Our take on the TP-Link Tapo C246D Indoor/Outdoor Dual Lens Pan/Tilt Camera

The Tapo C246D is an indoor/outdoor pan/tilt camera with two lenses: a wide 2.8 mm fixed lens covering a 125.5° diagonal view and a 6.0 mm pan/tilt lens that zooms in on detail. It records 2K video at 2304 × 1296 and adds color night vision plus 850 nm IR up to 40 ft. A microSD slot takes cards up to 512 GB, so it can record without a subscription. It suits people who want one camera to watch a wide area and still read a face or plate, where single-lens pan/tilt rivals have to choose between coverage and detail.

About the TP-Link Tapo C246D Indoor/Outdoor Dual Lens Pan/Tilt Camera

For low light, it has 850 nm infrared LEDs with a range of 40 ft (12 m) and color night vision. An IR-cut filter switches automatically between day and night modes. It also has 3DNR and WDR image enhancement.
