Best camera brand for indoor & outdoor camera setup?
apartment You can't run PoE because of this most likely, so you are cooked and will have to use plugged-in Wi-Fi cameras. They are not reliable but it is what it is, you can't do much about it because PoE requires drilling holes. battery powered Don't. Stick with plugged-in Wi-Fi. My suggestion for

Is Reolink really the best overall for a reliable, non-subscription security system for newbies? After going through past posts in this sub, Reolink seems to be the most recommended. But in reading some negative reviews on Amazon, I want to be sure it really is the best option.
IMO Reolink CX410W is the best Wi-Fi camera but it doesn't have IR night vision and can only be used in areas with proper lighting at night. So if it is pitch black at night where you are do not use this camera. It is better for short distances as well. For IR night vision that's Wi-Fi, the best is

DIY camera setup for... birds.
Use a Reolink camera, there's several models you can use for this and I see that many people use them for the bird stuff in their subreddit. Just make sure it is PoE, it is just better. Technically you can also just run a Wi-Fi (this is non critical surveillance after all) but make sure it is plugge

Motion sensor light with wifi camera/sd card
RLC-810WA or Reolink Duo Floodlight Wi-Fi if you have poor lighting at night/it is pitch black. If you have good lighting at night then CX410W or Reolink Altas PT Ultra, this last if you want the battery backup.

Reolink cameras
Hi, Did you manage to find a working config for your RLC-810WA? I have the same model and really struggling. The error logs appear to suggest ffmpeg is crashing due to incomplete data being received, and the camera is currently connected via WiFi, but works mostly well in the Reolink App? I've run e

Indoor WiFi ONVIF Camera with some sort of night vision?
Fair enough. Maybe reolink E1 zoom, the 5 MP version has ONVIF/RTSP or RLC-810WA if you want higher resolution. Don't expect much from the performance at night, IR models from reolink do not perform that well at night (lots of ghosting compared to what you have) but they are excellent at day. The CX

i need the best quality security camera on the market (at an affordable price)
$200 budget puts you at reolink, eufy, or tapo with an SD card. I'm assuming you can run power to them and not an Ethernet cable? Reolink RLC-810WA Reolink track mix wifi Tapo c560ws You don't want an ultra wide camera being so far away from your car and PTZ cameras typically have more narrow fields
