No more Axis 206w

Post by delaforet »

Hello,
I was looking for a wireless camera and James told to go for the axis 206w. I called the axis company but they told me that they have stopped producing this camera. In replacement they are preparing the 207w which should be ready for the beginning of February. :(
As i can't wait until february would you recommend me other models of wifi cams models ?

For example, i've just found the d-link DCS-5300G which is a wifi camera and also a rotative one, is there some of you who had already experiened with this camera ?

Best regards,

JJ

Hello James,
Thank you for your answer.
The blc30 seems to be great. While i was reading the specs of it i saw that it was supporting tilt and pan rotation, will it possible to control it thru zone minder ?

Best regards,

JJ

FYI - the 207w works great with ZM, as with all the other Axis cams I've used.
