Logically, offers the Fi9831 with its 1.3 lens actually a significantly better sharpness than the Fi9821 with 1.0. Plus a erwweiterten angle of approximately 70 to 80 degrees seemingly genuine. The rest of the technique seems identical. Both cams are in their price range of the imaging performance, and from her functions, simply top class.
In the off infrared LEDs, the color picture is very good, but depending on the color temperature of the lamps even at night when the lights on. For the motion alarm (motion detection) seems automatic. LED circuit however (at night black and white picture) better.
Who wants to exhaust the overall technical performance, must also bring a willingness to get involved with this technique and to learn them.
I have the "60" already passed something, then you can do it too!
The software seems now mature and has lots of settings. Who is ready to deal with new technology, could be excited. This does also mean: These settings must also be made to ensure that the cam is working as desired.
For smartphones: the original Foscam app (on CD), just google what a * .apk)), now is the next version of the CD Fi9831, updateable for older CDs via Google Account. The remote control leaves nothing to be desired, and is almost perfect (and free).
Note: setting on the PC: Mainstream
Set Substream, because of transmission speed and data volume: for the smartphone.
The smaller image size is very keen on my G525.
The bundled DDNS manufacturer is easily usable,
but who z..B. a Fritz box has, can certainly use this as a remote access.
It is very important there, on the manufacturer's website the latest firmware updates to download. In the accompanying each file is exactly which version must already be installed (order), and how the installation to take place. This is precisely what followed. That takes some patience, but works without problems.
The PC software (Version No. compare.) For "HD or H264" update times. They are available now with menu in German, but the English version seems better to me.
Conclusion: The price-performance ratio of both devices is simply outstanding. However, modern technology and exceptional wants also some training.
Many of the negative reviews I can not, or maybe they have to understand it.!
Who complains here about too many settings in the software, has understood nothing. If I negatively judge a car or a camera, because the air conditioning or the camera's manual settings offer too many options, then the technology is often very good, less good are the manager or, lamenting the fact and probably can not cope with it.
Another urgent request in conclusion: There are always different ways the most intelligent Note: "I still have to write 14 characters," lalalalalalala "" or the like.
That annoys customers who want to form an opinion on a device, and not about the writer. No one is forcing anyone to write a review, let it be easy, so before others have to read a penetrating nonsense.
