install it, so you can see the camera on your phone and install and adjust all at once, saves going up and down the ladder. Even if not for yourself, for my sanity haha Apart from that, great video as always, I'm dissapointed I did g4's at my house, the new camera are significantly better and cheaper, I really bought at the wrong time

    There are many ways to install it. In some of the videos I have adopted the camera from the phone after install, which does allow me to adjust straight away.

  • @LarsKlintTech
    @LarsKlintTech2 күн бұрын

    You just had to put me on the spot, didn't you Terence? 😛 It kinda depends on the scenario, so I'll give you three. 1) For best bang for your buck, the G5 Turret Ultra. It has a very high quality image and very long IR range for a very low price. 2) All time favourite is the AI Pro with the AI Pro Vision Enhancer. It is extremely high quality, tracks number plates, faces, animals, and lots of noises. With the enhancer, you get a loud speaker, excellent floodlight, 40 meters IR range, and a radar. I just love that camera. 3) For the most versatile, feature rich, most room for upgrades (from Unifi) is the G5 PTZ. It is really capable and has some super neat features. My video on this comes out next week. Which is your favourite?

    What a coincidence... I installed one of these at my Front Door the day before this vdeo came out as I wanted something unobtrusive... It is so much better than the Hikvision I had in the same spot and being so small, it doesnt look out of place... 2 things you missed (maybe)... (1) When you get it lined up, there is a small screw on the side of the camera (without cover on) to lock the camera angle in place, and (2) One of those "instruction manuals" is a nice cleaning cloth.... I find with a good amount of light, it has an excellent picture, but not much light, it gets a bit grainy... But, overall, excellent product.

    Just found your channel and ive been loving it so far. I have a horse barn i want to mount a Unifi camera to along with some Ir floodlights. I want to be able to see as far as i can at night. What would you recommend for that? i would assume the g5 pro would be best? so like, which is best at night without the built in ir light? Ill also be putting a g5ptz to look around and the 1/2.4" is a sensor size idk why they measure like that, but its just a weird fraction of an inch. 1/2.4th of an inch 0.41666" (repeating of course)

  • @LarsKlintTech
    @LarsKlintTech2 күн бұрын

    Welcome Ryan 😊 And thanks for the kind words. For a barn you want something wide angle. The G5 Pro is a great camera, but in this case I'd say check out the G5 Turret. It is a very clear image, and the IR range is excellent. I know you said you'd put up IR floodlights, but check it out anyway. I did a video on it last week. It will save a lot of $$ and it might just be what you need. Otherwise the G5 Pro is a very good camera too. I am currently editing the G5 PTZ video, which will be out next week too 😁 Alright, now I need to then figure out which sensor does a better job in what scenario. Thanks mate.

    @@LarsKlintTechhmm I think I’ll try the turret. Reasonably priced and I like the look. Better IP rating than the bullet anyway. Larger sensor could mean higher quality images, or just more light. And obviously a 1/2” is bigger than a 1/2.4”. It just looks really weird having a fraction on a decimal Can’t wait for the PTZ video! I watched your turret video not long after it came out.

    A Home Assistant Green is a much better option imo. It uses eMMC storage, which is very stable and reliable. I don't know what storage type the ISG has, as they won't share that information. With the Green, you get timely updates, no proprietary software that wakes things more confusing and more out of date. And the Green is cheaper.

    May I ask where you are sourcing all the latest equipment from? I ask because recently when you had a video on a switch you were replacing, the powercord was US and you discarded that. So led me to think you must be getting them from the UI web store, but when I try and use their webstore there is no way to be able to get something shipped to Australia. If you were buying from any Australian reseller, I assume they would have the AU plug. So are UI sending you these items as freebies? Or how are you able to get access to all their latest gear otherwise?

    I love the detective work 😀 It's no secret that UI sends devices for review, which is one of the perks of being passionate about creating good content, and spending many many hours on it. It comes from the US so the power cord is one of the things that I need to replace most of the time.
