Top of the market

This is my second set of defender cameras. My first set I got over 10 years ago and I was really pleased with them so I decided to upgrade and get the newest version. This 4K system is absolutely amazing. The quality of the photos, the video, and my favorite part of it all is the motion sensors that I get alerts for directly to my phone. I strongly recommend anyone in the market for a great security camera system defender is the one.

2 systems installed - happy customers!

We had 2, 16 camera systems installed in our business. They replaced our older system. The installation of the cameras was quite simple and the set up took little time. From a security perspective, we are pleased with the high quality of the video/feed and in reviewing past recordings, we found it easy to go back and find specific dates for review. Over the years we have had three systems and following our research, we are certainly pleased with the Sentinel Defender camera systems.

Great Security Camera with great features

This is a great security camera with great features. The hardware is pretty good and easy to connect. The setting up the devices app is very smooth. The instructions are pretty accurate. The features of camera like setting up the color of the video recording and images is outstanding. Motion detection and night vision which are the main best features of the security camera is excellent. The only downside of this, is that this is wired camera therefore installing this by yourself is not that easy. If you want to run the wires clean in the house you have to do it in the ceiling along with electrical wirings and it may require professionals. For DIYers can still be done with a careful consideration of the aesthetic of the house. Other than that this security camera is perfect for the price and its features.

Fantastic functionality and easy to use.

This ptz camera system is excellent. I've used many systems professionally in the past. This home system is on par with many far more expensive setups regarding functionality, ease of use and variety of features. Picture quality is crisp and the app and NVR is easy to set up and use!

Best Image we ever had

The daytime images are crystal clear and detailed. The night vision is very good close to the house but a bit blurry farther away. That's the same as most other systems. The motion detectors are very sensitive. We had a good laugh because the alarm would go off for our backyard saying a human was detected. It ended up being our smoker with the cover flapping in the wind. After moving it a little, everything was fine. The app works well and you can handle most of the NVR functionality from it. The only thing we miss is 2-way sound cameras. We would have used those in place of the 2 pointing at our doors. We would recommend this system to anyone wanting good day & night coverage for your home or business.

2nd system

this is my second Defender system, the first being the 2k wireless. the difference between these two so far is night and day. a little more work to set up but worth it. down the road i'll be replacing the 2k system with another of these 4k nvr systems. hoping to have a video review up on youtube soon

Fantastic Camera System! Excellent picture quality

I purchased this system to upgrade my old camera system. The picture quality is top notch during day or night vision. The audio was also an upgrade as my old system did not have any audio capability. The app is also very powerful and quick. The ability to see, monitor and make changes from my phone is very convenient. I love this system and would recommend this and purchase this again.

Simple, good quality video system

The video quality on this system is great and setup is a breeze. Motion detection is somewhat hit-and-miss so as part of a security system you would still want more precise intrusion sensors, however, this works great to provide recordings of past/event activity for future reference.

The product works well and is very easy to install

I bought this camera system about 3 months ago and it has worked flawlessly since the beginning. It was very easy to install and the support is very responsive if you have any trouble. I own two defender camera systems and they both have been great. I would recommend them without hesitation.

A great system to start with or to upgrade to!

We've used Defender systems for many years and run a number of their systems and devices. We recently updated to the Defender 4K Sentinel POE system and pleased to have done so! The setup was simple, well documented, great image quality, ease of updates and love the functionality coupled with the Defender Empower App, that we use on both IOS and Android devices.
