Opps the user that made this thread is myself. I used my phone and didn't realize that I didn't use the right account. Anyway
The camera is question is the I51 CK.. 5mp Pan Tilt Zoom 20x. While it isn't the greatest Quality for the Price it is hard to beat. It looks like I will have to make some creative mounting for this to fit my needs. I personally don't understand why the camera couldn't have come with a shorter mount for top mounting. Also the design for the current mount makes it so the cables would exit the front of the camera if you mount to the top again not a great design. But with the cost again camera has a good quality picture for what it lacks.

So something that others that might read about this camera before they buy. Keep in mind that there is nothing really to change the way the camera Detects Humans and as such you will get events and tonight getting alerts about Skunks and Racoon (The Masked Bandit) being detected has human and even as much as changing the camera from IR to Color White lights and following them around lol.
Even this from earlier in the day. IF you don't know about these birds don't worry it isn't sick they do this every year at the end of summer.. They are fed and watered well here.

Also anyone with the camera that has the issue of the camera changing to -4:00 in time settings? I have to always make a change in the cameras settings back to -5:00 and this didn't seem to be an issue before the camera had me do the Update to it. After the update the camera worked for about 20 min then went off line for 20 or 30min. Every since the update it keeps changing the time back to -4:00 and I don't have anything setup for that.
Also wish there was a way I could turn down the White LEDs if I wanted to use color at night. I mean the IR works with Zoom. Like one of my other brand 20x zoom 2mp PTZ's has the ability to zoom to brighter IR at night. However if I turn on the white only and put the cameras view point in the direction of one of my other brand AI Color at night White LEDS 4 led camera the Annke cameras LEDs are so bright it turns off the White Leds of my 4mp AI camera. It also kind of looks like the cameras White LEDs might have been setup (Designed) to work with near and far because if you look at the LED lens there is one pair that is clear and one pair that is frosted. My guess is to help with the spread of the White LEDs light. Not sure just guessing..
