Hi all,
I am looking for recommendations for the best (based off your real world experience) wifi outdoor camera. Hard wired cameras are not an option for me unfortunately. Preferably no brand that requires an account or cloud connection.
Most of the amcrest cameras have rtsp and don’t require cloud access, in fact I block mine from WAN altogether.
I have one wired POE outdoor camera and one wireless inside camera from them. Both are great cameras that I can fully control locally. Just make sure it has rtsp, because I’m not sure if every model they make has it.

No trolling.
