Buying Guide For A PTZ Camera
Check your device on the following counts.
Resolution– If the resolution is high, it means images and footage are clear. A high-resolution device must be your preference.
Digital Zoom– Check the zoom in and zoom out. If the image is getting blurred by 2x or 3x zooming in and out, then the far-away object can not be identified clearly.
Night-Vision– Check the spotlight or floodlight of your camera. Maybe your camera is an IR LED attached. EXIR LEDs’ performance is better than normal LEDs. Know the night mode of your camera.
IP Cameras & PoEs– IP Cam is the latest and modern range. Installation is easy, and picture quality is the best. Go for IP appliances only. IP Cameras are network-based security cameras that communicate over a computer network to send a data signal back to the recorder.
The data signal may consist of video, & audio. Here, the power and data cable is the same. You don’t have to run separate cabling for both.
Waterproofing– Check that your cam must be weather and vandal proof. Any outdoor cam has to face tough weather conditions. Your device must withstand it.
WiFi– A wifi cam is easy to connect and operate from a remote location than a wired cam. A wireless device is always beneficial.
Warranty- If any glitch occurs while using the device, then what is the replacement or services policy of the company.

Users Responses & Feedbacks
Mr. & Mrs K from the USA says that
- I have several concerns about this cam’s software options. Purchasers should not need to trust this manufacturer with network access or “precise location” information on mobile apps (android might not even ask you). There’s no way we should trust the PC app.
- You cannot opt out of these unnecessary disclosures. Once on your network and with your precise location, the manufacturer or hackers thereof have access to your network, know exactly where your network is on the globe, and could do who-knows-what on your PC. Also, this requires a verified email account, even if you have no interest in the online services.
- I’d be OK with AP mode only, no company account required, no location info, on an iOS app. Also, web tech exists to support the installation less browser only web app hosted from the device itself WITH streaming video. And supporting that software would probably be cheaper for the manufacturer and be more portable to various computer systems, rather than just Windows.
LAWLF says that
- I purchased the 5MP Outdoor Security Cam, TOCWOC Pan / Tilt Home Surveillance Cam, Waterproof Wi-Fi Cam with Color Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, AI Human Detection, Auto Tracking, and Slot Storage in cloud / SD because I am buying outdoor cams to put at every door around my house.
- This cam comes with very good instructions and my son was able to install it easily. So far it is working as it should and the picture is very sharp and clear. I do love the 2-way audio system so I can talk to who is outside if I choose. Great camera.
George Starr From The USA Says
- I got two of these, they work, and for 33$ I don’t mind adding them as extra cams on our system. I have 12 static 2mp cam and 2 nice 5mp PTZ’s (20x) already and this one will be more of an on the porch cam replacement as the resolution is better than the OLD cam I have there.
- Not too bad to set up. The motion tracking works so no complaints there. I’m going to see if I can get it working on My DVR, that’s my real test. The cam itself is just cheap plastic, I’ll be installing them under a porch so most of the weather will be off of them. I think these cams are best suited to indoor use but time will tell.
- What sold me is the 4k resolution and the ability to have a wired ethernet connection that should let me hook it onto our DVR. One dislike is that for Wifi it requires a 2.4ghz connection and will not work with 5g.
Should I Buy It?
If you are looking for an outdoor CCTV Camera with panning, tilting, and zooming, plus you want to use it as a standalone camera, then definitely you should give it a chance. The product is reliable, company support is good, features are very useful, and users’ reviews are favorable. The only issue is that the cam case is not very strong. So, it can be vandalized easily.
Conclusion
The TOCWOC PTZ cam is a low-range device. It can tilt, pan and zoom to give you all-around coverage. The 2-way talk helps keep you alert. 3 kinds of night-vision are there for your security.
A 5MP Cam with 2560X1920 resolution gives us a clear vision. The access system can detect human motion from other movements. These features stand it out from the other devices.
